Daniel Alejandro Tapia + +00:00:00.660 --> 00:00:03.839 +Stenotypy is a system of typing + +00:00:03.840 --> 00:00:07.339 +where you press multiple keys at the same time, + +00:00:07.340 --> 00:00:13.359 +letting you send more than one letter at a time. + +00:00:13.360 --> 00:00:16.939 +This is a video from the 1920s. + +00:00:16.940 --> 00:00:23.059 +The man is holding a stenotype, a device used for stenotypy. + +00:00:23.060 --> 00:00:26.359 +This particular one is called Grandjean. + +00:00:26.360 --> 00:00:30.067 +It's made for the French language. + +00:00:30.068 --> 00:00:31.739 +In this demonstration, + +00:00:31.740 --> 00:00:34.899 +the man is going to be dictating a passage, + +00:00:34.900 --> 00:00:38.759 +first, slowly and then quickly. + +00:00:38.760 --> 00:00:42.419 +The lady on the left doesn't have trouble keeping up. + +00:00:42.420 --> 00:00:44.859 +She's using stenotypy. + +00:00:44.860 --> 00:00:48.319 +The lady on the right is a good typist, + +00:00:48.320 --> 00:01:13.299 +but she can't keep up when the dictation gets faster. + +00:01:13.300 --> 00:01:16.019 +I'm nowhere near as fast as this lady. + +00:01:16.020 --> 00:01:18.779 +She's extremely skilled. + +00:01:18.780 --> 00:01:24.539 +I'm not even a tenth of what she is. + +00:01:24.540 --> 00:01:28.399 +I don't use Grandjean, I use Melani, + +00:01:28.400 --> 00:01:33.319 +which is a system for Castilian and Italian. + +00:01:33.320 --> 00:01:39.539 +If I want to make the word solo, I press S, O, L, + +00:01:39.540 --> 00:01:43.319 +which is made by two keys, and O. + +00:01:43.320 --> 00:01:45.599 +Here's what that looks like. + +00:01:45.600 --> 00:01:50.799 +The hyphen between S and O means that + +00:01:50.800 --> 00:01:52.519 +the S is on the left side, + +00:01:52.520 --> 00:01:57.039 +and the rest of the letters are on the right side. + +00:01:57.040 --> 00:01:59.999 +If I want to write the word sólo, + +00:02:00.000 --> 00:02:02.439 +which is just like the previous word, + +00:02:02.440 --> 00:02:05.479 +but with the first O accented, + +00:02:05.480 --> 00:02:08.259 +I would press the asterisk key. + +00:02:08.260 --> 00:02:11.959 +In Melani, the asterisk is used + +00:02:11.960 --> 00:02:20.299 +to put an accent on a letter. + +00:02:20.300 --> 00:02:22.039 +If you speak English, + +00:02:22.040 --> 00:02:25.039 +then you would likely use the Ireland system. + +00:02:25.040 --> 00:02:28.779 +S-E-T makes the word set. + +00:02:28.780 --> 00:02:32.379 +In Ireland, you can make a long vowel sound + +00:02:32.380 --> 00:02:34.259 +by pressing the two thumb keys + +00:02:34.260 --> 00:02:41.699 +on the other side of the vowel you want to make long. + +00:02:41.700 --> 00:02:44.120 +S-long-E-T makes the word seat. + +00:02:50.200 --> 00:02:52.659 +This is me programming. + +00:02:52.660 --> 00:02:56.480 +After a few lines, I'll explain what's going on. + +00:03:19.580 --> 00:03:23.379 +In GNU Emacs, you can create abbreviations + +00:03:23.380 --> 00:03:25.539 +that expand to strings. + +00:03:25.540 --> 00:03:31.359 +For example, you can create an abbrev, like btwx, + +00:03:31.360 --> 00:03:33.979 +that will expand to "by the way" + +00:03:33.980 --> 00:03:40.359 +when you succeed btwx with a space or some punctuation. + +00:03:40.360 --> 00:03:42.439 +Here that's what I'm doing. + +00:03:42.440 --> 00:03:48.139 +I type d and then emacs, which expands to this. + +00:03:48.140 --> 00:03:50.659 +But this is a different kind of expansion + +00:03:50.660 --> 00:03:54.339 +from a simple string like by the way. + +00:03:54.340 --> 00:03:56.639 +This one has structure. + +00:03:56.640 --> 00:04:00.679 +It has