Along the Way: An Anecdote of Emacs's Malleability\nCase Duckworth\n\nEmac
s is well-known for being extremely flexible\, programmable\, and\nextensi
ble\; in fact\, that's probably the biggest reason it's still\nbeing used
after 40+ years of existence\, and even has enough clout to\ngenerate an e
ntire conference in its name. In this medium-length\npresentation\, I wil
l add another point to the data set proving Emacs's\nabilities\, by narrat
ing the latest package I made\, \\`frowny.el\\`\, from\nits conception to
its current\, nearly-completed state.\n\nI wrote frowny.el to scratch some
one else's itch as a joke on IRC\, but\nit has been called "pretty useful\
, for a joke package." I feel like\nthat encapsulates the spirit of Emacs
and that's why I want to present\non this topic.\n\nAlong the way\, I'll
discuss just a little of my own history of Emacs\,\nand why I feel it's a
great tool for non-technical users to sink their\nteeth into.\n\n## Speake

DESCRIPTION: Times are approximate and will probably change.\nhttps://emacs
conf.org/2021/talks/pattern\n# Emacs as Design Pattern Learning\nGreta Goe
tz\n\nThis presentation will first illustrate possible paths for beginners
and then mapping out the significance of the enhanced learning potential
of Emacs (Caillet in Andler & Guerry\, Markauskaite & Goodyear). The techn
ology-enhanced learning (TEL) that Emacs affords departs from the 'many\,
many features' (Stallman) which surpass the confines of a pre-fabricated e
nvironment (Stiegler). This affords diverse possibilities for individuals
to interact creatively and autonomously to satisfy their own needs alongsi
de others who share use of the tool (Illich). Its adaptability will be sho
wn to be an asset in support of the learning trends identified by the late
st pedagogical research (Guo).\n\n1. Setting out as beginners who may be
overwhelmed by formal Emacs documentation. Some inroads. No trace is too s
mall.\n2. Emacs as common ground between people and technology.\n3. Emac
s modularity and TEL design.\n4. Emacs as personal\, creative\, autonomou
s.\n5. Emacs and cognitive democracy.\n\n\n# References\n\n## General wor

X Philosophy Isn't Always The Only Answer\nDaniel Rose\n\nThe talk targets
users who are curious about computational philosophies\,\nor those who mi
ght not know how to best utilise Emacs conceptually. The\ntalk will cover
what the UNIX philosophy is\, the GNU Free Software\nprinciples\, a typica
l (Neo)Vi(m) user's approach\, and then how one might\naccomplish this in
Emacs combining the aformentioned ideals. The\nlisteners will learn how th
ey can approach Emacs ideologically\, and how\nblocking themselves into on
e philosophy or the other will limit their\nefficiency. Although you may b
e a veteran GNU/Linux and Emacs user\,\nunderstanding how to use both phil
osophies together will still allow you\nto be more performant than without
.\n\n\n\n# Outline\n\n- How can one limit their usage of CLI tools while
still maintaining\n the ideals of both.\n- How using CLI tools c
an still perfectly flow into Emacs.\n- How having all programs in Emacs
and unified keybindings is akin\n to a terminal user.\n- Why thin

