    Dave Pearson: blogmore.el v4.0
    Despite having bumped it from 2.x to 3.x yesterday, I'm calling v4.0 on blogmore.el today. There's a good reason for this though. While tinkering with some of the configuration yesterday, and also answering a configuration question last night, I realised that it made sense to make some of the internals into public utility functions. Now, sure, Emacs Lisp doesn't really have internals in the private function sense, but I've always liked the approach that a package-- prefix communicates "internal, might go away" vs package- which tells me "this is a stable part of the API of this package". With this in mind I've always tried to write my code using this convention. I did this with blogmore.el too and a lot of the code had the blogmore-- prefix. There's plenty of code in there that someone mig…  ( 1 min )
    Chris Maiorana: The Emacs Way: Deleting Files
    I know it’s scary, but sometimes you have to delete files, and once they’re gone—they’re gone. I guess that was why GUI systems invented the trash folder. The trash is a safe place to store files you want to delete, just in case you made a mistake. In the UNIXy and Emacs worlds, once you delete that file, it’s gone, so you better have your story straight. UNIXy Way In UNIXy world, you can delete files with the trusty rm (remove) command, as follows: rm file.txt rm -rf directory/ Of course, once you have run that command, the file will be totally obliterated with no trace. While you should never do this, you should be aware of the dreaded nuclear solution to delete your whole filesystem from the root level: rm -rf /* Emacs Way The Emacs way of deleting files will also obliterate files entirely, but with dired you get the added safety of marking files first with the d key. Once you have made your selections, you can use the x key to execute the deletion operation You can also use capital D for immediate deletion. Likewise, if you wanted to run deletions interactively, you can run the functions directly: M-x delete-file M-x delete-directory So that’s how you can delete files using your command line, in UNIXy world, or your “dired” directory editor in Emacs.

    Irreal: Read Extended Command Prefix
    mentions how M-x shows a lot of commands many of which make no sense in the current context. This has never bothered me because after inputting a few (fuzzy) letters, the display converges on the command I’m looking for. Others, are not so sanguine and find the long list annoying. It turns out that there’s an easy fix for this: read-extended-command-prefix. As of Emacs 28, You can set this variable to one of 3 values—or nil​—to control the filtering of commands in the candidate list. These are: command-completion-default-include-p Exclude on those commands tagged for a different mode. command-completion-using-modes-and-keymaps-p Include only commands tagged for the current buffer and those commands that have a keybinding active in the current buffer. command-completion-using-modes-p Show only commands tagged for the current mode. The first option is the most conservative and general and is what Batsov recommends for everyday use. Batsov also explains how functions can declare what mode or modes they’re appropriate for. That’s simply a matter of listing them in the interactive declaration. There are a lot more details in Batsov’s post so be sure to take a look. The read-extended-command-prefix mechanism is similar to the execute-extended-command-for-buffer mechanism that I wrote about previously. As I said, the long list doesn’t bother me but if it annoys you, this may be the answer.  ( 5 min )
    Emacs Redux: The Many Faces of flet: cl-flet, cl-labels, and cl-letf
    Way back in 2013 I wrote about the deprecation of flet and how noflet could fill the gap. Thirteen years later, it’s probably time for a proper overview of what replaced flet in cl-lib and when to use each option. Emacs Lisp doesn’t have a built-in way to define local functions (the way let defines local variables), so cl-lib provides several macros for this. If you’ve ever been confused by cl-flet, cl-labels, and cl-letf – you’re not alone. The naming doesn’t make the distinctions obvious, and the documentation is a bit dry. Let’s try to fix that. A Bit of History The original flet (from the old cl package) let you temporarily override a function’s definition. It worked by swapping out the function’s symbol-function cell and restoring it when the body finished – essentially a dynamic let …  ( 3 min )

    Emacs Redux: Live Regexp Feedback with minibuffer-regexp-mode
    This is the third article in a small series inspired by my recent cleanup of Prelude and my personal Emacs configuration, following the ones on repeat-mode and read-extended-command-predicate. I’ve been going through the Emacs 28-30 changelogs for features I had ignored so far, and this one from Emacs 30 immediately caught my eye. Writing Emacs regexps has always been a bit of a dark art. Between the double-escaped backslashes and the various group syntaxes (\(...\), \(?:...\), \(?N:...\)), it’s easy to lose track of what you’re actually matching. You type something into query-replace-regexp, press RET, and hope for the best. Emacs 30 added minibuffer-regexp-mode, a minor mode that gives you live visual feedback as you compose a regexp in the minibuffer: (minibuffer-regexp-mode 1) When active, the mode highlights the structure of your regexp as you type it in the minibuffer. Capture groups, character classes, and other constructs get color-coded so you can see at a glance whether your grouping is right. I find this particularly useful when building a regexp with multiple groups for query-replace-regexp, where you need to get the group numbering right for the replacement string (e.g., \1, \2). The visual feedback makes it obvious which group is which. How Does This Compare to re-builder? You might be wondering how this compares to re-builder (M-x re-builder). They’re complementary, really. re-builder shows matches in the buffer as you type a regexp in a dedicated editing window – great for developing complex patterns against actual text. minibuffer-regexp-mode, on the other hand, highlights the regexp itself in the minibuffer. It kicks in automatically whenever you’re prompted for a regexp (e.g., isearch-forward-regexp, query-replace-regexp, keep-lines, etc.). One helps you see what your regexp matches; the other helps you see what your regexp says. I’d suggest using both. That’s all I have for you today. Keep hacking!  ( 2 min )

    Protesilaos Stavrou: Emacs live stream for writing Denote tests and more on Monday 6 April @ 20:00 Europe/Athens
    Raw link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vunpn7ovEOc [ The stream will be recorded. You can watch it later. ] Tonight I will work on my denote package. There is a feature branch I implemented this morning and am now ready to continue refining the code. The immediate goals: Update unit tests that are still calling deprecated functions. Write new tests, starting with the denote-dired command and all its ancillary functions. Review all the commands that filter the query buffers (which are produced by commands such as denote-grep, denote-backlinks, denote-query-contents-link). Edit the manual accordingly. I expect the stream to go on for 2-3 hours, but we will see. I will keep the chat open in case there are any comments. I am happy to respond to them.  ( 1 min )

A: In an indirect buffer from Org Mode source block with your favorite eval function like eval-defun (hint)nope C-c ' (org-edit-special) inside the block; execute the defun with C-M-x (eval-defun), C-x C-e (eval-last-sexp), or eval-buffer.

