- parent5446 10y agoPraise the GNU overlords, the day has finally come!
- pzone 10y agoExciting! I hope this is the watershed moment I have imagined it to be.
- sriram_malhar 10y agoEmacs is now a proper operating system!
- yellowapple 10y agoIf only it had a decent editor!
- kahrkunne 10y agoWe have evil-mode now
- bad_login 10y agoYou should up your joke to 2016: Emacs is now a proper web browser.
- pawadu 10y agoCan anyone ELI5 this for a normal users?
- lokedhs 10y agoAs of that commit, Emacs now contains threading primitives. It doesn't change anything visibly for a normal user, but it should now be much easier to build extensions that don't hang the entire editor while performing certain long-running operations. One of the features a lot of people are hoping for is to have Gnus no longer block everything while fetching emails from the server. Of course, Gnus needs to be updated to support this.
