For years it has been a vi vs. emacs debate but it appears there many more. Please reply with your favorite editor. I personally prefer vim.</p>AndyWed, 23 Jun 2010 14:54:09 -0400http://linuxexchange.org/questions/901/what-is-your-text-editor-of-choiceshellviemacshttp://linuxexchange.org/questions/863/how-to-make-mouse-wheel-scroll-one-line-at-a-time-in-emacs<p>My mouse wheel scrolls 3 lines at a time (in the Emacs screen) !</p> <p>I tried the following link, but it didn't succeed. <a href="http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/SmoothScrolling" rel="nofollow">http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/SmoothScrolling</a></p> <p>Kindly guide.</p>anishakaulWed, 16 Jun 2010 09:19:25 -0400http://linuxexchange.org/questions/863/how-to-make-mouse-wheel-scroll-one-line-at-a-time-in-emacsemacshttp://linuxexchange.org/questions/642/best-emacs-workspace-solution<p>I use emacs for working on various projects in different programming languages. While working on those projects, I modify the environment a lot. Most notably, I split the window in a specific way, load a lot of files and sometimes change the mode on those files.</p> <p>Everytime I start working on a project, I have to make those same changes. Furthermore, changing between the projects is a pain.</p> <p>While I know of desktop-mode, it doesn't solve problems like window splitting.</p> <p>What I would like to have is something like eclipse offers with its workspaces: On start of the program, it asks for a workspace and, if one is existant, restores the previous look and feel.</p> <p>How do you achieve something similar? If you use one of the many workspace/project-hooks, which hook do you prefer and why?</p>JazzTue, 18 May 2010 16:26:08 -0400http://linuxexchange.org/questions/642/best-emacs-workspace-solutionemacsworkspaceprojectcustomization