    Dave Pearson: blogmore.el v3.1
    When I first started writing blogmore.el it was just going to be a handful of commands that let me spin up a new blog post, and insert the odd link here and there when needed. Initially it only handled a single blog, and everything it did was based around how I lay my personal blog out, and was also very much geared to how I'd made BlogMore work. But then I wanted to use it to edit both my personal blog and my photoblog. So then I had to add support for configuring different ways of laying out posts for different blogs, etc. Still, it was mostly written as a personal tool that worked for my stuff. I tried to make it so that it was easy enough to configure (and let's be fair: it's for Emacs and written in Emacs Lisp, it's kind of hard to not be very configurable if you're happy to get your …  ( 3 min )
    Irreal: Repeat Mode
    .. Sadly, Emacs doesn’t have anything similar. There are a couple of repeat commands: one for simple commands and another for “complex” commands but I was never able to internalize them. Happily, there is repeat mode that allows you to repeat a command by omitting the prefix and pressing the last key. For example, if you want to repeat the command to enlarge a window horizontally (Ctrl+x }) you can simply repeat the } as many times as needed. As Bozhidar Batsov explains, this doesn’t work with every key sequence but it is easy to add the functionality to multikey sequences. The TL;DR is that you have to provide a special keymap that maps the last key(s) to their action(s). Batsov has a worked example to show you how to do it. It’s not very hard. But, it turns out, it can be even easier. Omar Antolín explains in a comment that there is also a macro, defvar-keymap that abstracts all the boilerplate away and makes it really easy to define and install a new repeat map. Repeat mode still isn’t as nice as Vim’s repeat but it can reduce the friction of repeating certain commands. Take a look at Batsov’s post for the details. Update [2026-04-06 Mon 11:05]: Karthik Chikmagalur has an excellent write-up on repeat mode that shows it’s useful for much more than simply repeating a command. See his comment below.  ( 5 min )

    Trump Crashes Out At Supreme Court — See Generally

    James Endres Howell: My first advice! (in Emacs Lisp)
    2026 Apr 04 It was really fun to learn about advising Lisp functions to extend functionality in Emacs. My first use case was to run a custom function every time a certain function in Bastian Bechtold’s org-static-blog is called. Of course, I could customize that function directly in my own fork, but Lisp advice allows you to modify functions without clobbering them directly. This approach has aesthetic and practical advantages. But I’ve struggled to understand the concepts and implementation of advice. Today I posted to Mastodon about how excited I was to get my first working use, and Philip asked me to share the code. My problem was specifying HTML boilerplate that org-static-blog puts in each post when it publishes all the static files, using string variables like org-static-bl…  ( 2 min )
    Dave Pearson: blogmore.el v2.7
    There's no question that the experiment that is BlogMore has resulted in me blogging more. Although my previous setup wasn't exactly all friction, there's something about "owning" most of the tools and really knowing how they work, and being able to quickly modify them so they work "just so", that makes me more inclined to quickly write something up. I can see this if I look at the numbers in the archive for this blog. In March alone I wrote 43 posts; that's more than I wrote in any whole year, other than 2023. While I suspect this will start to calm down as work on BlogMore and blogmore.el settles down, I sense I'll be writing a bit more often for some time to come. Because of this I decided to do a little bit of housekeeping on the posts directory in the blog's source repository. Origina…  ( 2 min )
    Irreal: Congratulations Álvaro
    Journelly app that is my most used and useful iOS app. But of course, Ramírez has many other excellent apps, many of which are Emacs packages. In particular, there is his dwim-shell-command that allows you to automate shell commands—particularly those with complex invocations—from the comfort of Emacs. There’s also his take on music players, an uniform AI access app, and a lot more besides. You can check out his blog posts or take a look at his iOS/macOS/Emacs applications. He’s been an independent developer for some time but now he’s taken on a new role: fatherhood. He’s now the proud dad of a new son. He tells us that his output may slow down a bit because, after all, he has to start working on his son’s init.el.  ( 4 min )
    Dave Pearson: blogmore.el v2.6
    Like most people, I imagine, I first ran into transient when first using magit. I took to it pretty quickly and it's always made sense to me as a user interface. But... I've never used it for any code I've ever written. I think, incorrectly, I'd half assumed it was going to be some faff to set up, and of course for a good while it wasn't part of Emacs anyway. Given this, I'd always had it filed under the heading "that's so neat I'll give it a go one day but not at the moment". Meanwhile... ever since I did the last big revamp of my Emacs configuration, I found myself leaning into a command binding approach that does the whole prefix-letter-letter thing. For reasons I can't actually remember I fell into the habit of using F121 as my chosen prefix key. As such, over the past 10 or so years (…  ( 2 min )
    Emacs Redux: Declutter M-x with read-extended-command-predicate
    This is another article inspired by my recent cleanup of Prelude and my personal Emacs config, following the one on repeat-mode. I’ve been going through the Emacs 28-30 changelogs looking for features I had overlooked, and this small one from Emacs 28 turned out to be a real gem. Ever noticed how M-x shows you every command, including ones that make no sense in your current buffer? Org commands while editing Ruby, Magit commands in a shell buffer, that sort of thing. It’s not a huge deal if you know what you’re looking for, but it adds noise to the candidate list – especially if you’re using a completion framework like Vertico or Ivy that shows everything at a glance. Emacs 28 added a simple way to fix this: (setq read-extended-command-predicate #'command-completion-default-include-…  ( 3 min )
    Emacs Redux: Repeat Mode: Stop Repeating Yourself
    I’ve been going through the Emacs 28-30 changelogs recently as part of a big update to Prelude and my personal config, looking for features I never got around to trying. repeat-mode is one I wish I’d adopted sooner. How many times have you typed C-x o C-x o C-x o to cycle through a few windows? Or C-x { C-x { C-x { to keep shrinking one? All that prefix repetition is pure friction. repeat-mode is a built-in minor mode (Emacs 28+) that lets you drop the prefix after the first invocation and just keep pressing the final key. Enable it with one line: (repeat-mode 1) One important thing to understand – this doesn’t magically work for every key sequence. A command is only “repeatable” if it has been explicitly added to a repeat map. Emacs ships with repeat maps for a bunch of common built-i…  ( 2 min )

