It's interesting to see emacs features reinvented
this is a trival thing to achieve in emacs or org mode or babel in a number of ways.
Why is copy and paste hard to do though?
- OJFord 4y agoThis comment appears in any submission, doesn't it? Doesn't matter what it is, it's probably a trivial emacs feature. :') (It probably genuinely is in the infamous Dropbox thread somewhere - 'not only that but it's also built in to emacs'!)
- mLuby 4y agoWhich suggests the wrapper is the blocker. (I have no horse in the emacs vim holy war; this argument could apply to macOS just as easily.)
- beepbooptheory 4y agoSometimes maybe, I can see that here. But a lot of the times its people pushing their flashy developer product, where the reason to, lets say, overlook Emacs is even more obvious.
- pxc 4y ago> Doesn't matter what it is, it's probably a trivial emacs feature. :') Org mode is far from trivial! when a commenter posts about org mode on an article like this, consider it an invitation to explore something deep and wonderful rather than a claim that the problem being solved is trivial!
- OJFord 4y agoTo be clear, I was just paraphrasing OP - I'm not an emacs user (nothing against it, just never got into it.. and yes I do use vim, on Arch btw).
- joerdav 4y agoThe idea was that even if you don't have xc installed or know it exists, then you could benefit from the Markdown based documentation required for xc to work, and in those cases you could copy & paste.
