This is actually why I prefer Emacs. I can literally do all my development work in Emacs, with a full-featured shell (e-shell), directory explorer (dir-ed), REPL and full IDE for Clojure (CIDER). It's pretty great.
- taeric 10y agoTRAMP really has changed the way I look at managing remote machines. Learning to set the remote path somewhat sanely has almost completely eliminated my usage of regular terminals. I do wish it was a little better on latency sometimes. But overall this environment is ridiculously nice.
- adamrt 10y agoShameless plug for https://github.com/adamrt/sane-term https://github.com/adamrt/sane-term I use it (and created it) so I could use ansi-term instead of e-shell. Then C-c C-j lets you treat the term like a normal buffer (move, yank, etc), and C-c C-k when you are done lets you switch back to normal term style buffer.
- elwell 10y ago> a full-featured shell (e-shell) My experience wasn't so simple. Griefs: coloring, git support problems, bash aliases. I'm sure there's a way to get it to work, but I wouldn't call it a full featured shell out-of-the-box; at least, it doesn't really compare with Terminal.
- sdegutis 10y agoFor git I use Magit, I don't have any bash aliases, and anything I would normally see coloring in when using bash in a real terminal has a full-fledged Emacs analog.
- wry_discontent 10y agoI've found that emacs mostly eliminates the need for a shell. Most of what I was doing can be handled by Magit, Dired, and Async shell commands. The only thing I really use the shell for these days in long running npm jobs.
