I'm trying to put all my emacs configuration under version control in order to easily switch between different computers. Actually my preferred system is OSX (10.8.3) with emacs 24.3 from http://emacsformacosx.com/. But I can also work in other…
If my .emacs is empty or if it contains only the lines
(require 'cc-mode)
(add-to-list 'c-offsets-alist '(annotation-top-cont .0))
(add-hook 'java-mode-hook
'(lambda () (c-set-offset 'annotation-top-cont 0)))
then instead of having…
I've updated Emacs from 23.1 to 23.3 and it suddenly can no longer find my fonts (for example Liberation Mono). When I try to Options->Set Default Font... I'm prompted with a very bizarre choice of things some called using the format of "AxB", where…
I use this function for printing a buffer's content to PDF
(from my .emacs file:)
(defun print-to-pdf ()
(interactive)
(ps-spool-buffer-with-faces)

(kill-buffer "tmp.ps")

I used the package.el for emacs-23 file provided by technomancy on github and while I'm able to list the packages, whenever press "i" to install the package emacs simply moves the cursor to the next line. When I press "enter" on the package a new…
I want to set the indentation mode to tabs only, with a 4 character width for any mode. This seems like a trivial thing, but I have not had success. Every mode seems to have its own variables and options. I've tried doing this for Perl and R without…
I asked a question here, and got good responses, but the problem turned out to be different from what I had thought.
I am trying to assign a certain function to the key "C-c" in shell mode, but it seems that a minor mode called tabbar-mode has a…
I start with a file visible in one window; then i do a split-window, therefore now both windows show the same contents (at same buffer point).
Now I want to jump to a different location in the file via a bookmark in only 1 of the 2 windows, but…
I'm a newbie to emacs, just starting to like it - but today upon start up the following issue has rendered it unusable.
Problem:
When I move the cursor forward some, but not all, characters are rendered unreadable. The next letter on the line is…
Greetings,
I am reviewing some code in the Gauss programming language. In it, loops can begin with do and end with endo? How do I see which endo matches which do. I want to see an outline of the structure of the code. What would be really cool is to…

I use xterm and set its appearance in ~/.Xdefaults:
XTerm*background: paleTurquoise

I have been using Emacs from past few months and I like its line navigation feature a lot as it does't need you to use arrow keys.
Emacs Line Navigation:
C-p : go to previous line
C-n : go to next line
C-f : go forward one character
C-b : go…

And more details later on:
*** In multibyte buffers and strings, characters are represented by…
