Please go on - what odd ideas came out wondering about this? I'm tinkering with emacs at the moment because I like the lisp-as-foundation idea. Thoughts I've had this morning: * Make emacs more useful as the driving-panel for a multimode monitor setup. Launch a generic client window, and then post data to it as you liked (web browser, text stream, graphical) * Structured document production system. I'm impressed to see that you can now get different size, colour, face fonts in a major mode. * Iceberg. I keep playing with a concept where you take the Bloomberg-style interface, and then implement this to drive your computer. I think Emacs would be a good starting point for this. Several big-investment ideas I've had turn out to already exist: * Make it nice to drive webkit from emacs. (maybe not nice yet - rough edges?) * visual debugging of java