interesting points that I can jump to. + +00:04:00.680 --> 00:04:01.919 +It's called a skeleton. + +00:04:03.740 --> 00:04:05.939 +This is the skeleton. + +00:04:05.940 --> 00:04:10.559 +The part that I want you to focus on is the @ symbols. + +00:04:10.560 --> 00:04:15.739 +Those are the interesting points that I jump to. + +00:04:15.740 --> 00:04:18.259 +So, at one interesting point, + +00:04:18.260 --> 00:04:20.699 +I can write the name of the function, + +00:04:20.700 --> 00:04:24.359 +at another interesting point, the arguments + +00:04:24.360 --> 00:04:28.619 +if the function will need them, the doc string, + +00:04:28.620 --> 00:04:31.799 +and finally the body. + +00:04:31.800 --> 00:04:34.939 +When I get to the body, I use stenotypy + +00:04:34.940 --> 00:04:39.059 +to write the words of the functions I'm looking for. + +00:04:39.060 --> 00:04:41.639 +Then I call a completion framework + +00:04:41.640 --> 00:04:45.059 +to choose from a list of candidates. + +00:04:45.060 --> 00:04:47.859 +This completion framework doesn't care + +00:04:47.860 --> 00:04:52.519 +what order the words are in or how many words I use. + +00:04:52.520 --> 00:04:56.219 +This completion framework is called Corfu, + +00:04:56.220 --> 00:05:00.459 +which stands for COmpletion in Region FUnction. + +00:05:00.460 --> 00:05:03.279 +And I'm using a package called Orderless + +00:05:03.280 --> 00:05:04.439 +to make it stronger. + +00:05:51.460 --> 00:05:57.199 +Here, I use another skeleton, the same one as before. + +00:05:57.200 --> 00:06:00.879 +This time, it has an argument. + +00:06:00.880 --> 00:06:07.239 +Then, when I get to the body, I write another skeleton, + +00:06:07.240 --> 00:06:12.359 +one that has an interesting point between the quotes + +00:06:12.360 --> 00:06:14.919 +and creates a new line + +00:06:14.920 --> 00:06:17.499 +right underneath it. + +00:06:17.500 --> 00:06:20.319 +I typed i and then emacs, + +00:06:20.320 --> 00:06:22.359 +and I got the interactive skeleton. + +00:07:16.120 --> 00:07:18.899 +Now, I use another skeleton, + +00:07:18.900 --> 00:07:20.479 +but these ones differ + +00:07:20.480 --> 00:07:23.039 +because it prompts me for a string, + +00:07:23.040 --> 00:07:27.299 +and I can make the skeleton as long as I want. + +00:07:27.300 --> 00:07:29.799 +If I keep entering text in the prompt, + +00:07:29.800 --> 00:07:33.839 +then Emacs will keep making the skeleton bigger. + +00:07:33.840 --> 00:07:37.999 +When I enter an empty string, it knows to stop asking, + +00:07:38.000 --> 00:07:39.999 +and it sends me to the point + +00:07:40.000 --> 00:07:44.619 +I've designated to go to when a skeleton is created. + +00:07:44.620 --> 00:07:46.439 +That's what the underscore means. + +00:07:48.260 --> 00:07:54.119 +I type c and then Emacs, and I get the condition skeleton. + +00:07:54.120 --> 00:08:00.059 +And then I use Corfu and Orderless to program. + +00:08:00.060 --> 00:08:03.819 +On two functions, I use a dabbrev. + +00:08:03.820 --> 00:08:09.499 +A dabbrev is a dynamic abbreviation. + +00:08:09.500 --> 00:08:11.439 +Here's how it works. + +00:08:11.440 --> 00:08:12.899 +If I have three strings + +00:08:12.900 --> 00:08:17.819 +that begin with S-T, string, strawberry, and stop, + +00:08:17.820 --> 00:08:22.179 +I can write S-T and then call dabbrev expand. + +00:08:22.180 --> 00:08:24.379 +First, this will give me stop + +00:08:24.380 --> 00:08:27.119 +because I'm nearest to the word stop. + +00:08:27.120 --> 00:08:30.499 +Then when I call it again, I'll get strawberry. + +00:08:30.500 --> 00:08:35.459 +And if I call it a third time, I'll get string. + +00:08:35.460 --> 00:08:40.139 +If I start off with S-T-R, then I'll get strawberry first + +00:08:40.140 --> 00:08:42.279 +and then string. + +00:08:42.280 --> 00:08:45.999 +I used dabbrev twice in this function. + +00:08:46.000 --> 00:08:48.079 +If you read the top of the screen, + +00:08:48.080 --> 00:08:52.000 +you can see which commands I use and how I invoke them. + +00:09:00.240 --> 00:09:03.119 +Finally, I use one last skeleton + +00:09:03.120 --> 00:09:07.039 +to map the function I just wrote to a hotkey. + +00:09:07.040 --> 00:09:09.500 +In this case, C-o. + +00:09:15.580 --> 00:09:19.219 +Here we can see what the function I just wrote does. + +00:09:19.220 --> 00:09:22.239 +It opens a line with the line below indented + +00:09:22.240 --> 00:09:23.800 +if it isn't blank. + +00:09:23.801 --> 00:09:29.039 +I've kept the old behavior with an argument of zero + +00:09:29.040 --> 00:09:33.599 +and done something for when I use a negative argument. + +00:09:33.600 --> 00:09:36.899 +You can see the interesting points. + +00:09:36.900 --> 00:09:40.980 +I could jump to any of them or cycle through them. + +00:09:50.000 --> 00:09:54.619 +I normally use a 9-to-16 setup. + +00:09:54.620 --> 00:09:58.119 +To me, Emacs, and computing in general, + +00:09:58.120 --> 00:10:00.880 +is much more pleasant to use that way. + +00:10:07.680 --> 00:10:09.620 +When I stenotype a word, + +00:10:10.000 --> 00:10:14.179 +a space is sent immediately afterwards. + +00:10:14.180 --> 00:10:17.799 +Orderless treats spaces as delimiters. + +00:10:17.800 --> 00:10:19.379 +This is very helpful + +00:10:19.380 --> 00:10:23.459 +because I can enter commands with stenotypy, + +00:10:23.460 --> 00:10:25.219 +without having to worry about + +00:10:25.220 --> 00:10:27.060 +whether words are in the right order. + +00:10:29.320 --> 00:10:34.219 +Lem, spelled L-E-M, is another Emacs. + +00:10:34.220 --> 00:10:35.900 +It's extremely powerful. + +00:10:35.901 --> 00:10:40.060 +But Lem doesn't have skeletons, not yet at least. + +00:10:40.061 --> 00:10:40.359 +So I'm going to program the traditional way. + +00:10:43.740 --> 00:10:47.580 +Nothing fancy, just left-to-right programming. + +00:11:38.800 --> 00:11:41.520 +With Plover, you have dictionaries. + +00:11:41.521 --> 00:11:44.860 +I added Fibonacci to my dictionary. + +00:11:44.861 --> 00:11:47.939 +I made my own dictionary from scratch. + +00:11:47.940 --> 00:11:49.780 +But if you don't want to do that, + +00:11:49.781 --> 00:11:52.260 +there are free dictionaries available + +00:11:52.261 --> 00:11:55.120 +that have many words already in them, + +00:11:55.121 --> 00:11:56.720 +saving you lots of time. + +00:11:56.721 --> 00:12:00.279 +The reason I made my dictionary from scratch + +00:12:00.280 --> 00:12:03.559 +is because I wanted to know my system inside and out. + +00:12:03.560 --> 00:12:07.960 +On one stroke, I typed T. + +00:12:07.961 --> 00:12:12.740 +And, on the next stroke, I stenotyped coalton. + +00:12:12.741 --> 00:12:16.460 +And then I got (coalton-toplevel and a new line. + +00:12:16.461 --> 00:12:19.519 +It's similar to what I did in GNU Emacs + +00:12:19.520 --> 00:12:22.579 +when I expanded a skeleton. + +00:12:22.580 --> 00:12:25.179 +This is actually not stenotypy, + +00:12:25.180 --> 00:12:29.820 +but a different kind of steno, known as serial steno. + +00:12:29.821 --> 00:12:32.940 +Plover is capable of this as well. + +00:12:32.941 --> 00:12:36.840 +Here are some things that Plover can do. + +00:12:36.841 --> 00:12:38.920 +Plover can glue words, + +00:12:38.921 --> 00:12:41.460 +like if you need to make a compound word. + +00:12:41.461 --> 00:12:44.360 +It can break a compound