Notmuch tree from notmuch-hello or notmuch-jump ?
Anybody else use notmuch treeview here?
I have a bunch of saved searches, which I configure like this:
(push '(:name "Personal Unscreened"
:query "tag:inbox AND tag:unread AND (NOT query:screened-addresses)"
:key "u"
:search-type 'tree)
notmuch-saved-searches)
Regardless of whether I set :search-type to 'tree or "tree", when I select the search (either from notmuch-hello or notmuch-jump) it opens the search in search view (notmuch-search-mode), instead of tree view (notmuch-tree-mode).
When in search view, I can press 'Z' to get to the tree-view (notmuch-tree-from-search-current-query), but it's another step and creates another buffer, and I'm trying to get the search to start in tree view directly.
I'm new to notmuch, so I'm probably doing something wrong. Does anybody have any ideas? Or should I join the notmuch mailing list and ask there?

Wanted: three "connected" babel blocks for Org-mode demo
Hi,
I'm about to give a demo on how to maintain an engineering diary and a knowledge base. Of course, this will be an **Org-mode demo**. There won't be any public recording but I might publish the Org-mode source in a proper format on Github later-on.
For showing off, I'd like to add **three babel blocks** to demo the pseudo-literate programming part within a minute or so. I'm not that creative, so I'd love to see your ideas on that. Bonus: if the content is relevant to engineers/devops/admins.
My idea for this part: each block is using a different language (shell, python, ?). Each block generates some kind of data which is **human-readable** (e.g., as a nice table or at least some data the viewers are able to **understand quickly**). The next block takes the result from the previous and adds some processing. In the end, there is a nice graphics to display.
I'd go for: first block generates some data. Second does some processing. Third does some visualization that results in a PNG file I can directly view within the buffer.
I once did something like this with "du -h", filter the result likes and visualize using R. Simple, easy to explain. Unfortunately, I'm not happy with that any more. Partly because almost nobody of my colleagues is using R (including myself). See my non-working draft below.
I'd love to have this as simple as possible so that I'm able to explain and demo it really quick (I've got so much to cover and I don't want to explain everythin in detail, just teasers). Furthermore, it would be peachy when there isn't much dependency setup going on. I don't want NPM or whatever this Javascript thingy is. I do have shells (bash, zsh), Python and I may install something popular in addition to that if the story is well enough.
Do you have any proposals for me?
My non-working draft:
#+NAME: disk-usage
#+BEGIN_SRC bash
df -h
#+END_SRC
#+NAME: root-disk-usage
#+BEGIN_SRC perl :var my-disk-usage=disk-usage
use strict;
use warnings;
chomp($my-disk-usage);
if ($my-disk-usage) {
my @lines = split("\n", $output);
foreach my $line (@lines) {
if (index($line, '/') == 0) {
next;
} else {
print "$line\n";
}
}
}
#+END_SRC
#+BEGIN_SRC r :var my-root-disk-usage=root-disk-usage
library(ggplot2)
myoutput <- my-root-disk-usage
colnames(myoutput) <- c('mountpoint', 'used', 'avail', 'pct')

Path problems with org-preview-latex
I have a strange problem in org-mode, where org-preview-latex (including org-fragtog) only works when working in some directories - most annoyingly, it does not work in any subdirectory of the directory where most of my work projects are kept. I have no idea what causes this. It does not matter where the file I am working on is located, it is the current working directory when generating the previews. that matters.
I have org-preview-latex-image-directory set to a single folder in my .emacs.d, but when I am not working in one of the offending directories, the error message I get seems to be that dvipng is looking for dvi files in /tmp/, where they are not found. I have tried to look for relevant variables that might be accidentally set somewhere, but I couldn't find any (but I also don't know what I would look for).
Does anyone have any idea what is going on here? It is driving me absolutely nuts.
Value of my org-preview-latex-process-alist is:

How to disable the warning "File xxxx is large (yy Mb), really open" for some filetypes
Hi,
I have configured openwith on Windows emacs to open zip files with 7zip.
I do not care how large my zip archive is, 7zip is able to handle very big files.
Is there a possibility to disable this warning only for files from type 'zip'?
I have looked in the variables, but I have no idea how the variable may have been named.
Warning-smth... I guess...
thanks for your help!

