Presentation
GNU Emacs (a.k.a. An editor of a Lifetime) is more than an editor, a powerful tool for all programmers. It is extensible, customizable, self-documenting real-time display editor. Beyond just being able to edit files, Emacs includes special features to help you write in many different human languages and programming/markup languages. It can functions as well as tools for compiling, running, and testing programs.
This presentation will demonstrate how to use Emacs in your day to day Drupal development projects.
- Emacs is a file manager
- Emacs can read news, mail, and RSS feeds
- Emacs can be use as a tool for playing game
- Emacs can be use to read PDF files, Play Videos, Browse url etc
- You can use HTML, CSS, PHP, Javascript, Python, LISP etc within Emacs
- Emacs can be use for ssh acess to your drupal site
You might see now why some people consider Emacs to be not merely a text editor but almost a complete operating system. Some users find that they can do almost all of their work from within Emacs.
