Emacs

I recently learned that, as of v0.4.7, Forge’s forge-copy-url-at-point-as-kill command works on files and regions (like git-link).

A few years ago I wrote microdata.el, an Emacs package for extracting and acting on microdata in email.

Update: Emacs 31 will ship with a similar feature to the one described below called minibuffer-nonselected-mode.

Up till now the only prose checker/linter I’ve used in Emacs is jinx.

Org-mode will, occasionally, pop up a window that takes over half the screen.

My Emacs config lives in a massive org-mode file and I often want to re-tangle from outside Emacs (because, e.g., I broke my Emacs session for some reason).

While there are many ways to pipe to emacs, they all involve either shuttling text by repeatedly calling emacsclient or writing to a temporary file.