More here: https://sachachua.com/blog/2026/04/yayemacs-10-emacs-coaching-with-prot-packaging-emacs-lisp//. Our next meeting will be done live on the 16th of April 2026 at 10:30 America/Toronto, 17:30 Europe/Athens time: https://youtube.com/live/djE_pVlgDHg. I will check with Sacha how she imagines doing this. Though I am the laissez faire type, so will adapt as we go. [ Note that all my coaching sessions are private: I never share details of my meetings. This is an exception because Sacha asked me about it. ]  ( 1 min )
    Thanos Apollo: Bringing jabber.el Back From the Dead
    jabber.el is an XMPP client for Emacs, originally written in 2003. Development slowed over the years, though contributors kept the package working across Emacs releases. I took over as maintainer with the goal of modernizing the protocol support. Now, jabber.el is the most XEP-complete text-based client in existence. What Changed For those, like me, who count XEPs like Pokemon: OMEMO encryption (XEP-0384) via a C dynamic module wrapping picomemo OMEMO media sharing (XEP-0454) OpenPGP for XMPP (XEP-0373) using Emacs’ built-in EPG Stream Management (XEP-0198) with session resume Message Archive Management (XEP-0313) Message Carbons (XEP-0280) Delivery Receipts (XEP-0184) and Chat Markers (XEP-0333) Message Correction (XEP-0308), Replies (XEP-0461), Moderation (XEP-0424/0425) Chat State Notif…  ( 3 min )
    Thanos Apollo: Gnosis 0.10: Import Anki, Merge Everything Into One
    You can now import Anki decks into gnosis. The entire Anki ecosystem, thousands of community-maintained decks across every subject, is accessible from Emacs. I can finally keep track of the AnKing deck changes. If you can’t beat them, import them. Anki import gnosis-anki-import reads .apkg files and converts them into gnosis themata. It resolves Anki’s note type templates to extract question/answer pairs, normalizes tags, and strips Anki system tags like marked and leech. Re-importing the same deck is safe. Each imported note keeps its Anki GUID, so gnosis detects duplicates and skips them. When AnKing pushes an update, I just re-import and only the new notes come in. Tens of thousands of notes & themata, managed from a text editor. As it should be. One package, one database org-gnosis…  ( 3 min )
    Dave Pearson: nukneval.el v1.3
    Back when I first really got into writing Emacs Lisp code, one of the first things I got very used to and really fell in love with was being able to eval-last-sexp (C-x C-e) the code I was writing, either to test it right there in the buffer, or to cause it to be bound so I could use it elsewhere. It was so different from any other mode of working I'd used before and it was really addictive as a way of hacking on code. Also quite quickly I got used to the fact that eval-last-sexp wasn't so helpful with things like a defvar or a defconst, if I was changing them up to try out new ways of doing things with the code I was working on; there I had to remember to get used to using eval-defun (C-M-x). Hardly a great problem, but something to keep in mind1. Pretty quickly, as I worked on longer packages, I found myself wanting to, in effect, unload a whole buffer of code and evaluate it again. From this desire came nukneval.el. The original version of this has been sat around since 2002 or so, perhaps a little earlier, and has served me well every time I've been messing with a new package. While I suspect there is (now, perhaps was then too?) a better way of doing things, the approach used in nukneval helped me learn some things and served me well (and still does). Now it's muscle-memory to run it. The way it works is quite simple: go to the start of a buffer, read each form, check if the car is of a given list of symbols, decide if it's something I want to unbind, and then pick either makunbound or fmakunbound and use that on the symbol. Finally, once the end of the buffer has been hit: eval-buffer. I've just released v1.3 as part of my slow wander through my old Emacs Lisp packages, with this release cleaning up a deprecated use of setf to move point, and also rewriting the code so it's a bit cleaner and also gives better feedback. Bozhidar Batsov recently wrote a good post covering these sorts of issues. ↩  ( 1 min )
    Dave Pearson: make-phony.el v1.3
    A wee bit over 5 years back I wrote a tiny package to quickly insert PHONY target markers into a Makefile. While it's far from my most-used package, it's one that gets a call on occasion, so it's one I still carry around in my Emacs configuration. Given I'm currently engaging in a slow background process of cleaning up some of my Emacs Lisp packages, removing some obsoleted practices, I've given make-phony.el a little bit of attention. As well as dropping the use of setf to set point to the start of a line, I also tweaked the code a little so that it only inserts a PHONY if there isn't already one there. While that's hardly been a problem for me, it just felt like a neat bit of cleaning up to how it works.  ( 1 min )