word. + +00:12:44.361 --> 00:12:48.060 +You can press keys to turn off Plover + +00:12:48.061 --> 00:12:50.120 +or to turn it back on. + +00:12:50.121 --> 00:12:52.720 +You can case words the way you want, + +00:12:52.721 --> 00:12:55.760 +uppercase, lowercase, capitalize. + +00:12:55.761 --> 00:12:58.820 +You can change your stenotype layout, + +00:12:58.821 --> 00:13:02.380 +like, say, if you want to use Grandjean for French, + +00:13:02.381 --> 00:13:06.379 +Melani for Castilian, and Ireland for English. + +00:13:06.380 --> 00:13:08.020 +All of that's possible. + +00:13:10.480 --> 00:13:14.619 +Here I should note that I'm using a Plover plugin + +00:13:14.620 --> 00:13:17.520 +called Full Keyboard Steno. + +00:13:17.521 --> 00:13:22.180 +It makes my entire keyboard into a stenotype. + +00:13:26.800 --> 00:13:30.700 +Lem also has a completion feature built in. + +00:13:30.701 --> 00:13:35.100 +But I didn't need it for the code that I wrote. + +00:13:35.101 --> 00:13:37.900 +It's quite good. + +00:13:38.720 --> 00:13:42.280 +In summary, if you add in the symbols + +00:13:42.281 --> 00:13:45.120 +that you're going to need when you're programming, + +00:13:45.121 --> 00:13:46.440 +you'll be fine. + +00:13:46.441 --> 00:13:48.620 +Even without skeletons, + +00:13:48.621 --> 00:13:51.400 +Plover is nice to use for programming. + +00:14:00.920 --> 00:14:05.620 +The search tool is the primary way of navigating in Emacs. + +00:14:05.621 --> 00:14:08.040 +Every Emacser can be measured + +00:14:08.041 --> 00:14:11.639 +by their skill with the search tool. + +00:14:11.640 --> 00:14:14.820 +C-s begins a forward search. + +00:14:14.821 --> 00:14:17.880 +The s stands for search. + +00:14:18.420 --> 00:14:20.740 +I'm reading Aesop's Fables, + +00:14:20.741 --> 00:14:23.640 +and I want to look for the word fox. + +00:14:23.641 --> 00:14:28.200 +So I press C-s and type fox. + +00:14:28.201 --> 00:14:31.599 +If I want to go back to the beginning of the word fox, + +00:14:31.600 --> 00:14:37.500 +I press C-r, which stands for reverse search. + +00:14:37.501 --> 00:14:42.320 +With Stenotypy, spaces are added to the end of words, + +00:14:42.740 --> 00:14:45.520 +so sometimes that causes problems. + +00:14:49.060 --> 00:14:52.120 +We can remedy that by changing the way + +00:14:52.121 --> 00:14:54.880 +Emacs interprets our whitespace. + +00:14:55.360 --> 00:14:57.960 +When I press C-M-s [alt control s], + +00:14:57.961 --> 00:15:01.300 +whitespace is interpreted as a wildcard. + +00:15:01.301 --> 00:15:04.159 +It's a function I made myself. + +00:15:04.160 --> 00:15:09.159 +fox mask will take me to the fox and the mask. + +00:15:09.160 --> 00:15:12.180 +The whitespace is a wildcard. + +00:15:12.181 --> 00:15:16.760 +For me, Ctrl-s makes the whitespace literal. + +00:15:16.761 --> 00:15:20.539 +I like having both options available to me: + +00:15:20.540 --> 00:15:25.219 +literal whitespace and wildcard whitespace. + +00:15:29.420 --> 00:15:32.180 +Say I want to find the cat and the fox, + +00:15:32.620 --> 00:15:34.859 +one of my favorite fables. + +00:15:34.860 --> 00:15:39.419 +I write cat fox, but I don't get what I want. + +00:15:39.420 --> 00:15:42.119 +I've written a function that reverses + +00:15:42.120 --> 00:15:44.739 +the order of my search query. + +00:15:45.260 --> 00:15:47.179 +Now I get what I want. + +00:15:47.880 --> 00:15:50.939 +Searching like this is very convenient. + +00:15:55.340 --> 00:15:58.539 +In Lem, we can do something similar. + +00:15:58.540 --> 00:16:01.419 +I want to read The Fox and the Lion. + +00:16:01.420 --> 00:16:08.379 +I search for Lion Fox. Notice those words are