DESCRIPTION: Times are approximate and will probably change.\nhttps://emacs
conf.org/2021/talks/omegat\n# Emacs manuals translation and OmegaT\nJean-C
hristophe Helary\n\nEven if it is generally agreed that software localizat
ion is a good thing\, Emacs is lacking in that respect for a number of tec
hnical reasons. Nonetheless\, the free software using public could greatly
benefit from Emacs manuals translations\, even if the interface were to r
emain in English.\n\nOmegaT is a multiplatform GPL3+ "computer aided trans
lation" (CAT) tool running on OpenJDK 8. CATs are roughly equivalent for t
ranslators to what IDEs are for code writers. Casual translators can benef
it from their features but professionals or committed amateurs are the mos
t likely to make the most use of such tools.\n\nWhen OmegaT\, free softwar
e based forges and Emacs meet\, we have a free multi-user translation envi
ronment that can easily sustain the (close to) 2 million words load that c
omprise the manuals distributed with Emacs\, along with powerful features
like arbitrary string protection for easy typing and QA (quality assurance
)\, automatic legacy translation handling\, glossary management\, history
based or predictive autocompletion\, etc.\n\nThe current trial project for
French is hosted on 2 different forges:\n\n1. sr.ht hosts the source file
s\n <https://sr.ht/~brandelune/documentation_emacs/>\n2. chapril hosts
the OmegaT team project architecture\n <https://forge.chapril.org/brand
elune/documentation_emacs>\n\nThe sources are regularly updated with a po4
a based shell script.\n\n# Outline\n\n- Duration: 10 minutes\n- Software u
sed during the presentation\n - [po4a](https://po4a.org) a tool to conver
t documentation formats to and from the commonly used `gettext` **PO** for
mat.\n po4a supports the `texinfo` format along with many others.\n -
[OmegaT](https://omegat.org) a "computer aided translation" tool used by t
ranslators to efficiently combine translation resources (legacy translatio
ns\, glossaries\, etc.) so as to produce more consistent translations.\n\n
During this short presentation\, I will address:\n\n- The specificities of
the Emacs manuals and the difficulties they present to the translator\n-
The reason why a professional tool is better than a collaborative web-base
d system\n- How to convert the texi and org files to a format that transla
tors can handle\n- How to adapt OmegaT to the Emacs manual specificities\n
- How to use OmegaT features such as arbitrary string protection\, legacy
translation handling\, glossaries\, autocompletion\, QA\, etc.\n- How to u
se OmegaT with a team of 2 (or more) translators working at the same time\
n\n\nI will *not* show:\n\n- How to create an OmegaT project\n- How to set
up an OmegaT team project\n- How to use OmegaT from the command line to w
ork in localization pipelines\n- How to use machine translation and MT "po
st-edit"\n- How to convert back the translated files to texi format\n- How
to install translated texi files for use in Emacs\n\nPeople who are inter
ested in knowing more about OmegaT are invited to check the [online user m

pencer King\n\nThere are a variety of methods for typesetting gregorian\nc
hant scores and outputting high-quality sheet music. One of these is\na to
ol called Gregorio\, which integrates with LaTeX allowing scores to\nbe cl
eanly inserted into other documents. All Gregorio files are plain\ntext\,
allowing them to easily be shared with other users and managed\nwith a ver
sion control system. In this talk\, I will give a brief\noverview of the G
regorio tool and then show how it can be used in\nEmacs by typesetting a s
imple score. All code and examples will be\nmade available to help new use
rs get started with typesetting their\nown scores.\n\n\n\n# Outline\n\n-

s Professional Development\nPhilip Beadling\n\nI recently had the pleasure
of being audited for my CPD record with one\nof the large engineering pro

PD items and my progress against them\ncompletely within Emacs. I also wa
nted the ability to export the data\nin a well presented\, compact format
for auditing submission.\n\nThe project was a success (I passed the audit)
and the resulting system\nintegrates really well into my wider daily Emac

be seen here:\n<https://raw.githubusercontent.com/falloutphil/Misc/master

Org mode is known for its flexibility\, power\, and staggeringly diverse\n
number of workflows\, users\, and use cases.\n\nThis talk explores just ho
w far we can push the boundaries of the sane\nand sensible with regard to
Org workflows.\n\nIn particular it will discuss shebang blocks\, and elvs:
two parts of a\ncomplete system for creating executable Org files.\n\nOrg
syntax does not support shebang lines. However\, it turns out that\nOrg s
yntax enables something even better —\; shebang blocks.\n\nOrg is al
so (supposedly) not an executable file format. However\, by\ncombining a
shebang block with a Org babel source block\, and eval\nlocal variables (e
lvs) Org becomes a multi-language executable format.\n\nIn this talk we in
troduce shebang blocks and elvs as a two part system\nthat transforms Org
files into executable documents that can run on any\nrecent version of Ema
cs.\n\nThese ideas are implemented in\n<https://github.com/tgbugs/orgstrap
/blob/master/README.org> and\n<https://github.com/tgbugs/orgstrap/blob/mas

can be installed\nvia M-x install-package orgstrap.\n\nThe talk will open
with a demo of how to create an executable Org file\nusing the orgstrap m
achinery.\n\nWe then discuss security considerations\, and show example us

