Is ellama the recommended package to use for code assistance on emacs?

Is ellama the recommended package to use for code assistance on emacs? [@emacs](https://communick.news/c/emacs) I'm getting some useful results when asking questions to Mistral (via Brave Browser) when working with programming languages that I am learning. What is the current recommended approach to get it working with [#emacs](https://mastodon.communick.com/tags/emacs)?

So many cool posts about #emacs recently but I am not sure the microblog UI is the best for them. Ideally, I wish we could group AP actors to announce any activity by a certain hashtag, so they could

So many cool posts about [#emacs](https://mastodon.communick.com/tags/emacs) recently but I am not sure the microblog UI is the best for them. Ideally, I wish we could group AP actors to announce any activity by a certain hashtag, so they could become posts in something like [#lemmy](https://mastodon.communick.com/tags/lemmy) instead. In the meantime, how do I get more of this emacs conversation on [@emacs](https://communick.news/c/emacs) ?

MS-Windows Emacs Maintainers Needed https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2024-07/msg01072.html

Its been a few weeks, but I didn't see any post about it here. In case you aren't following the emacs-devel list, Eli Zaretskii, the current MS-Windows maintainer, is asking for anyone to take over day to day issue management and supporting the port as he's wanting to step down from the role.

customize syntax highlighting rules for certain keywords?

Take a look at the python code above. Because the word `filter` is a builtin function it gets highlighted differently than the rest of the code. The problem is, none of the occurrences of the word here relate to the builtin function and it semantically should not be any different from any other decorator or callable. I honestly think that this is a bug with the syntax highlighter (as it should be easy to discern between a built-in function call and a method from another class, but if I could just disable syntax highlighting in python-mode for the specific keyword, it should be fine? Is that possible to do in elisp?

To all evil-mode users, how do you work with vterm?

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/14012479 > To all evil-mode users, how do you work with vterm? > > As a long time Vimmer, I have recently started using Emacs out of sheer curiosity. I chose Doom Emacs as it has evil-mode enabled by default, and do not want to dive down the rabbit hole of configuring the editor from scratch (at least, not yet!). > > After installing and enabling `libvterm` in Emacs, I am having a frustrating experience. I configured ZSH shell to use vi-mode keybindings which interferes with evil-mode whenever I press `Esc` or `C-[`. > > After having searched a little, I came across a workaround to disable evil-mode when in vterm. But it is still not a smooth experience. For instance, when switching between buffers (`C-w C-w`). > > I would like to know how others in the community tackled this problem. Is there a better solution to this problem? Or have you made peace with the aforementioned workaround? Or have you stopped using vterm entirely?

Rust/Go/Elixir/Rails developers using Emacs, please share your tips.

I'm trying to get out of my Python/Javascript comfort zone and start contributing to other Fediverse projects that are built in other languages. If you are already using Emacs for your dev work in any of the above languages, can you share perhaps your configuration or at least recommended packages for beginners, which prioritize sensible defaults and can be used with minimal amount of fussing?

Themes so good they actually made me shed a tear

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.sdf.org/post/10280862 > https://protesilaos.com/emacs/ef-themes-pictures > > Theme in picture is `ef-summer`. I love these so much. They're a breath of fresh air among the other techy-cyber-hacker themes, yknow?

Is this the only active Emacs community here?

The other ones seem less active than this one.

Okay I've declared bankruptcy

It's gotten too much. I think 1100 is a bit too much custom ELisp code. I also got to a point where my customization started interfering with Doom's core modules, yielded weird errors from time to time. I found out that Doom's defaults are actually beautiful and idk guys I feel refreshed, I'm ready now to _get shit done_, I can now _actually work™️_. I have offloaded the annoyances to Henrik. 2024 year of bankruptcy let's go

Emacs TTY super+number inserts IO characters!

Hi there, I want to try emacs in my terminal-based workflow. I use tiling window manager (i3 - qtile) in ubuntu so super+number changes the workspace. When starting an emacs with -nw, changing workspaces super+\[1, 2, 3, etc\] inserts "IOIOIO" characters in my buffer. Any ideas?

How to learn Emacs?

I am a newbie to emacs and Linux in general (started my linux journey 2 months ago) and want to learn emacs. Does anyone have good ressources to learn emacs as a beginner? Also should I use a distro like doom Emacs or should I do it from scratch