Use `dir-locals-set-class-variables` with the root directory
Hello all,
I've run into a frustrating problem when trying to use `dir-locals-set-class-variables` to set key bindings specifically for a npm projects when changing projects. It works for all files and directories **apart** from the project-root one!
Is there any way to have this key binding / minor mode apply to the project root as well as all the subdirs and files?
(use-package npm
:config
(defvar npm-project-map (make-sparse-keymap)
"Keymap for npm projects.")
(define-minor-mode npm-project-mode
"A temporary minor mode to be activated only for npm projects."
:keymap npm-project-map)
(keymap-set npm-project-map "C-c p" 'npm)
(dir-locals-set-class-variables
'npm
'((nil . ((mode . npm-project)))))
(defun setup-npm-project+ (project-root)

Smart Keys work the same way on Code block and results headers.
Smart Keys on Org internal targets now work just as they do on
radio button targets.
- Support for Org 9.7 and up with newer features.
- Cycling among Org Todo states and sets of states with the Smart Keys.
- Hyperbole Doc/ files displayed in Org mode and cycle views of the
document with TAB at the start of the buffer.
# Installing and Using Hyperbole
To install within GNU Emacs, use:
{M-x package-install RET hyperbole RET}
Hyperbole installs in less than a minute and can be uninstalled even
faster if ever need be. Give it a try.
Then to invoke its minibuffer menu, use:
{C-h h} or {M-x hyperbole RET}
The best way to get a feel for many of its capabilities is to invoke the
all new, interactive FAST-DEMO and explore sections of interest:
{C-h h d d}
To permanently activate Hyperbole in your Emacs initialization file, add
the line:
(hyperbole-mode 1)
Hyperbole is a minor mode that may be disabled at any time with:
{C-u 0 hyperbole-mode RET}
See the Hyperbole home page with screenshots.
See Hyperbole use cases
or what users think about Hyperbole.
Enjoy,

# Use Cases
1. Create a card catalog
of published documents and reference them with simple text ids as
hyperlinks in any type of document.
2. Single Action Key press to follow URLs with section links, Markdown
links, Emacs outline heading links, Org mode links, Koutline links,
file and directory links and program identifier references.
See HTML Markdown and Emacs Outline Hash Links.
3. Jump from sections of a Table of Contents in DEMO, README and
TUTORIAL files as well as Internet RFCs to the section text.
Entries in a code library MANIFEST file work the same way. See
Table of Contents Browsing.
4. Display and edit local or remote files and directories simply by
pressing th Action Key on their names. Hyperbole will
automatically embed certain key variables in link pathnames so
that as these links are moved from site to site and the variable
values change at each site, the links are properly maintained.
See Path Suffixes and Variables
and Path Prefixes.
5. Automatically translate POSIX and MSWindows paths within buffers
or links to the right format for the current operating system,
eliminating the drudgery of converting backslashes to forward
slashes. See POSIX and MSWindows Paths.
6. Quickly search the web for targeted types of information such as
programming questions, code libraries, images, videos,
locations, word definitions, wikipedia entries or even tweets.
See Hyperbole Menus.
7. Embed social media hashtags and user names in any text files.
Then jump to the associated web page in your favorite web
browser with an Action Key press. See Social Media Hashtags
and Usernames.
8. Similarly, you can embed github and git object links in any
files with a simple syntax and Hyperbole will display the
associated objects with an Action Key press. See
Github (Remote) References.
and Git (Local) References.
9. Fast, multi-line, record-level full-text search across files of
contacts or other record-based files in Org, Markdown, Emacs
Outline or Koutline format. Then collapse all matches to a
single line each while still seeing name, phone number and email
information. See HyRolo.
10. Select regions of structured text or source code to copy or
move them between buffers with a single mouse drag or two key
presses. These selectable things include: delimited pairs of
(), @{@}, <>, and quote marks, source code functions, source
code comments and matching tag pairs in HTML and
Help with editing remote files over TRAMP targeting Windows hosts via ssh?
First: I've searched for solutions and experimented but without success. Hopefully you have some ideas!
The tl;dr is that I'm keen to find a way to edit files on remote Windows hosts using ssh as the protocol from a Linux host.
I'm a Linux user through-and-through but have to manage Windows boxen sometimes. Modern Windows can run sshd, though, and combined with powershell, managing remote Windows hosts is actually bearable. However, I'd prefer to edit files within my local emacs session rather than through a terminal running ssh. The challenge is finding the right C-x C-f path spec to connect to a remote ssh host that works when that target is running Windows (with all those caveats).
Some considerations:
- I know that I can connect to Windows hosts remotely via ssh correctly and passwordless. I can edit the login shell, I've tinkered with both cmd.exe and pwsh.exe without much success.
- I do have the ability to target sh.exe or bash.exe, although I haven't managed to make that work either (by changing TRAMP connection properties for the remote host)
- I assume there may be something I need to set to make the connection "aware" that the remote is Windows despite connecting over ssh, though I'm not sure what that setting might be (for example, changing a line ending setting)
I'd love any ideas or help with this.