capitalized. + +00:16:08.380 --> 00:16:11.780 +Now I'm going to transform the last two words + +00:16:11.781 --> 00:16:14.299 +into a regular expression + +00:16:14.300 --> 00:16:18.479 +so that the order doesn't matter. + +00:16:18.480 --> 00:16:21.859 +And now I can find the fable I'm looking for. + +00:16:27.220 --> 00:16:31.899 +I did this with a plugin called Retro Stringop, + +00:16:31.900 --> 00:16:34.259 +op meaning operation. + +00:16:34.260 --> 00:16:40.059 +I can perform any operation on the last n words. + +00:16:40.060 --> 00:16:42.319 +Let's look at that. + +00:16:42.320 --> 00:16:44.699 +The 2 means that I want to do something + +00:16:44.700 --> 00:16:46.939 +to the last two words. + +00:16:46.940 --> 00:16:50.899 +The operation I'm performing is Python code. + +00:16:50.900 --> 00:16:54.059 +To be honest, I don't know any Python, + +00:16:54.060 --> 00:16:57.619 +but string manipulation is easy to understand. + +00:16:57.620 --> 00:17:01.700 +If you do know Python, then you can make your own plugins + +00:17:01.701 --> 00:17:04.939 +and even help with the development of Plover. + +00:17:07.820 --> 00:17:09.899 +A feature I like in Lem is that + +00:17:09.900 --> 00:17:15.779 +when you gracefully exit search with Enter or C-m, + +00:17:15.780 --> 00:17:18.499 +what you searched for is highlighted. + +00:17:18.500 --> 00:17:23.240 +You can cycle through the results, the highlights, + +00:17:23.241 --> 00:17:26.619 +and you can toggle the highlights on or off. + +00:17:30.160 --> 00:17:34.480 +1978, John Kulp designs a keyboard + +00:17:34.481 --> 00:17:37.179 +known as the Space Cadet Keyboard. + +00:17:37.180 --> 00:17:40.339 +This keyboard has many distinctive qualities, + +00:17:40.340 --> 00:17:44.419 +one being the modifiers, numbering seven in total: + +00:17:44.420 --> 00:17:51.139 +Shift, Control, Meta, Super, Hyper, Greek, and Top. + +00:17:51.900 --> 00:17:56.019 +This keyboard influences the development of Emacs. + +00:17:56.860 --> 00:18:02.659 +2000, designer Kiyoshi Kimura and programmer Yoji Hagia + +00:18:02.660 --> 00:18:07.399 +release SandS, a program that lets you turn your spacebar + +00:18:07.400 --> 00:18:09.659 +into a dual-function key, + +00:18:09.660 --> 00:18:11.499 +sending space on tap + +00:18:11.500 --> 00:18:15.139 +and acting as the Shift modifier on hold. + +00:18:16.220 --> 00:18:18.500 +This idea, the dual-function key, + +00:18:18.501 --> 00:18:21.379 +later revolutionizes typing. + +00:18:22.060 --> 00:18:25.640 +These two concepts, the space cadet modifiers + +00:18:25.641 --> 00:18:29.579 +and the dual-function key, can be combined. + +00:18:29.580 --> 00:18:32.439 +I use a program called Kanata + +00:18:32.440 --> 00:18:36.659 +to put all the modifiers on my homerow. + +00:18:36.660 --> 00:18:40.099 +When I tap the letter a, I get an a. + +00:18:40.100 --> 00:18:43.419 +If I hold it down for longer than 200 milliseconds, + +00:18:43.420 --> 00:18:46.739 +it acts as the Meta modifier, + +00:18:46.740 --> 00:18:48.059 +and really I can add + +00:18:48.060 --> 00:18:52.399 +as many layers to my keyboard as I want. + +00:18:52.400 --> 00:18:55.499 +I don't use a little stenotype. + +00:18:55.500 --> 00:18:59.139 +Thanks to Full Keyboard Steno, the Plover plugin, + +00:18:59.140 --> 00:19:02.019 +I use my whole keyboard. + +00:19:02.020 --> 00:19:05.439 +I have an alternative keyboard layout on it, + +00:19:05.440 --> 00:19:08.699 +so, even when I'm typing in the traditional way, + +00:19:08.700 --> 00:19:10.379 +it feels amazing. + +00:19:10.380 --> 00:19:15.699 +My layout is called Kuron, and I lay it over Melani + +00:19:15.700 --> 