Emacs does not recognize my correct python path. I think it is a general problem with emacs not recognizing my environment variables. I have GNU Emacs 22.1.1 (i386-apple-darwin8.9.1, Carbon Version 1.6.0) of 2007-06-17 installed. I have set the PYTHONPATH in my ~/.bashrc. Maybe I should set it somewhere else? ...

I am hacking up a tagging application for emacs. I have got a tag cloud/weighted list successfully displaying on a buffer, but i am running into a snag. I need to be able to properly word-wrap the buffer, but I haven't a clue where to start. The font I am using is a variable width font. On top of that, each tag is going to be in a di...

I'm using emacs with C# Mode and when I turn on the speedbar, no files show up by default. I can choose "show all files" on the speedbar mode, but then every .cs file shows up with a '[?]' next to the name. How do I properly configure speedbar so it shows up with .cs files by default? How do I get the '[+]' next to each file so I ca...

After I open something with emacsclient, when I kill that buffer (C-x k) I get a confirmation dialog: Buffer `blah' still has clients; kill it? (yes or no) But when I kill buffers opened directly from Emacs I don't. Is there a way not to get them when emacsclient opened them? ...

There are all sorts of advantages to using Emacs, but for someone comfortable with the usual Win32 applications it comes with a wall-like learning curve. With most other editors it’s possible to just start using them and then learn about their other features and enhancements as you go along. How to just get on with using Emacs straight...
The Emacs cperl-mode seems to get confused less than perl-mode, but the Skittles effect makes the thing unusable for me. Does anyone have or know of an example of a .emacs block that causes cperl-mode to use the colorization from perl-mode, ideally in a form readable enough that I can go back and turn back on the default colors one elem...
As a follow-up to my question at http://stackoverflow.com/questions/269812/how-to-quickly-get-started-at-using-and-learning-emacs It's trying to find out how to do something like this which should be easy, that especially stops me from getting more used to using Emacs and instead starting up the editor I'm already familiar with. I use ...
I would like to to try emacs, and want to give it the best chance possible. To do this, it seems like having a good .emacs file is important. I primarily use Mac OS X (so I have looked at Aquamacs), and I mainly do Python programming, so anything specifically for that would be great. ...

frequently, I've dug into apropos and docs looking for something like the following only to give up to get back to the task at hand: (repeat-last-command) do the last C- or M- command I just executed (to be rebound to a fn key) or sometimes the related: (describe-last-function) what keystroke did I just mistakenly issue, the effect...
Can Emacs support the concept of projects? That would be where several configuration options varies depending on what project you are working on. ...
I'm looking for an alternative, since I find emacs difficult to use. I'd rather use an editor that supports all the usual shortcuts I'm used to, such as arrow keys to move the cursor around, CTRL+SHIFT+RightArrow to select the next word, etc. Basically, I don't want to have to relearn all my familiar shortcuts just so I can use emacs. ...