    As Media Matters previously reported last October about Richard Mack, leader of the Constitutional Sheriffs and Peace Officers Association: Mack is a former Arizona county sheriff and the founder of the Constitutional Sheriffs and Peace Officers Association, an organization which subscribes to the ideology that sheriffs “should be the ultimate law enforcement authority in the U.S.” The organization claims that sheriffs have the “Constitutional authority to check and balance all levels of government,” superseding “any agent, officer, elected official or employee from any level of government when in the jurisdiction of the county.” Constitutional scholars and other experts dispute this assertion, with some noting that the Constitution doesn’t mention sheriffs at all. Mack and CSPOA have pushed for sheriffs to get involved with mass deportation efforts, even holding the organization’s November national conference in Washington state in part because its attorney general is suing a sheriff for aiding the Trump administration’s deportation efforts. Mack also said he has been talking to Homan about “getting sheriffs involved in deportation.”  ( 3 min )
    CBS axed its last climate reporting pillar
    CBS News is laying off national environmental correspondent David Schechter, reportedly leaving no one at the network dedicated to covering climate change. That means that when CBS does cover the issue, the reporting will be more likely to omit scientific context and elevate misleading or contrarian framing, a shift already visible in the network's limited coverage so far in 2026.  ( 4 min )
    Right-wing media’s heinous rhetoric against people experiencing homelessness
    Right-wing media have a long history of attacking homeless people, and so far 2026 has seen a continuation of that trend. Pundits have called for sending homeless people to different countries, “internment camps,” and institutions. Right-wing media figures have also pushed dehumanizing rhetoric by referring to homeless people as “bums,” “blighty,” “junkies,” “mentally deranged,” and even joking about their deaths.  ( 5 min )
    Media Matters weekly newsletter, April 3

    Review: Burger King - Cinnamon Apple Pie
    Burger King's Cinnamon Apple Pie is a turnover-style fried pie with a bubbly, crispy crust and a warm, cinnamon apple filling. I paid $1.99 for one. Even though the exterior was warm-ish, the filling was piping hot with an intense cinnamon flavor. However, it was mostly sauce (which contributed to the heat retention) with a smattering of diced apple bits. The crust was too thick and didn't cook through properly. It was crisp on the outside but somewhat gummy in the middle. Overall, Burger King's Cinnamon Apple Pie was just okay for me. It's convenient if you happen to have a fried apple pie craving while at Burger King, but it made me miss McDonald's discontinued version.

    Protesilaos Stavrou: Emacs: new sequence scheme for the ‘denote-sequence’ package
    The denote-sequence package is an optional extension to denote that empowers users to write “sequence notes”, else “folgezettel”, in the style of Niklas Luhmann. Sequence notes are created in relation to other notes, as parent, child, or sibling. denote-sequence communicates such relationships by writing a “sequence” to the file name, in accordance with the Denote file-naming scheme (technically, it uses the optional SIGNATURE component of the file name, which is defined as a free-form field for users to use as they see fit—so this is just one application of it). The package supported two schemes before The exact presentation of such sequences is subject to the user option denote-sequence-scheme.

    Alvaro Ramirez: …and then there were three (expect delays)
    The other day, my partner and I went into the hospital as two and came out as three. This week, I became a father. From the second I cuddled this little fella, I felt like I'd known him my entire life. I love him so much. Since going indie dev full-time, I've enjoyed a great degree of flexibility to work on personal projects. This has enabled me to share more via blog posts and YouTube videos, but also dedicate more time to projects like agent-shell. It is now my most popular Emacs package, receiving lots of attention from users (bug reports, pull requests, discussion, etc). If you've been in touch recently and haven't heard from me, now you know why. Fatherhood is new to me. I'll need a little time to adjust while finding my footing. While my hope is to continue working on my indie projects, sustainability is now… errm, a tad more important. If you get value out of my work, please consider sponsoring. Better yet, if you use my tools at work, consider getting your employer to sponsor me instead. I also run a blogging service and offer a handful of iOS/macOS apps. If you're keen to journal or take quick notes on iOS, Journelly is my take on it. Bonus points for Emacs users, as it saves entries to an org file. Now, please excuse me while I start crafting my son's first init.el… ps.

    Dave Pearson: blogmore.el v2.5
    Following on from yesterday's release, I've bumped blogmore.el to v2.5. The main change to the package is the thing I mentioned yesterday about the toggle of the draft status. The draft toggle yesterday was pretty simple, with it working like: If there is no draft frontmatter, draft: true is added If there is any draft frontmatter, it is removed This meant that if you had draft: false set and you went to toggle, it would be removed, which is the same as setting it to draft: false. Unlikely to generally be an issue, but I also couldn't let that stay like that. It bothered me. So now it works as you'd expect: If there is no draft frontmatter, draft: true is added If draft: true is there, it is removed If draft: false is there, it is set to draft: true Much better. Another change is that I fi…  ( 1 min )
    Irreal: Your Commit Messages Should Tell A story
    making Git commit messages with Magit. Well crafted commit messages, he says, can tell a story about your project than can valuable in the future. The secret is in the “well crafted” part. Rather than a bunch of messages like “Small edits” or “tweaked the foobar”, your commit message should describe what you actually did. Maiorana is a writer and his examples reflect a writing project rather than coding but everything he says applies regardless of what type of files you’re committing. Take a look at his post for examples of both good and bad commit messages. The other nice thing about his post is that he shows how to use Git reporting to do some rough analysis. Magit, of course, has easy ways of doing this. Again, see Maiorana’s post for the details. Finally, he offers some suggestions for writing better commit messages. These are aimed more at the story writer than the coder but, again, they can help someone writing code too; I must admit to being guilty of writing terrible commit messages, especially for my blog posts. I’m very apt to use Maiorana’s example of “minor edit” instead of saying what I actually fixed. Sometimes, it just fixing a typo in which case “fixed typo” is fine but usually it’s something more extensive and a meaningful commit message helps me locate the commit I’m looking for.  ( 5 min )

    Arby's Serves Up New French Dip Royale
    Arby's launches the new French Dip Royale as a premium take on the fast-food chain's signature French Dip & Swiss sandwich. The French Dip Royale features thin-sliced roast beef, melted provolone cheese, seasoned caramelized onion, steak seasoning, and garlic aioli, served on a toasted sub roll with au jus on the side for dipping. It is available now for a limited time at participating locations nationwide. In comparison, the chain's regular French Dip consists of thin-sliced roast beef and melted Swiss cheese on a toasted sub roll with au jus on the side. Prices vary, but the French Dip Royale costs $8.69 at an Arby's here in Los Angeles (which means it's closer to $7.50 in most markets; it's $7.49 in Louisville). Photo via Arby's.

