I've created a BitBar plugin for quick-access to Emacs, such as a new *scratch* buffer or a new "Compose Email" buffer. I thought these might be useful to others, hence this post. 1) Download and install BitBar: https://getbitbar.com/ 2) Add my Emacs plugin: https://github.com/mankoff/bitbar-plugins/blob/master/System/emacs.24h.sh 3) Customize to add new Emacs behaviors. Example use case: I'm not in Emacs, and am on a Desktop w/ no Emacs frame, and want to compose a new email. Prior to this setup, I needed to CMD+TAB to Emacs (or click on the icon in the Dock), then C-x 5 2 to bring up a new frame, and then some key combo to compose new email. Now: Mouse to taskbar, click 1x on Emacs unicorn emoji, and 1x on Email icon. Hope this is helpful to someone, -k. P.S. If you come up with other interesting uses, please post back here. P.P.S. Some obvious additions: 1) Alert if Emacs is front app and you are not clocked in. 2) Show clock status if you are clocked in 3) Show subset of Org Agenda in menu -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "mu-discuss" group.
