Hey Milan @mk73,
I would absolutely love to share my experiences with the UBports users and give something back! Although will honestly admit that I consider myself more a "curator of assembled knowledge" (akin to standing on the shoulders of giants!) than an original fount of that knowledge. The internet and all its wonderful contributors have been my inspiration - but I do also realise the importance and use of actually having all of these titbits and tweaks in a single place.
So, yep, consider me sold on writing an "emacs on UT" blog. It'll probably be quite useful for me to write some of this stuff down too
-
@brywilson I use emacs to write my email, but I log into my server and read my email with mutt there, not right in the phone. I would also love to hear how you use emacs in the phone.
-
@brywilson this could be amazing for sure. very excited to read what you have to share with the community

I love the touch navigation in the UT Terminal and it's consistently the major reason I'm using UT
I hear you
I find it difficult to suggest improvements without sounding like I'm complaining - because in my opinion, there is no mobile device terminal that comes close to this...
fair enough, but then maybe just as feedback to myself: Are you not struggling with the things I pointed out? Because then maybe I just need to find how I adjust my own usage pattern. Or are you simple being (too ) humble here? No stray tabs in your .tex files?

Looking forward to it.
And to the promo clip that marketing is undoubtedly going to make out of it whistle

Is there a way to get a more recent version of Emacs than 24.5 on UT? (Also, does xmodmap work for rebinding capslock on an external bluetooth keyboard?)
-
@emacsomancer That is the version available in Ubuntu 16.04. You could add a PPA or such which has a newer version for 16.04 on armhf, if you wish, but eh only official archive version would be 24.5.

Right, no, I get that. What I actually wanted to ask is: (a) is there a PPA which has a newer version of Emacs for 16.04?[1] (b) If so, how do I add PPAs in Libertine?
[1] There's this PPA: https://launchpad.net/~kelleyk/+archive/ubuntu/emacs , but it's not clear to me whether it has support for arm.

there's options for this:
libertine-container-manager configure --help
-
@emacsomancer Looking at that page, it does have ARM builds, so if you trust that PPA, you could use it.