    Dave Pearson: blogmore.el v2.4
    I've just released a little update to blogmore.el, adding blogmore-toggle-draft as a command. This came about in connection with the feature request that resulted in BlogMore v2.7.0 being released. While I don't personally use draft for my posts, I can see the utility of it and if someone were to happen to use blogmore.el, it could be useful to have this bound to a handy key combination. As for how it works: that's simple. When run, if there is no draft: frontmatter property, then draft: true is added. If draft: is there it is removed. Yes, it does mean that it will also remove draft: false too but... eh. Okay, fine, I might handle that case as a followup but I couldn't really imagine someone wanting to keep draft: false in the frontmatter.

While I'd obviously created and added to and tinkered with my ~/.emacs some, I'd never written any non-trivial code. I feel it was around 1998 or 1999 that I really started to get into trying to write actual extensions, thanks to that book. I can't remember what the first complete package was. I think it was actually 5x5.el2 but it might also have been binclock.el. Honestly, it's so long ago now that I don't have any good recollection and I don't have any record3. All of which is to say, binclock.el is one of my oldest bits of Emacs Lisp code, so it seemed fair that while I'm cleaning things up, I should give it a tidy too. For anyone curious: it's a very simple binary clock type of thing. It opens a very small window and, depending on your settings, shows the time in various ways, all of which are in some way a binary display. I can't say I've honestly ever had it running for more than a few moments, as an amusement, but I do remember it being a really helpful body of code to work on to help get familiar with Elisp. So, 27 years on from when I first opened the buffer to create it, it's tweaked and tidied and hopefully ready for another 27. Would be cool if I'm around long enough to give it yet another tweak then. I first met it on OS/2 of all places, in 1994, or thereabouts. ↩ Yes, the one that became Tools > Games > 5x5. ↩ If I was using version control at all then, it was probably just rcs. ↩  ( 1 min )
    Dave Pearson: obfusurl.el v2.2
    This bit of Emacs Lisp absolutely comes from a more innocent time on the Internet. Looking at it, it seems I wrote the first version, at least as a proper package, back in 2001. It's very possible that I carried a non-package version of it around as part of dp-lib.el1 for some time before, so it might date from the late 1990s. While we weren't absolutely innocent back then, the idea of a slightly-risky-looking URL wasn't quite so bad as it is now. So obfusurl.el came about from my time on Usenet, where sometimes you'd want to post a URL that would otherwise be a spoiler. This package was my solution to that. It's a simple idea: keep the protocol and domain and so on visible, just hide the remaining part. So rather than post: https://blog.davep.org/about/ You'd post: https://blog.davep.org/%61%62%6f%75%74/ I suppose this is still useful today, although I would expect a lot of people to be way less likely to want to attempt that click -- readable domain or not. But, anyway, the code needed a tidy and cleanup for today's Emacs and Emacs Lisp. So obfusurl.el v2.2 now exists. For a good chunk of my first decade of using Emacs, I carried a lot of personal code around in a rather large "library" file. ↩  ( 1 min )

    On Stewart Brand’s Maintenance: Of Everything
    I was thankful to read Marcin Wichary’s review of Stewart Brand’s Maintenance: Of Everything. I first heard about the book months and months ago; it sounded potentially interesting but I was afraid it was going to suffer from a now-familiar myopia of the “tech” old guard. Wichary writes: I will just say it: I wish the author was more woke. The book is very male-coded. The main chosen areas of investigation are: motorcycles! tanks! guns! wars! There are moments towards the end where Elon Musk and Bill Gates are talked about as if it was still 15 years ago and we haven’t actually learned anything since. (No word of Cybertruck, either.)

    “All of Humanity’s Problems Stem From Marc Andreessen’s Inability to Sit Quietly in a Room Alone”
    Tech investor and billionaire Marc Andreessen has many bad opinions (as evidenced by his investment portfolio). On a recent podcast, he shared a real boner: that he isn’t introspective, that people 400 years ago weren’t at all introspective, and that introspection was a construct invented by Freud in the early 1900s. If you’ve read one (1) book, it’s not difficult to see what is wrong with Andreessen’s assertion and The Nation’s David Futrelle does a good job of rebutting it (archive link). But importantly, he also talks about why Andreessen might say such a thing (either because he honestly believes it or he’s performing the belief): When you examine your own motivations, desires, and inner life, neuroscientists have discovered, you are using the same parts of the brain that allow you to understand the motivations, desires, and inner lives of others. This means in turn that when you wall off access to your own inner life you also impair your capacity to imaginatively inhabit the experience of other people. Zero introspection is not just a personal quirk or a supposed productivity hack. It’s a permission slip for zero accountability. And Andreessen, it turns out, has good reasons for wanting to avoid accountability. His firm has bet big on war and the companies that provide the technology behind it… Futrelle goes on to add: A man with enormous influence over the technologies of war and surveillance, over the political direction of the country, over the infrastructure of violence that his firm has spent a decade funding, has, in effect, announced that he has no interest in examining his conscience. Andreessen has built the perfect ideology for Silicon Valley in the Trump age: Move fast, break people, and don’t devote even a moment to self-examination. As a commenter said on the video snippet I linked to above: “He’s just describing psychopathy. Zero introspection, zero remorse, 100% actions that benefit you.” Tags: David Futrelle · Marc Andreessen · politics  ( 6 min )

