It's a bummer they only barely mention emacs. I'm not really an "emacs guy" (I use vim for all my actual editing) but it has all those tools you'll miss from the GUI desktop environment (PIM, doc writer, spreadsheets etc.) and they're all community maintained so they tend to be pretty sane. For example they mention the unix calendar command but they don't mention that the emacs calendar uses a superset of the syntax (and you can restrict yourself to the classical syntax if you want.)
- dansimonm 5y agoYes, you can do virtually everything mentioned in my blog with Emacs, especially since you can run almost any console command in it (also ncurses ones with M-x ansi-term). I deliberatley tried to avoid Emacs so as not to go to far of topic. I am toying with the idea of writing an Emacs Desktop Howto though ;)
