Jedi reference to programming with emacs

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 I'm pretty sure that I recall a quote somewhere comparing a programmer building an IDE with emacs being like a Jedi building their own lightsaber as a part of their training. I know it could sound like silly enthusiasm to some, but I kind of like that

front end to top?

hi there i'm looking for a emacs front end to top listing all the processes on the machine. doing it in a shell does work very well because with my shell configuration (TERM=emacs). or a process front end using ps could be ok as well. thansk a lot, olli

problem with vc-svn + tramp.

I am using emacs 22.0.50, running on a powerbook. When I use tramp to edit a file in a subversion directory by doing ssh onto a SUN workstation, it seems to automatically switch on the vc-svn mode. It then keeps failing, with the message vc-do-command: Running svn...FAILED (status 127) If

RE: char-width of a font? pixel-width of a future frame?

How do I find out either - what the (average) width of characters of a given font/fontset is? or `frame-char-width' or height gives the pixel width or height of the frame's default font. - what, given a set of frame-parameters (including font and width and height), what the pixel

How do I find out either - what the (average) width of characters of a given font/fontset is? or - what, given a set of frame-parameters (including font and width and height), what the pixel-width and pixel-height of a frame are going to be once it is created? I'm trying to put together a f
