Been a long time since I used emacs (had to stop, it was hurting my pinky) but I did use M-x shell a lot, I always thought it ran bash but from this description I understand emacs has its own shell?!
- excircul 3y agoM-x shell does run bash (or whatever is your user’s shell) M-x eshell is a shell implemented completely in Emacs Lisp and integrates with Emacs really nicely
- dinom 3y agoDid you try swapping or replacing capslock w/ ctrl? Something like this... setxkbmap -option ctrl:nocaps xmodmap -e "keycode 107 = Control_R" I would occasionally experience some pinky pain until I did this. Losing capslock is mostly inconsequential (you can always use upcase-region).
- kagevf 3y agoThis is a useful guide to the different shells in emacs: https://www.masteringemacs.org/article/running-shells-in-emacs-overview https://www.masteringemacs.org/article/running-shells-in-ema... (the whole site has lots of information about emacs)