    The US Is the Last Big Petrostate
    In a conversation with economist Paul Krugman, climate journalist David Roberts asserts that the United States and China are going in different directions in energy, one forwards and one back. One of the grand international stories right now — though it’s very hard when you’re in the midst of as much chaos and insanity as we are to get clear about the big narratives — is that the US is basically aligning itself as the last big petrostate. We’re going to go down with the fossil fuel ship, and China is aligning itself as the first electrostate. It is rapidly electrifying its economy, and it is dominating the technologies that enable an electrostate: batteries, EVs, etc., all that stuff. So where do you think the future lies? All these emerging nations right now are stuck on coal. The story the US is trying to tell you is “shift to LNG. It’s cleaner than coal.” You’ll get some emission reductions. And then, basically, you’ll become dependent on our LNG. And for emerging nations, that’s an enormous 50 year investment program. They’re thinking now, “well, where is the energy situation going to be in 50 years? Do we think that fossil fuels are going to win in 50 years?” By launching this war, I think we have accelerated the process of pushing emerging nations into China’s arms and faster toward clean energy. That’s going to be the big effect of all this. Tags: climate crisis · David Roberts · energy · Paul Krugman  ( 2 min )

    Dave Pearson: eg.el v1.2
    Okay, that's it then; this is turning into a thing I think. Second in an occasional series of posts where I tidy up some of my old Emacs packages. This time I dug out eg.el and cleaned up some of the frowned-upon behaviour. For anyone who doesn't know it: eg.el is one of many Norton Guide readers I've written over the years. This particular one was possibly the most fun as it was the most unlikely one to write and also, I think it's fair to say, my most ambitious one as well. It also holds a special place for me in that the bulk of it was written on trains during multiple trips up to Scotland, before I finally moved here (on the MacBook Air I mentioned the other day). As I look at it now, I sort of want to give it a proper revisit. I've written more Norton Guide code since (see AgiNG for example) and have learnt better ways to handle certain things, and I also have an even bigger Norton Guide collection to test against. All of this could make for an even better Emacs implementation. I also suspect that, this time around, I can do a better job of handling the colour and retaining the original Norton Guide reader look and feel. But, for now, the code has been tidied up and should keep working for some time yet.  ( 1 min )
    Sacha Chua: Thinking about Emacs coaching goals with Prot

Following up on Emacs Carnival March 2026: Mistakes and learning to reach out: I want to get better at learning with other people's help, so I'm going to experiment with engaging Prot as an Emacs coach. Our first session is this week. Time to lay the groundwork! If I meet with Prot twice a month for three months, that's a budget of €60 (~CAD 100), which is a reasonable size for an experiment especially since I still have the budget set aside from the Google Open Source Peer Bonus and lovely folks already donated to cover the costs for EmacsConf. When I schedule something with someone, the accountability makes it easier to get stuff done and out the door. For this, a real person is much better tha…  ( 4 min )
    Dave Pearson: thinks.el v1.13
    Given the recent spate of hacking on some Emacs Lisp, I've got a real taste for hacking on some more. Or, more to the point, revisiting some of the packages I have in Melpa and tidying them up where necessary. The main thing I'll need to address is cutting back on all my old setf ways. I liked that approach to doing things, it made lots of sense and felt elegant; sadly the Emacs maintainers didn't seem to agree. So... kicking this off I've released v1.13 of thinks.el. This is a bit of nonsense I wrote back in the days when Usenet was still pretty busy and the place to be (well, okay, back in 2000 when I was still hanging out on Usenet). The package itself lets you quickly and easily... . o O ( ...write some text and then mark it all and then run a command and ) ( have it turned into something that looks a little like a thought ) ( bubble. ) It has some variations on how the bubble looks, and also lets you use customize to tweak the characters to use, and also has an "extra silly" mode too. Updating this wasn't too bad. Mostly just a case of turning some instances of (setf (point) ...) into (goto-char ...), and also modifying one instance of incf to be cl-incf. Honestly, I don't know how useful this package is to anyone anymore. Most folk don't even know what Usenet is these days, and all the "social" places seem to favour non-monospaced fonts, meaning the bubbles would look pretty terrible anyway. On the other hand, it seems a shame to not update it, and perhaps someone somewhere still uses it to make some pithy parenthetical remark, possibly about September never ending.  ( 1 min )
    Dave Pearson: blogmore.el v2.3
    I've bumped blogmore.el to v2.3. The main change in this release, which I've had on my mental to-do list for a couple of days now, revolves around categories, tags and case. I've got BlogMore set up so that it's pretty relaxed about case when it comes to categories and tags; so when it comes to generated files and URLs everything collapses to lowercase. However, blogmore.el wasn't taking this into account. While it wasn't a serious issue, it did have the side-effect that, if you had a tag of lisp and a tag of Lisp, both would appear in the list of tags you could complete from. Also, when you went to add a tag to the tags frontmatter (via the blogmore-add-tag command), if you selected Lisp and lisp was already there, you'd end up with both versions after the command finished. ℹ️ Note As mentioned earlier: BlogMore itself would collapse Lisp and lisp to the same tag; the downside here is you'd see both tags shown in the post itself. Not a real problem, just not very tidy. So earlier I changed things up a little; first cleaning up when loading pre-existing values and then ensuring the newly-set tags are deduplicated. This now means I can edit and update a post even faster, without needing to worry about accidentally duplicating tags. This in turn reduces the friction to writing a post for my blog. That is, after all, the whole point of the name of the package and the blogging tool it's connected to!  ( 1 min )
    Curtis McHale: Check Spelling in Emacs
    Spell checking in Emacs is one of those things that should just work but requires a bit of setup to get right, especially if you want a specific dictionary like Canadian English. This post walks through getting hunspell running in Doom Emacs with the keybindings you need to actually use it. Installing Hunspell Doom's spell module supports both aspell and hunspell. After looking around it seemed like hunspell had better dictionary support for non-US English variants, so it was my choice for Canadian spell checking. Hunspell is available for Ubuntu, Fedora, and macOS via Hombrew. I'm on NixOS so I'd add the two packages I need and then run sudo nixos-rebuild switch to get them installed. environment.systemPackages = with pkgs; [ hunspell hunspellDicts.en-ca ]; Enabling the Spell Module …  ( 2 min )

