It only shows which tags there are, some important daemons' - status (running or not) and whether or not I have mail. This makes - it difficult to tell time when I need it. That why it's useful to - see what time it is in Emacs, since that is on 99.99% of the time - I'm behind my computer, and it's very easy: - - #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp - (display-time-mode t) - #+END_SRC - - That is all. When you have that in your [[Emacs Init File]], you will - always have the time in your modeline. - -** Automatically compile startup files - - I know that for 99% of the things you might have in your having a - compiled init files won't make much of a difference, but still I - like having my init files compiled. This gets messy when you share - your init files across multiple PCs and the source files become - newer than the compiled ones. - - To fix this I've put only a very little bit of code in my actual - [[Emacs Init File]]: - - #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp - (require 'bytecomp) - - (defvar startup-files - (directory-files "~/.emacs.d/startup/" t "^[^.].*\\.el$") - "A list of the files that should be loaded during startup.") - - (while startup-files - (let ((filename (car startup-files)) - (byte-compile-warnings nil)) - (if (not (eq (byte-recompile-file filename nil 0) nil)) - (load (substring filename 0 -3)))) - (setq startup-files (cdr startup-files))) - #+END_SRC - - It gets all the files in the ~$HOME/.emacs.d/startup/~ directory - that end with ~.el~. It loops through all these files and compiles - them, and then loads them. I use ~byte-recompile-file~ instead of - ~byte-recompile-directory~ because the directory one didn't work - quite right. It doesn't recompile anything if the source file is - still up to date, so it only slows down when you have a lot of new - files in the ~startup~ directory. It also disables warnings so - that you're not bothered by them during startup. - -* Emacs as... - - There are *many* things Emacs[fn:emacs] is useful for, not just - coding and writing, but certainly very much for these uses as well. - -** ...
