!!!Emacs, of course.

And not just boring old GNU Emacs, but new improved, easier on the eyes, gets your clothes cleaner Xemacs!

So here's my [.emacs|http://www.hollenback.net/emacs/emacs.el] file and the [.emacstuff|http://www.hollenback.net/emacs/emacstuff.tgz] directory that goes with it.

You actually just need the .emacstuff directory if you want to use this.  Here's what to do:

* Download emacstuff.tgz and untar it as ~/.emacstuff
* Make a link between .emacstuff/dotemacs.el and ~/.emacs:
	ln -s ~/.emacstuff/dotemacs.el ~/.emacs
* Create a ~/.private.el file that looks something like:

  (setq user-full-name "Jonh Q. Luser")
  (setq user-mail-address "john@foobar.com")
  (setq mail-host-address "mail")
  (setq ldap-default-host "ldap")
  (setq ldap-host-parameters-alist (quote (("ldap.foobar.com" base ("ou=People,o=foobar.com"))))
  (setq ldap-default-base "ou=People,o=foobar.com")

* (optional) copy the contents of .emacstuff/Xdefaults into your ~/.Xdefaults file.

Note: while my .emacs tries to be compatible with GNU Emacs, you will probably find that a bunch of files are missing if you actually try to use it with Emacs.  That's because I assume that you use Xemacs' configuration mechanism to install a bunch of packages that don't come with GNU Emacs.

On the plus side, I do provide links to where you can get most of the packages I use inside my .emacs.

Here's a good place to start for Emacs info: [emacsWiki|http://www.emacswiki.org/]

EmacsTidy - a very handy emacs function for cleaning up HTML files.

Eight Megabytes and Constantly Swapping

Whoa! the .emacs is fantastic. However, the duplicate-region function uses dot-marker, which is obsolete and has been removed for a while now.

    (dot): Removed.
    (dot-marker): Removed.

use point-marker instead.
