emacs 2025-06-17

When I switched to dvorak (for rsi reasons) it made M-x more awkward to type so I've had (global-set-key (kbd "C-z") 'execute-extended-command) in my emacs setup for a loooong time. I also have C-x C-c bound to a prefix - if I actually want to quit emacs (for some unknown reason) then I'll just run C-z kill-emacs ...

having C-z as prefix is a neat idea, but macbook keyboard is pretty crowded in the bottom left corner already

I use C-Γ₯ as prefix for my own stuff, because that is in all the finnish keyboards, but Γ₯ or is basically unused in the finnish language

GRRRRR - it happened to me again, although I've set: (global-unset-key (kbd "C-z"))

so annoying

I'll go with @tatut’s function

I accidentally hit C-z when trying to hit M-x sometimes. And apparently suspend-frame makes my emacs freeze with that annoying colored macos ball

Yeah, that’s one most unfortunate keybinding for us Clojure hackers. πŸ˜„

In the past I often minimized my Emacs when I actually wanted to switch to/back from the REPL in CIDER.

I recently got to enforce Rubocop at work, so here's another thank you!

I really learned to love modifier-keys-everywhere after setting up sunaku's Engrammer key-layout, where all the modifiers are right on my home-row, I think it makes emacs etc. so much friendlier to use on the joints

I have for years had this:

(defun tt-dont-suspend-emacs ()
  (interactive)
  (message "Not suspending emacs"))
(global-set-key (kbd "C-z") 'tt-dont-suspend-emacs)
(global-set-key (kbd "C-x C-z") 'tt-dont-suspend-emacs)
after having so many times accidentally done exactly this

In case you folks missed it. John Wiegley (in cooperation with Karthink) just released https://github.com/jwiegley/ob-gptel. So, if you already using gptel, this could be a nice addition. Also, don't quote me, but I've heard them experimenting on some Eshell extension that would let you pipe things in and out of gptel.
