So I've been learning Emacs for a bit now and was just thinking about trying to figure out how to web browsing in emacs as a browser is the only other program I need right now. Gotta give this a try see how it works.
- ews 6y agoMake sure you also try Xwidget browsing, which has become my de factor browser while at work https://emacsnotes.wordpress.com/2018/08/18/why-a-minimal-browser-when-there-is-a-full-featured-one-introducingxwidget-webkit-a-state-of-the-art-browser-for-your-modern-emacs/ https://emacsnotes.wordpress.com/2018/08/18/why-a-minimal-br...
- psibi 6y agoIs there any way to get Xwidget based browser apart from trying to compiling Emacs (for a Linux environment) ? Also, if it's only available via the compile yourself route - how long does the compilation take in a 4-core Intel based system ?
- auganov 6y agoLess than 30 minutes. Pretty simple to follow too.
- konjin 6y agoIt works badly in most cases. Hacker News and Google are at the limit of what's usable. For a very lose definition of limit.
- mickeyp 6y agoIt works well for documentation and general reading, especially if you press `R` to engage readability mode, that attemps to strip out all but the main body of text.
