Run Emacs as a server. Then open with emacsclient. Instant and you have access to the same process you've been using with all the buffers, etc. emacs --daemon

emacs --daemon
emacsclient <fie>
- Jtsummers 5y agoemacs --daemon=<name> emacsclient -s <name> Useful for when you have different contexts and want to separate them more cleanly.
- FrenchyJiby 5y agoAbsolutely worth it, but it needs mentioned that bundled in Emacs is a sytemd job for launching the server at user login(!!!): systemctl --user enable emacs.service # For next login systemctl --user start emacs.service # launches it just this once This means I never have to even THINK "I should boot the editor", because it's already ready. Add a keyboard shortcut for emacsclient and you're golden