    Dave Pearson: blogmore.el v2.2
    It really feels like BlogMore has kicked off a whole new thing when it comes to personal hacking. During the past few years I've developed a lot of Python applications and libraries, and have had a ton of fun doing so, but during that time I've not really done anything with writing stuff for Emacs. To a large degree I think this says something about how stable Emacs is for me (I've been using it for a touch over 30 years at this point, you'd think I'd be kind of settled with it), but it's still always fun to have a reason to hack on some Lisp code. There's little doubt my Lisp -- especially Emacs Lisp -- has got a wee bit rusty. So I'm having a lot of fun at the moment falling into the rabbit hole of expanding on and tinkering with blogmore.el. The reason I've just made v2.2 is a good exam…  ( 2 min )
    Charles Choi: Announcing Anju
    The recent post “You don’t not need the mouse” by noa ks speaks to a sentiment that I’ve had for some time. Using the mouse in Emacs can be a good, daresay delightful, experience. Unfortunately though, Emacs has antiquated default settings that presume we’re all still using a 90’s style 3-button workstation mouse. In addition, the overreliance on reusing menu keymaps for both the main and context menus results in poor user experience. I feel strongly that context menus populated this way feel more like an inventory than a thoughtful selection of commands relevant to context. Thankfully, Emacs offers the mechanisms to sculpt mouse interactions to contemporary (circa 2026) expectations. Over the past three years, I’ve taken advantage of them to implement the following features: Mode Line Right mouse click on blank space to pop-up a window management menu Left mouse click on buffer name to pop-up a customizable list of buffers Double click on blank space to toggle current window to maximize or return to prior window configuration Context Menu Context-aware commands for selected text (use-region-p) Context-aware commands for Org and Dired mode Main Menu Add Bookmarks menu Reorganize Help menu Several months ago, I decided these mouse interaction changes should be generalized into a package that others could use. So began the Anju project. Today I’m happy to announce that Anju v1.0 is now available on MELPA. Learn more details about Anju in its User Guide. As Anju is new, I’m always open to constructive feedback on it. Let me know what you think. Work on Anju is ongoing with the plan to keep adding improvements to it over time, in particular with supporting more context menus for different modes.  ( 1 min )
    Dave Pearson: blogmore.el v2.1
    I've given blogmore.el a wee bump to v2.1. This release fixes a small problem I noticed today when I tried to use it to edit the tags for a post on my photoblog: the code to find and gather properties from posts didn't handle deeply-nested directory hierarchies for the post markdown files. I should have noticed this when I first wrote the code, but of course I was so busy testing against my primary blog, which only goes one sub-level deep, that I never noticed it wasn't going to work deeper. So rather than using grep to look for things like foo/**/*.md I swapped to a combination of find and grep. Which works, but is slightly (but noticeably) slower. Then I got to thinking that if I was doing this by hand, on the command line, I'd be using ripgrep anyway. Given this I might as well use it here. Of course, not everyone who might use blogmore.el will have rg installed so it makes sense to look for that and use it if it's available, otherwise fall back on find/grep. There's still some low-priority cleaning up I want to do around this; an obvious change I want to make being one where I want to collapse all cases of the same word (Tree vs tree, etc) into one "hit"1. For now though, as always, it's working well enough for my needs and this change fixed an obvious issue I ran into. BlogMore itself takes care of this, but it would be nice to have the prompt in blogmore.el also take this into account. ↩  ( 1 min )
    Irreal: Lisp Machines!
    history of the Lisp machines from their birth to their demise. They were hundreds—perhaps thousands—of times slower than today’s cheap laptop but they were built by and for hackers and everything was user customizable just as with Emacs. Even the microcode could be reprogrammed. Joe Marshall has a great post that describes his reprogramming the Lisp Machne microcode to break DES. This customizability was a huge benefit that every Emacs user will identify with. If the software didn’t support what you needed it to do, you could simply change it—even at the microcode level—to get the behavior you needed. Ketrainis’ video is 45 minutes, 21 seconds longs so you’ll definitely need to schedule some time but if you have any interest in Lisp Machines, it’s worth your while.  ( 5 min )
    Sacha Chua: 2026-03-30 Emacs news
    mistakes and misconceptions as part of the Emacs Carnival for March and not too early to think about the theme of "Newbies/Starter Kits" which Cena will be hosting for April. Who knows, maybe those ideas can become part of the newcomers presets. It could be fun to explore something like notes for Emacs beginners and see where you end up.

    Chris Maiorana: Let the commits tell the story

    Christian Tietze: Emacs Mistakes and Misconceptions That Held Me Back in 2019
    It took me a decade to try Emacs again, for reasons totally unrelated to computer programming (task management!), and a lot of effort by my pal Sascha Fast. In hindsight, I realize I had to learn a couple of things first. This is my contribution to Emacs Carnival March 2026: Mistakes and Misconceptions, hosted by Philip Kaluđerčić. Emacs is clumsy and old. I didn’t know that a GUI Emacs version existed, could display images and scroll somewhat smoothly, coming from an IT department with SUN terminals where we used Emacs on the command-line to edit some .c source files. By modern standards, it’s lean and snappy and can do interesting things using your OS’s window manager for multi-frame workflows (like displaying a ‘Speedbar’ for symbol navigation). In 2026, Emacs will learn to efficient…  ( 2 min )
    Emacs Redux: Creating Emacs Color Themes, Revisited
    Creating Emacs color themes is a topic I hadn’t thought much about in recent years. My first theme (Zenburn) has been in maintenance mode for ages, and Solarized mostly runs itself at this point. But working on my ports of Tokyo (Night) Themes and Catppuccin (Batppuccin) made me re-examine the whole topic with fresh eyes. The biggest shift I’ve noticed is that multi-variant themes (light/dark/high-contrast from a shared codebase) have become the norm rather than the exception, and that pattern naturally leads to reusable theming infrastructure. The task has always been simultaneously easy and hard. Easy because deftheme and custom-theme-set-faces are well-documented and do exactly what you’d expect. Hard because the real challenge was never the mechanics – it’s knowing which faces to theme…  ( 7 min )

