I have installed emacs23 on Linux Mint 8. I would like to hide the toolbar, and I can do it with Options > Show/Hide > Tool-bar. But the Tool-bar comes back next time I start emacs. How can I hide it persistently?
View 2 RepliesSMplayer plays every .mkv i have but i cant seem to hide the top gui bar when it goes full screen. smplayer seem to be the only player that i know plays any .mkv. while others i get a 264h errors and vlc can play most .mkv files but not all the ones i have.(tried Banshee,wine, totem) So i'm just looking for a quick fix Are there any other players that can play .mkv files (fullscreen with no annoying bars)or how do i hide the tool bar in smplayer when it goes fullscreen?

I don't really want to fix the 264h.errors it just.. bleh i've been surfing the web for a few hours trying to find a fix and it's been very time consuming.
I would like to log in to a remote machine via SSH, start a process running, and then log out, leaving the remote process running. This seems like an obvious thing to do, but I can't figure out how to do it! The problem is that any process that I start seems to be "attached" (sorry, I don't really know the correct terminology here) to my SSH login shell, and so when I log out the process is killed. Ctrl+Z bg doesn't seem to do it, either. Is there a way to do this? It seems that there must

I tried Google search and reading man page options for emacs but couldn't find... If I run emacs in GUI, it starts GUI for emacs. I want to run it in CLI in rxvt. How do I do it?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am currently interested in switching from vim to emacs.One of the more compelling reasons for this is the smooth integration with a unix environment. The most experienced emacs users I have seen have a bash prompt at the bottom of their window, with stdout going to a buffer right above it. They then interact with the output of programs such as grep in interesting ways.I am on Ubuntu 10.04 and the default emacs environment does not seem to do much for me in the way of integration. For example, in the M-x shell mode, output from basic commands like ls produce lots of strange characters and hitting the up arrow does not go to previous commands.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am doing some project work and for that using the server at college with ssh connection. Every time I try to open emacs on the terminal after connecting, it opens emacs in the terminal itself i.e. not its own window. On my laptop on which ubuntu is installed, emacs always opens up in its own window an thats how I am used to it. There are several problems when it opens in the terminal like when I try to use commands such as M-V, actually terminal's view menu opens up, its very frustrating. Also I am pretty sure that the college server runs on red hat and has X installed on it. So what do I need to do to get my emacs window back.

View 2 Replies View RelatedThe facilities offered by any text editor to look for a string are highly superior to those offered by search engines such as that of Google or the one used by LQ>Search. To only speak of the most one elementary that comes to my mind, you can reach 'john smith' by searching with the string 'hn smi' in any decente editor, but I know of no search engine that offers this feature.
On the other hand, I have always heard of the power of Vim and Emacs. For instance, they say there is no thing Emacs cannot do. Lets advocate to the job of adding Google searches the ability to find 'john smith' by using 'hn smi' as the matching pattern. Or to add regular expression capabilities. Could I use Vim/Emacs to solve this problem?
A little light into the meaning of my words: It would be Vim/Emacs the one in charge of making the Internet connection, connecting to Google and send appropriate commands go Google. Then, to look for my string, I would be directly using Vim/Emacs which, upon receiving my commands, would send the appropriate ones to Google and return control to me.
I want to copy 100 rows from the openoffice calc file to a txt file opened in emacs at console mode, and I can't do it correctly.
I've open an openoffice cal file, and I select all rows and do copy. I've a txt file opened in emacs console. When I do paste, it will only be pasted 25 rows, and not all.
I don't know what the problem is. I ssh on to a linux machine and
setenv DISPLAY mylocalhostname:0
emacs temp.temp
Emacs: Cannot connect to X server mylocalhostname:0.
Check the DISPLAY environment variable or use `-d'.
Also use the 'xhost' program to verify that it is set to permit connections from your machine.
If i type '{' and hit Enter emacs will automatically put '}'. How can i do this?

Uzbl uses hjkl for moving around, much like vim does. I was wondering if there was a browser (text based like links, or needing X like uzbl) which would be easy for someone used to emacs key bindings?Or if there is an emacs mode for having a buffer behave like a Links browser, but with emacs keybindings to move around...[For linux systems, please ideally something available through AUR or a debian package or both]

I'm using emacs 23.2.1 with quack on Linux and trying to set my default typeface to Inconsolata Medium 13. It is installed on my system (debian sid) and can be set manually per buffer in emacs. However, I would like it to be used throughout and by default. My suspicion is that quack's mode is somehow conflicting.
I've searched a good deal looking for information on font customization in emacs. Although there is documentation and examples out there, I've found them fairly incoherent when taken together and nothing specifically addressing this issue. Here is my .emacs
