blame

[Ben Metz]

I blame Luke Amdor (and his live-coding session) for the fact that I now have emacs/ensime running.  (I also blame Trent Johnson for his help).  Truth is I just feel slow in Intellij.

The one thing I don't like about emacs+ensime is that my fingers now
cannot type fast enough to get ahead of emacs. :)

[Luke Amdor]

I can take the blame. Hopefully in time, you'll come to love Emacs even more.

For more Emacs inspiration take a look @ emacs config up at https://github.com/rubbish/rubbish-emacs-setup . It's pretty customized to me, but here are somethings that I really use to an unhealthy amount in Emacs:

ido-mode

org-mode

subword-mode

wrap-region-mode

enclose-mode

magit

smex

full-ack

Binding the CapsLock key to Ctrl

The list kind of goes on and on.

Thx Luke.  I like the CapsLock binding idea.  Already struggling w/ the reach to Ctrl.
