Basic Emacs configuration in Linux

It is really difficult to get started with Emacs. After the two days of use, we will summarize the following:

 

1: Install. Run the sudo apt-Get install Emacs command in Ubuntu. I am using Ubuntu 10.04 and use two sources that are said to be 163.

1.1: how to update the fast source, enter sudo gedit/etc/APT/sources. List in the terminal to add the two addresses, I tested the speed quite fast.

Deb http://ubuntu.cn99.com/ubuntu/ karmic main restricted universe multiverse

Deb-Src http://ubuntu.cn99.com/ubuntu/ karmic main restricted universe multiverse

Add the two addresses to the top and save the file.

 

Run sudo apt-Get update to update the file.

 

1.2: Then you can use sudo apt-Get install Emacs to install Emacs. After installation, enter Emacs in the terminal to open the editor.

 

1.3, later, the source of the E-Science and Technology Department was added quickly in his version!

 

 

2: simple configuration. All online changes. emacs file. After my exploration, I found that if the file installed above does not exist, please create it in the main folder (that is, location-> main folder. emacs file. For example, if my username is sunyanan, I will create an empty. emacs file under/home/sunyanan)

 

You may be talking about hidden files on the Internet. You can open this folder and choose View> show hidden files.

 

Enter some test configuration statements in it. There are a lot of online statements, just write them as needed. I posted an online tool on the following. It looks very good to remove the Emacs tool bar. Generally, tool bar wood is of little use. It uses command line. Copy the text and save the file. Then you can re-open Emacs to see the effect.

 

 

The above is purely original. If it is reproduced, please be noted below.

The following configuration file is found online:

;;;;Backup settings

; Emacs also has an automatic save function. The default value is ~ /. Emacs. d/auto-save-list. This is very useful. I have not changed it here. For details, see SAMs Teach Yourself Emacs in 24 hours (I am referred to as sams24)

; Enables version control, that is, you can back up multiple times

(Setq version-control T)

(Setq-default ispell-Program-name "Aspell ")

; This thing must be placed at the end

; Desktop. El is a State that can be saved when you disabled Emacs last time and restored to the last closed state at the next startup. Just like VMware's suspend.

; Because I want to use sawfish-mode, wiki-mode, HTML-helper-mode, and put it here to ensure that the mode required by the file can be correctly recognized at next startup.
