Omar Antolín<p>There are a couple of features of <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/orgmode" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>orgmode</span></a> links in <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/Emacs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Emacs</span></a> that I think are underappreciated:</p><p>1. They work in all buffers, not just org-mode buffers! Bind org-open-at-point-global to a globally accessible key binding and enjoy org-links everywhere. For example, I like putting info links in comments in Emacs Lisp files, like info:calc#Graphics. Remember too, that file links can include a search string, for example file:~/.emacs.d/init.el::eshell takes me right to my eshell configuration. Shell links, that execute commands, are pretty useful too, for example &lt;shell:zip source *.c *.h&gt;.</p><p>2. It's super easy to create new link types (if you know how to program). For example, here's a new type of link for keyboard macros:</p><p> (org-link-set-parameters "kbd"<br> :follow (lambda (macro arg)<br> (kmacro-call-macro arg t nil (kbd macro))))</p><p> With that definition you can write keyboard macros like &lt;kbd:M-a M-f M-t&gt; and execute them with org-open-at-point-global.</p>

Billy<p>Any idea why xon/xoff flow control would suddenly become enabled? I am working on a remote Ubuntu host, and suddenly ctrl-s is borderline malicious. I use emacs, and I don't even think about ctrl-s before I do it, so the xon/xoff flow control is very disruptive. The machine uptime is 18 days, and this has happened in the last hour. I haven't messed with any network config. I guess a system administrator could have updated packages. Could that have enabled xon/xoff flow control?</p><p><a href="https://mountains.social/tags/linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>linux</span></a> <a href="https://mountains.social/tags/flowcontrol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>flowcontrol</span></a> <a href="https://mountains.social/tags/xon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>xon</span></a> <a href="https://mountains.social/tags/xoff" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>xoff</span></a> <a href="https://mountains.social/tags/emacs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>emacs</span></a> <a href="https://mountains.social/tags/uptime" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>uptime</span></a> <a href="https://mountains.social/tags/ssh" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ssh</span></a></p>

TheSecondVariation<p>Okay this must be a very general problem and I am sure there are clever solutions to it. I recently started to automatize a lot of my backup routines with <a href="https://graz.social/tags/elisp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>elisp</span></a> and <a href="https://graz.social/tags/emacs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>emacs</span></a>. What I am struggling with is that I constantly have to enter the password for every sudo command, so this is quite annoying. For the email I already use an authinfo file and somehow I should also be able to do that here too I just don't know how.</p>