\nportable shebang block for Org mode that works on a wide variety of\nsys

reference implementation for using Org source blocks to\ntransform Org fil

rg-mode is already an extremely powerful and\ncustomisable tool for task a
nd time management\, note-taking\, calendar\nand agenda management\, and m
uch more. Babel takes org a step further\nby letting you write\, evaluate\
, and export code in different languages\nfrom within a single file. In th
is talk\, I will highlight some\nfeatures of babel that I find exciting an
d extremely useful\,\nparticularly for an academic workflow.\n\nGetting st
arted with babel can be intimidating\, but it's hard to stop\nusing it onc
e you start. As an academic\, I typically don't manage\nlarge coding proje
cts. My primary purpose is writing lecture notes\,\nassignments\, and pape
rs\, and managing related admin. Typically\, I want\nto try and automate t
he boring portions of my workflow without extra\noverhead. I also tend to
find various tasks easier in some programming\nlanguages and harder in oth
ers\, and prefer to mix and match languages\nas the task dictates. Babel m
akes this process seamless.\n\nA basic use case is writing a document in o
rg-mode and exporting it to\nLaTeX or HTML. Org-mode even lets you write m
ultiple documents in a\nsingle org file\, which can be convenient. Babel l
ets you add all sorts\nof enhancements to the same file. For example\, sup
pose we have a\nsingle org document with all the problem sets for a course
. Within\nthis single file\, we could now:\n\n- draw pictures in ditaa\,
graphviz\, or python instead of LaTeX\,\n- use python to do complex cal
culations and then output the result as LaTeX\,\n- define skeletons to q
uickly draw up assignment templates\,\n- toggle exporting of assignments
with or without solutions based on tags\,\n- locally change export sett
ings or run a post-export hook\,\n- automatically export to LaTeX after
saving\,\n- tangle code blocks from some or all of the languages to exte
rnal files.\n\nI will try to showcase features of babel that academics cou
ld find\nhelpful\, by presenting some ways in which I have tried to use ba
bel. I\nwould also like to be inspired by other people's babel workflows!\
n\n\n\n# Outline\n\n- 5-10 minutes: (brief description/outline)\n\nFor a

e the code used to make\nthe images of molecules in the article in the sup
plemental materials.\nSome structural bioinformaticists have started to in
clude\ntheir computer code in the supplemental materials to allow readers\
nto reproduce their analyses. However\, authors of papers reporting new\nm
olecular structures often overlook the inclusion of the code that makes\nt
he images of the molecules reported in their articles. Nonetheless\,\nthis
aspect of reproducible research needs to become the standard practice\nto
improve the rigor of the science.\n\nIn a literate programming document\,
the author interleaves blocks\nof explanatory prose between code blocks t
hat make the images of molecules.\nThe document allows the reader to repro
duce the images in the manuscript by running the code.\nThe reader can als
o explore the effect of altering the parameters in the\ncode. Org files ar
e one alternative for making such literate programming\ndocuments.\n\nWe d
eveloped a **yasnippet** snippet library called **orgpymolpysnips** for\ns
tructural biologists (<https://github.com/MooersLab/orgpymolpysnips>).\nTh
is library facilitates the assembly of literate programming documents\nwit
h molecular images made by PyMOL. PyMOL is the most popular\nmolecular gra
phics program for creating images for publication\; it has\nover 100\,000
users\, which is a lot of users in molecular biology. PyMOL\nhas been used
to make many of the images of biological molecules found\non the covers o
f many Cell\, Nature\, and Science issues.\n\nWe used the **jupyter** lang
uage in **org-babel** to send commands from\ncode blocks in Org files to P
yMOL's Python API. PyMOL returns the\nmolecular image to the output block
below the code block. An Emacs\nuser can convert the Org file into a PDF\,
`tangle' the code blocks\ninto a script file\, and submit these for non-E

