The primary home for my “Lisp Books and Information” list is now lispmachine.net.

Oh yeah?

You think I’m sick?
You think I’m twisted?
You think I’m ill?

You’re right!

Here’s proof!

four days with Emacs

Wednesday, December 7th, 2005

So far, so good. Yesterday I finally stopped trying to use vi navigation keys by default.

The only problem I’ve found so far - I can’t get either Aquamacs or Carbon Emacs to remember my window-size settings! I have to resize the window every time I launch the program.

Here’s a screenshot of my home setup.

I’m comfortable enough in Emacs now that I got rid of the lines for VIP (vi navigation keys emulation) out of my .emacs. This is a huge milestone for me, as for years the only thing I knew how to do in Emacs was exit (C-x C-c).

I’ve got SLIME working great with CMUCL and SBCL, both on my colocated Solaris system and on the G5 here at the house.

I just aliased “vi” to “emacs” in my .bashrc, and I’m going to try to leave it that way for at least a week. Wish me luck…