Spotted Emacs in a comic - Emacs Cultural References in the Wild
I was reading the Hacker Files and I spotted this.
From Issue 1 of the Hacker Files
The Hacker Files was about a hacker called Jack Marshall who freelances for the Government and uncovers all sorts of underhandedness. This was created by Lewis Shiner and Tom Sutton, and it seems to have been created for an informed audience. I mean, in most popular entertainment, hacking involves hoodies, fantastical visualisations to make someone typing in the terminal more interesting and so on. This comic has none of that, and yet is quite gripping.

Coding assistant integration
Has anyone been able to configure Copilot-like services, in my case Codeium , in their completion framework so there is less friction when using them?
IMHO in a super-capf setup it can outshout other capfs because it returns longer results which take up posframe space. Similarly, i don't want to have to change buffers to choose a suggestion, so the older completion styles seem clumsy.
After some fiddling, my best guess is that it needs a separate completion mode which shows suggestions in an overlay within the current buffer. So in place, one at a time with some ability to move up and down through the undisplayed completions via M-n / M-p and with some kind of hint in the presentation about current position in the list.
How have other folks been setting these things up?

Emacs Beginner, Need Help - Vertico Recent candidate and Orderless seperator
I've been using Helm since the time I started using Emacs. A couple of weeks ago, Helm started giving me an error, and I searched for alternates and finally installed Vertico, Orderless, Consult and Embark.
Now Helm is working again, but I'd like to leave my present config as is.
What I need help with is:
1. In Helm when I M-x, I am shown the candidate from the last time I used M-x. In vertico, I have to search again, if I want the same candidate. Does anyone know how I can bring this Helm style behavior into Vertico?
2. I'm not sure if this is an orderless or vertico function. When I M-x and type in the command i'm looking for, in Helm, I don't need to enter the Hyphen. In this current setup, I need to enter a hyphen as a seperator, otherwise no matches are show. So for list-packages I need to type li-pa. li pa on its own won't work.
3. There is a horizontal bar running at the bottom of the screen, which I think shows the same candidates as in the completion list. Where is this coming from? Embark? WHat is it's purpose?
Attached image to indicate each of the points.
Thank you!

How do you guys track websites that you visited / blog posts?
Is there some sort of knowledge database for websites visited? Or just using org-roam / org for capturing ideas?
Also, do you save the original text in any form? I started using EWW and wondering if there are any user flows where you perform some annotations on the eww page, and then save it in your notes - similar to org-noter?