    Dave Pearson: blogmore.el v2.0
    After kicking off blogmore.el, and then tinkering with it more and more, I've found it really quite helpful while writing posts. One thing I have noticed though -- given I use BlogMore for this blog and my photoblog -- is that I wanted to be able to use the package for working with more than one blog. So today I found myself with some time to kill and the result is that blogmore.el v2.0 has now been released. This version allows for setting up multiple blogs, each with their own settings for where posts live, how their paths are formatted, and so on. To handle this I've also added the blogmore-work-on command so that the active blog can be quickly changed. All of this can be configured using Emacs' customize feature. This has all changed since v1.x, where most of the customize options hav…  ( 2 min )
    Irreal: Paredit Keybinding Conflicts
    paredit but most of the rest of us have long since succumbed to its charms. It can be a bit difficult to get used to but once you do, it’s a tool you don’t want to live without. There is a problem though. Since Paredit’s introduction 20 years ago, Emacs has added new default keybindings some of which conflict with the existing Paredit keybindings. I can remember having to remap some of Paredit’s keybindings to avoid this. Bozhidar Batsov has a nice post that discusses these conflicts and how to deal with them. My use of Paredit is mostly restricted to a small subset of its commands so I haven’t experienced the full impact of these conflicts. Even for those commands I do use—like slurp and barf—the conflict doesn’t bother me because I never use the arrow keys to move the cursor. If you use more of the Paredit commands, take a look at Batsov’s post for his suggestions for resolving them. Or, you could switch to Fuco1’s smartparens, which avoids these conflicts while providing the same functionality and extending it to other file types. One thing for sure, if you use paredit-splice-sexp you’ll want to resolve its conflict because Emacs uses Meta+s as the search map prefix and that is too useful to forego. In any event if you’re a Paredit or Smartparens user, you should definitely take a look at Batsov’s post.  ( 5 min )
    Emacs Redux: Automatic Light/Dark Theme Switching
    Most theme families these days ship both light and dark variants. For example, Tokyo Themes has tokyo-day (light) alongside tokyo-night, tokyo-storm, and tokyo-moon (all dark). Batppuccin has batppuccin-latte (light) and batppuccin-mocha, batppuccin-macchiato, batppuccin-frappe (dark). But switching between them manually gets old fast. Here are a few ways to automate it. Following the OS Appearance (macOS + Emacs Plus) If you’re using Emacs Plus on macOS (which many Mac users do), you get the hook ns-system-appearance-change-functions. This is not part of core Emacs – it’s a patch that Emacs Plus applies on top of the NS build. The hook fires whenever macOS switches between light and dark mode, passing the symbol light or dark as an argument. All you need is: (defun my-apply-theme (appear…  ( 3 min )
    James Dyer: Simply Annotate 0.9.8: Threaded Conversations on Your Code
    I have been busy improving my annotation package! Simply Annotate, the latest release is 0.9.8 and I have put in a bunch of new features, so it felt like a good time to step back and show what the package actually does at this point, because honestly, quite a lot has changed since I last wrote about it. There are annotation packages out there already, annotate.el being the most established. And they are good! But I kept running into the same friction: I wanted threaded conversations directly on my code, I wanted multiple display styles I could combine, and I wanted the whole thing to be a single file with no dependencies that I could drop onto an air-gapped machine and just use (yup, that again!) So I built my own!, this is Emacs, after all. At its core, simply-annotate lets you attach…  ( 4 min )
    Bozhidar Batsov: Batppuccin: My Take on Catppuccin for Emacs
    I promised I’d take a break from building Tree-sitter major modes, and I meant it. So what better way to relax than to build… color themes? Yeah, I know. My idea of chilling is weird, but I genuinely enjoy working on random Emacs packages. Most of the time at least… Some Background For a very long time my go-to Emacs themes were Zenburn and Solarized – both of which I maintain popular Emacs ports for. Zenburn was actually one of my very first open source projects (created way back in 2010, when Emacs 24 was brand new). It served me well for years. But at some point I got bored. You know the feeling – you’ve been staring at the same color palette for so long that you stop seeing it. My experiments with other editors (Helix, Zed, VS Code) introduced me to Tokyo Night and Catppuccin, and they…  ( 5 min )

    Irreal: Restarting Running Elisp Code
    init.el, say, evaluate it, and continue executing their current Emacs instance. Sometimes, this is simply changing a parameter value but you can also change a function definition in the same way. If you’re new to Emacs you may wonder how this magical spell is invoked even though you’ve done it several times. It’s simply a matter of evaluating the new code and continuing. Except when it isn’t. There are some edge cases that can trip you up. In Lisp it’s devar values. Emacs adds defface and defcustom. The values defined by these commands are not changed by a code update. This is on purpose. The idea is that you don’t want to mess with a user’s, say, custom values when you change the code. Bozhidar Batsov has a nice post that discusses all this with particular attention on how to deal with devar and the other edge cases. For example, I always thought the the way to change devar variables was to evaluate a setq of the variable with the new value but you can also simple invoke eval-defun (Ctrl+Meta+x) to the devar to update the value. This also works for defcustom and defface. The other nice thing I didn’t know about is the restart-emacs command that restarts Emacs and—with desktop-save-mode​—reloads everything, including the new defvar etc. values. Take a look at Batsov’s post for more details.  ( 5 min )