om\nProtesilaos Stavrou\n\nThe theme will be "how Emacs empowered my softw

nux operating\nsystem and mark those which eventually contributed towards
me becoming\nan Emacs user\, maintainer of a—\;dare I say—\;po
pular package\, and\ncontributor to upstream Emacs (among others). By all
uding to personal\nexperiences\, I will draw generalisable insights and co
nnect them to what\nI believe are irreducible qualities of Emacs qua softw
are and Emacs as a\ncommunity of like-minded people. The talk will be the
oretical in\nnature: there won't be any code-related demonstration nor tec
hnical\nreferences that only people with a background in computer science
would\nlikely recognise. Personal anecdotes shall be tangential to the po
int\nand considered as ancillary to the thesis of what Emacs represents fr
om\nthe standpoint of software freedom and user empowerment. The\npresent
ation is intended for a general audience that is interested in\nGNU softwa
re in general and Emacs in particular. My formal educational\nbackground
as a social scientist (i.e. not a programmer) and later as a\nphilosopher
informs my approach to this topic.\n\nThe presentation shall be 40 minutes
long. Its text will be in essay\nform and shall be supplied as complemen
tary material to the video. The\nnotation will be in Org mode. I cannot
provide an outline in advance\,\nas it will most likely not be consistent
with the actual presentation.\nIf\, however\, this is absolutely required
for administrative purposes I\nshall furnish one regardless with the provi

Python\, C\, and beyond!\nEthan Leba\n\nIn this talk\, I'll discuss a vis
ion for how writing code could be\, where the\nediting operations map dire
ctly to the primitives of the language itself -- and\nmy humble attempt of
implementing this vision. _tree-edit_ seeks to provides a\nstructural edi
ting plugin supporting conceivably any language with a tree-sitter\nparser
.\n\n**Structural editing does not have to be relegated to lisps or niche
DSLs.**\n\nI liken the state of code editing today to writing assembly. Th
e reason why\npeople like Python more than assembly is that for most purpo
ses\, the building\nblocks of the language are mismatched with our thought
process. We don't think\nin terms of registers and addresses\, we think i
n terms of variables\, functions\,\netc. So when we write and edit code\,
why do we edit in terms of deleting\,\ninserting\, replacing characters &#
x2013\; not wrapping\, inserting\, raising\,\ndeleting expressions and sta
tements?\n\nI'll also discuss the implementation of tree-edit\, which uses
a novel\ncombination of the fantastic\n[tree-sitter](https://github.com/e
macs-tree-sitter/elisp-tree-sitter) parser\nwith an embedded logic program
ming DSL ([miniKanren](http://minikanren.org/)\,\nusing elisp port [reazon

ane interface even with all it's quirks and\nfeatures because it requires
at least some technical skills to understand and\nuse properly\, and does
not have an easy way to connect with external tools that\nmost people are
forced to use for work.\n\nThis talk proposes some ideas about how the mod
el of Emacs\, it's focus on\nconsistency\, extensibility\, as well as it's
powerful interaction model can be\ncarried over to make modern interfaces
\, whether desktop or web applications\,\nthat would be designed with a go
al of reflecting the spirit of Emacs in terms of\nthe aforementioned featu
res it possesses\, and therefore enhance the capabilities\nof the Emacs\,
while at the same time utilizing it as a backend for\ntext-processing and
editing to a large extent. It would be really great to have\na personal we
b-interface for using modern task management tools\, chats\, emails\nand s
uch\, but from a UI defined by the user. The goal is to use it on a deskto
p\nor mobile\, locally or self-hosted on a server\, with support for touch
and\ngesture-based workflows\, while preserving the Emacs philosophy and
allowing to\nseamlessly switch between Emacs and its web extension\n\nThe
proposed solution is to integrate more of the modern tools with Emacs\,\nu
tilize Org-mode as a way to define application-specific parameters for the
se\ntools through Org properties\, and then utilize these parameters for m
aking a\nmodern local frontend that would enhance Emacs UI while allowing
to use external\ntools in a more personal and freedom respecting way (maki
ng the originals\nobsolete over time). The talk serves the purpose of invi
ting community members to\na discussion about how Emacs can become more mo
dern\, more approachable by people\nwho don't possess the neccessarry tech
nical skills to adjust it themselves\, but\nare keen to learn it\, and pot
entially how to attract more users to greater\nproductivity\, computer lit
eracy and the ideas of free software.\n\n\n\n# Outline\n\n- 5-10 minutes