Package Dependency Issues with Elpaca
Hi everyone, I use the pass package in emacs to manage my passwords. This package has password-store and password-store-otp as dependencies. After recently updating the package, a newer version of password-store-otp is required (0.1.5) and elpaca seems to be pulling in (0.1.0). This error does occur in a fresh emacs install using emacs -q, installing elpaca, and installing pass with elpaca-try.
I've tried creating a use-package block for password-store-otp to update password-store-otp by setting a specific git commit. I've tried downloading and loading a local version of password-store-otp as well. Either way pass seems to always pull in the outdated version and use that.
Is there a way to make sure dependencies are updated with elpaca? Thanks for any help!

Eglot + Rust Analyzer dies instantly
Emacs 29.2 on Void Linux no packages installed new to emacs and just trying to use vanilla.
I installed rust the suggested way using the curl command on their site and went to try eglot and it couldn't find the rust-analyzer binary I check in my terminal and it seems rust doesn't include it.
I did some searching and found some Github issues suggesting downloading the binary and adding it to my PATH so I did.
Now eglot finds it and suggests it can use it when I do M-x elgot, I confirm but it dies instantly.
There's no error information in the error message it just says ` [eglot\] -1: Server died`
Any help would be appreciated, Thanks!
Edit: I found another post suggesting I install rust mode I used package-install and tested it that way and eglot still crashes. It works fine for other languages C,C++, Python. The issue is isolated to rust-analyzer.
Edit 2: Rust analyzer works find in VSCode, Neovim, and in my terminal I'm able to call the binary without it crashing.

Considering switching to emacs from neovim
Hi all,
I have been a neovim user for two years (I write my own configs using lua). I am considering switching to emacs after going through a major youtube rabbit hole on how emacs is a production environment, the beauty of org mode, evil mode key bindings, and it is still useable in the terminal when I ssh into a remote computer (do not have to install most of the time like neovim, especially when I do not have sudo permissions).
One of the things that really made me consider switching to emacs is that for neovim, some of my plugins will break due to updates or be no longer maintained. Additionally I have no idea where the direction of neovim is going. I want something that I can customize, but also relatively stable and low maintenance. Does emacs offer this advantage?
Thanks!

ANNOUNCE: GNU Hyperbole package major release 9 (V9.0.1) released
# Overview
Hyperbole is a single package that can significantly raise your Emacs
productivity with its broad information authoring and management
capabilities, including giving you easier access to existing Emacs
features that are hard to find or set up correctly. Give it a try
for one month and see what you think.
After an extensive year-and-a-half of development and quality-assurance,
GNU Hyperbole 9.0.1, the Rhapsody release, is now available on GNU
ELPA. And oh what a release it is: extensive new features, new video
demos, org and org roam integration, Markdown and Org file support in
HyRolo, recursive directory and wildcard file scanning in HyRolo, and
much more.
Hyperbole is like Markdown for hypertext. Hyperbole automatically
recognizes dozens of common patterns in any buffer regardless of mode
and transparently turns them into hyperbuttons you can instantly
activate with a single key. Email addresses, URLs, grep -n outputs,
programming backtraces, sequences of Emacs keys, programming
identifiers, Texinfo and Info cross-references, Org links, Markdown
links and on and on. All you do is load Hyperbole and then your text
comes to life with no extra effort or complex formatting.
But Hyperbole is also a personal information manager with built-in
capabilities of contact management/hierarchical record lookup,
legal-numbered outlines with hyperlinkable views and a unique window
and frame manager. It is even Org-compatible so you can use all of
Org's capabilities together with Hyperbole.
Hyperbole stays out of your way but is always a key press away when
you need it. Like Emacs, Org, Counsel and Helm, Hyperbole has many
different uses, all based around the theme of reducing cognitive load
and improving your everyday information management. It reduces
cognitive load by using a single Action Key, {M-RET}, across many
different contexts to perform the best default action in each.
Hyperbole has always been one of the best documented Emacs packages.
With Version 9 comes excellent test coverage: over 400 automated tests
are run with every update against every major version of Emacs since
version 27, to ensure quality. We hope you'll give it a try.

