+  departs from the 'many\, many features' (Stallman) which surpass the conf
+ ines of a pre-fabricated environment (Stiegler). This affords diverse poss
+ ibilities for individuals to interact creatively and autonomously to satis
+ fy their own needs alongside others who share use of the tool (Illich). It
+ s adaptability will be shown to be an asset in support of the learning tre
+ nds identified by the latest pedagogical research (Guo).\n\n1.  Setting ou

+ inroads. No trace is too small.\n2.  Emacs as common ground between people
+  and technology.\n3.  Emacs modularity and TEL design.\n4.  Emacs as perso

+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 commited amateurs are the most
+  likely to make the most use of such tools.\n\nWhen OmegaT\, free software
+  based forges and Emacs meet\, we have a free multi-user translation envir
+ onment that can easily sustain the (close to) 2 million words load that co
+ mprise the manuals distributed with Emacs\, along with powerful features l
+ ike arbitrary string protection for easy typing and QA (quality assurance)
+ \, automatic legacy translation handling\, glossary management\, history b
+ ased 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://sr.ht/~brandelune/docu
+ mentation_emacs/>\n\nThe sources are regularly updated with a po4a based s
+ hell script.\n\n# Outline\n\n- Duration: 10 minutes\n- Software used durin
+ g the presentation\n  - [po4a](https://po4a.org) a tool to convert documen
+ tation formats to and from the commonly used `gettext` **PO** format.\n   
+  po4a supports the `texinfo` format along with many others.\n  - [OmegaT](
+ https://omegat.org) a "computer aided translation" tool used by translator
+ s to efficiently combine translation ressources (legacy translations\, glo
+ ssaries\, etc.) so as to produce more consistent translations.\n\nDuring t
+ he presentation\, I will show:\n\n- How to use po4a to convert the texi fi
+ les to the PO format (the org.org file is also converted)\n- What are the 
+ specificities of the Emacs manuals and what difficulties they present to t
+ he tanslator\n- How to address those specificities in OmegaT\, with regula
+ r expressions\n- How to use OmegaT features such as arbitrary string prote
+ ction\, legacy translation handling\, glossaries\, autocompletion\, QA\, e
+ tc.\n- How to use OmegaT with a team of 2 (or more) translators working at
+  the same time\n- How to solve translation conflicts\n\nI will *not* show:
+ \n\n- How to create an OmegaT project\n- How to setup an OmegaT team proje
+ ct\n- How to use OmegaT from the command line to work in localization pipe

+ 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

+  with or without solutions based on tags\,\n-   locally change export sett

+ olecular structures often overlook the inclusion of the code that makes\nt

+  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

+  process. We don't think\nin terms of registers and addresses\, we think i

+ 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

+ '\, let's write a package!"  I am here to suggest that you\nshould not do

+ 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

+ \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

+ "popular" text editors come\nand go\, often due to the mercurial fashions 
+ of software development.  In\nthis talk\, we'll take a look at why popular
+  editors fade and the\nspecific aspects of Emacs that will ensure it remai
+ ns relevant\nregardless of mainstream popularity.\n\n\n\n# Outline\n\n- Di
+ scuss the core thesis\, the features that make Emacs\n  desirable for long
+ -term use (extensibility\, day-to-day 'life' features)\n\n- Include more b
+ ackground on the text editor landscape and\n  how the scope of various edi
+ tors is more narrow and doesn't compare to Emacs.\n\n- Talk about specific
+  instances where editors were popular\, fell out\n  of popularity\, and wh
+ y (due to changing fashions\, not usually\n  better features).
