The Emacs Club C tutorial
- Tomorrow
- Mish needs a partner to teach – Andrew volunteers
- We'll package a starter .emacs that will do some basic C configuration
-
Time budget is an issue – we want to introduce people to Emacs, but too much introductory material might prevent us from talking about specific things about C development in Emacs
- Benjamin's plan: spend 15 minutes demonstrating Emacs basics through C development and then dive into more advanced features
-
Do we do it on Eniac:
- Pros: this is what many 240 students (Windows users) have to use; it will force learning
- Cons: we don't know what people come in knowing
- Should we show them multiple windows? Yes, but in a simplified form
GDB, Mountain Lion, and Emacs: The Final Countdown
- Mountain Lion apparently breaks GDB in Emacs 24.
- See http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8336433/gdb-on-macosx-lion and http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10221448/emacs-24-and-gdb-6-3-on-mac-os-lion
Using emacsclient as a collaborative editing tool
- Building the .emacs for the C tutorial
- Surprisingly, it doesn't work very well