org-id-locations file as a large-scale database unique-id store?
I've been using a package called org-brain that is using, I'm all but certain, the .org-id-locations file as its database to store graph-like relationships between org files and org headings. org-brain is a sort of graph database which adds a PROPERTIES drawer with just the ID field with a UUID to an org file, as well as to the org headings in each file. So I opened this 127k file residing in my .emacs.d directory and apparently whatever is in my org directory and has a PROPERTIES drawer with ID field winds up in .org-id-locations represented as lists in one big list, one list for each file that has one or more drawers. But you knowledgeable people here know all this already. However, it surprised me since such a format as this
(...("~/Dropbox/org/orgbfassungen/FassungenDesc.org" "1ba78dfc-d6c3-46c5-827d-37db94fa9053" "6809202d-9a4c-4ed0-87fb-798676f448fe" "f2149157-6ba1-4e24-81c3-4e070fcc5de8" "5b7c2d9a-2df8-450a-a0c8-9d3b8e703044" "f3031b9f-3708-493d-9546-f489835c9f17") ("~/Dropbox/org/orgbfassungen/Fassungen.org" "e9b683af-90b1-4ece-9afd-18dc28a9fab2")...)
where, e.g., inside the file FassungenDesc.org there are many org headings, each with a PROPERTIES/ID drawer -- and they're all associated to FassungenDesc.org with that simple list. So I'm asking if this is a good design for a really big graph database? I'd like to start using org files and their containing headings as vertices. But I'm guessing this is not really all that scalable, not really intended for such a big thing. So again, is this org-brain approach not good for anything big? I plan on having potentially thousands of org files with very many heading entries each (over a thousand perhaps per file) representing vertices. What would be a better way of databasing org files and headings? The PROPERTIES/ID drawer idea is fine for a unique key, but not throwing it all in .org-id-locations, right? But then when I look up the variable org-id-locations I see "Its value is #<hash-table equal 2515/3158 0x1558ae1dbff7>". Is this telling me that yes, this is a hash-controlled thing and might be okay after all for big things? I saw another emacs graph database (https://github.com/toshism/netz) that uses h.el hash to store graph vertices and edges.
Ancillary: If I move or delete .org-id-locations, Emacs will rebuild it, right? What is the idea behind having such a file structured this way -- other than a simple database? What else uses it?

Autocomplete with company and eglot (ruff-lsp)
I'm having trouble getting company to do any sort of autocompletion in my setup. I'm using the ruff-lsp language service provider and eglot. Here is my setup:
(use-package pyvenv
:ensure t
:config
(pyvenv-mode 1)
(pyvenv-activate "~/miniconda3/envs/dl/"))
(setq major-mode-remap-alist
'((python-mode . python-ts-mode)))
(add-hook 'after-init-hook 'global-company-mode)
(use-package company
:ensure t
:config
:hook (python-ts-mode . company-mode)
(setq company-idle-delay 0.01
company-minimum-prefix-length 1))
(use-package eglot
:ensure t
:defer t
:hook (python-ts-mode . eglot-ensure))
(with-eval-after-load 'eglot
(add-to-list 'eglot-server-programs
'(python-ts-mode . ("ruff-lsp"))))
The linting through ruff-lsp seems to be working well, but when I have a partial bit of code and run "company-complete" nothing is happening. Can someone please help me resolve this?

Can’t find org-roam?
I’m trying to install org-roam and the package-install list only shows me org-roam-ql, org-roam-bibtex and org-roam-ui and (I’m guessing) it’s missing the ‘main’ org-roam package? I did package-refresh-content as well.
What am I doing wrong? I’m following the instructions here
