Is there any way to have a sort of "counter" in emacs org-mode, preferably one with a target value? I'm basically looking to create a checkbox, but one that doesn't only have the possible values of 0 or 1. For example, let's say that I have a task that I need to do 10 times, for some reason. I'd like to keep track of how far along I am ...

I started using Emacs (ESS) as a default R editor (yes, @Dirk, as you've said, I want ESS), and I must admit it's by far the best R editor I've been using so far. However, I cannot manage to get an output of help() function up to web browser. It keeps displaying help page in a separate R buffer, even if options(help_type = "html", brows...

I'm writing a simple connect-4 program in Lisp and ideally each player (red, black) would have their own color when the game state is displayed. Does anyone know how to print colored ASCII characters? How is this done in general? I'm using emacs 23, so the solution might be specific to emacs itself. Anyways, I've checked the hyperspec t...
Hi, do you know what is the easiest way to move selected region or line (if there is no selection) up or down in emacs? I'm looking for the same functionality as is in eclipse (bounded to M-up, M-down). Thanks ...
I've just recently started to use emacs a bit, solely for org-mode. I'm a heavy vim user, so I installed vimpulse to attempt to keep my org-mode usage as close to vim as possible. However, I've been hitting some errors when I try to use some features. For example, if I press V for visual line mode, select some lines, and then push d, it...

I'm attempting my first modification of Emacs. I recorded a little keyboard macro and had Emacs spit it out as elisp, resulting in: (setq add-docstring "\C-rdef\C-n\C-a\C-m\C-p\C-i\C-u6\"\C-u3\C-b") (global-set-key "\C-c\C-d" 'add-docstring) Searching the Emacs reference, though, revealed that C-c C-d is already bound in diff mode...

You can find my simple Emacs configuration at the bottom. The problem is, when I type q[0] in main() and press . (dot), I see the 37 members of the ...
I accidentally managed to get colour names, #HEX, and a colour preview in Emacs. Don't have a bloody idea how, must've pressed some keybinding or menu item... But, now I can't seem to find where's that feature... I'm quite sure I wasn't hallucinating, so it's gotta be there, under some keystroke that I can't reproduce!!! =) ...

For example ; x is name, such as function/paragraph/line/etc. (defun my-x-function (interactive) (mark-x) (do-more-stuff) (modify-x)) is there a way to put it automatically to generate function, paragraph, etc. functions?

I really love org-mode in emacs and want to customize a few things. While reading thru org.el, I'm finding several references to filename but can't find filename using describe-function? I'm sure there's a simple answer, but I'm just learning elisp and it's not obvious. Any insight into where filename is defined? And/or if it's not a f...

Hi everyone, I use visual studio for day to day programming (read putting food in my mouth) but for personal programming (read c/c++ hacking) I use Emacs. Right now I am doing a programming exercise involving the X11 API. I am continually referring to the programming API manual to find the signature of function calls. What would be r...