o stop worrying and love emacs-devel\nStefan Kangas\n\nWe need a successfu
l Emacs on this planet. This means that we need an\nexcellent out-of-the-
box experience -- one that just works\, but that you\ncan still hack and c
ustomize. There is so much great experimentation\nand work going on out t
here in the wider Emacs community\, but we would\nbe even better off if mo
re of that could go into Emacs itself.\n\nEmacs' greatest strength is unfo
rtunately sometimes also its greatest\nweakness: it is *too* hackable.\n\n
On occasion\, people out there add stuff to their Init file to fix this\no
r that annoyance\, or even bug. The more ambitious might go on to\npackag
e up such fixes: "Hey\, 'foo-mode' doesn't have support for\n'bookmark-set
'\, let's write a package!" I am here to suggest that you\nshould not do
that.\n\nYou should submit a patch to Emacs! Maybe more people have that
same\nproblem or annoyance\, and would benefit from your solution?\n\nIt i
s sometimes perceived as hard to contribute to Emacs core. I want\nto enc
ourage more people to get involved\, and show that the barrier to\nentry i
s really not that high. If I can do it\, you can do it too!\n\nSo should
you really write that package\, or should you stop worrying and\nlearn to

ion I will show an idea that feels completely obvious\nonce we see it\, bu
t that only occured to me after after using Emacs\nand eev as my main inte
rface to the computer for more than 20 years.\nTake any interpreted langua
ge that supports multi-line comments\, and\nwhose interpreter can be run i
n an Emacs buffer - for example Lua\,\nHaskell\, Python\, or Julia\; let's
say just "Lua" from here on for\nsimplicity. So: suppose that we have a L
ua script that we wrote\, that\nis called "foo.lua" and that defines lots
of functions and defines the\nclasses Bar and Bletch. We can put after the
definition of the class\nBar a multi-line comment that contains an eepitc
h block that when\nexecuted starts a Lua interpreter\, loads the script fo
o.lua (by\nrunning 'dofile "foo.lua"')\, and then has several tests for th
at class\nand its methods\; and we can put another block with tests like t
hat\nafter the class Bletch\, and other blocks after some functions. Eepit
ch\nallows sending these tests line by line to the Lua interpreter by\ntyp
ing <f8\\> on each line that we want to send\, and this lets us create\nte
sts that are very easy to understand even without writing comments\;\nthis
gives us a very quick way to document code by executable tests\,\nthat is
super-great for experimental code that is still going to\nchange a lot be
fore running the risk of being read by other people.\n\nThese multi-line c
omments with eepitch blocks that run an interpreter\nand make it load the
current file are called "test blocks". The\ncommand \\`M-x eeit' inserts a
test block at point\, using the major mode\nto decide the right syntax to
use for the multi-line comments and for\nthe "dofile". We can configure t
he syntax of the test blocks for the\ncurrent major mode by running \\`M-x
find-eeit-links'\; this can also be\nused to add support for test blocks
to more languages (or\, more\nprecisely: to more major modes).\n\nEduardo

conf.org/2021/talks/bidi\n# Perso-Arabic Input Methods And BIDI Aware Apps
\nMohsen BANAN -- محسن بنان\n\nEmacs is a multilingual user environment.
A true multilingual editor must\nsupport bidirectionality and shaping of c
haracters. Perso-Arabic scripts require\nboth of these features.\n\nStarti
ng with Emacs 24\, full native bidi\n(bidirectional) support became availa
ble. For\nmany years prior to that Unicode support was\navailable and by
around year 2000\, reasonable\nopen-source shaping libraries were also ava
ilable.\n\nWith these in place at around 2012\, I developed\ntwo Persian i
nput methods for emacs. These input\nmethods or variations of them can als
o be used for\nArabic and other Perso-Arabic scripts.\n\nWith all of these
in place\, Emacs has now become\nthe ne plus ultra Libre-Halaal and Convi
vial usage\nenvironment for Perso-Arabic users.\n\nSince emacs comes loade
d with everything (Gnus\nfor email\, Bbdb for address books\, XeLaTeX mode
s\nfor typesetting\, org-mode for organization\, spell\ncheckers\, complet
ion systems\, calendar\, etc.)\, all basic\ncomputing and communication ne
eds of Perso-Arabic\nusers can be addressed in one place and\ncohesively.\
n\nIn this talk I will demonstrate what a wonderful\nenvironment that can
be.\n\nMy talk will be in two parts.\n\nIn Part 1\, I cover Persian input
methods. With an emphasis on "Banan\nMulti-Character (Reverse) Translitera
tion Persian Input Method". The\nsoftware is part of base emacs distributi

nIn Part 2\, I'll demonstrate that Emacs is far more than an editor. Emacs
can be\na complete Perso-Arabic usage environment. I will also cover the
