Emacs 26.1 Released With New Features
There's a new version of the 42-year-old libre text editor with over 2,000 built-in commands, reports LWN.net:Highlights include a built-in Lisp threading mechanism that provides some concurrency, double buffering when running under X, a redesigned flymake mode, 24-bit color support in text mode, and a systemd [user] unit file. The Free Software Foundation has released a 10,653-word description of all the new features in Emacs 26.1. Here's a couple more: The Emacs server now has socket-launching support. This allows socket based activation, where an external process like systemd can invoke the Emacs server process upon a socket connection event and hand the socket over to Emacs... This new functionality can be disabled with the configure option '--disable-libsystemd'.The new function 'call-shell-region' executes a command in an inferior shell with the buffer region as input.Intercepting hotkeys on Windows 7 and later now works better.The new user variable 'electric-quote-chars' provides a list of curved quotes for 'electric-quote-mode', allowing user to choose the types of quotes to be used.Read more of this story at Slashdot.