00:19:19.619 +so that I have both available to me at all times. + +00:19:19.620 --> 00:19:24.399 +I don't get them confused because I set them off + +00:19:24.400 --> 00:19:26.939 +with the way I press keys. + +00:19:26.940 --> 00:19:29.319 +If I press one key at a time, + +00:19:29.320 --> 00:19:32.419 +I'm using Kuron, my keyboard layout. + +00:19:32.420 --> 00:19:35.399 +If I press multiple keys at the same time + +00:19:35.400 --> 00:19:37.339 +and let them go quickly, + +00:19:37.340 --> 00:19:41.419 +then I'm using stenotypy, in my case Melani. + +00:19:41.420 --> 00:19:45.240 +And if I hold one key longer than 200 milliseconds, + +00:19:45.241 --> 00:19:51.339 +then I'm activating it as a modifier key or a layer key. + +00:19:51.340 --> 00:19:56.799 +I always know what state I'm in by the way I press my keys. + +00:19:56.800 --> 00:19:59.619 +It's impossible for me to get confused. + +00:20:03.800 --> 00:20:07.859 +Holding multiple modifiers is not a problem + +00:20:07.860 --> 00:20:13.439 +because the keycaps used for stenotypy are flat and square. + +00:20:13.440 --> 00:20:15.979 +Pressing two or more keys at once + +00:20:15.980 --> 00:20:18.899 +with the same finger is easy. + +00:20:18.900 --> 00:20:21.899 +Notice how close they are to each other. + +00:20:21.900 --> 00:20:25.659 +In stenotypy, the homerow is the border + +00:20:25.660 --> 00:20:28.139 +between the two rows of keys. + +00:20:28.560 --> 00:20:31.259 +It took me a while to get used to it, + +00:20:31.260 --> 00:20:35.259 +but now that I am used to it, I quite like it. + +00:20:35.640 --> 00:20:38.219 +So if I have to press a hotkey + +00:20:38.220 --> 00:20:43.979 +with all six modifiers, Shift, Control, Meta, + +00:20:43.980 --> 00:20:50.899 +Alt, Hyper, Super, it's easy. + +00:20:50.900 --> 00:20:54.659 +Thanks to Kanata, I have a Greek layer on my board. + +00:20:54.660 --> 00:20:58.799 +Additionally, I have alpha, beta, and gamma layers + +00:20:58.800 --> 00:21:03.319 +that send sequences of keys that I can use as hotkeys + +00:21:03.320 --> 00:21:06.539 +in both GNU Emacs and Lem. + +00:21:06.540 --> 00:21:10.419 +Maybe you noticed a few while I was programming. + +00:21:10.420 --> 00:21:12.959 +Now it's possible to bring the Space Cadet + +00:21:12.960 --> 00:21:17.219 +to any keyboard and to build on its wonderful ideas. + +00:21:20.920 --> 00:21:24.459 +Here I'll note that another Emacser, Excalamus, + +00:21:24.460 --> 00:21:27.539 +has made a page called Plover with Emacs, + +00:21:27.540 --> 00:21:30.639 +with information on how to use Emacs + +00:21:30.640 --> 00:21:32.539 +with the standard stenotype, + +00:21:32.540 --> 00:21:34.519 +the one that has two rows, + +00:21:34.520 --> 00:21:37.439 +the one I call a little stenotype. + +00:21:37.440 --> 00:21:39.599 +While I use my full keyboard, + +00:21:39.600 --> 00:21:43.199 +I understand how a small board can be useful. + +00:21:43.200 --> 00:21:46.159 +Finger movement is greatly reduced, + +00:21:46.160 --> 00:21:49.439 +leading to a very ergonomic typing experience. + +00:21:49.440 --> 00:21:53.239 +In fact, all of the speed records + +00:21:53.240 --> 00:21:57.239 +are set with this stenotype, the standard stenotype. + +00:21:58.840 --> 00:22:01.479 +There are many great ideas on this page. + +00:22:01.480 --> 00:22:04.319 +Thank you, Excalamus. + +00:22:06.800 --> 00:22:09.159 +Special thanks to Richard Stallman, + +00:22:09.160 --> 00:22:13.119 +the creator of GNU Emacs and the Free Software Foundation, + +00:22:13.420 --> 00:22:16.919 +Sasaki Ryosuke, first name Ryosuke, + +00:22:16.920 --> 00:22:19.599 +the creator and lead developer of Lem, + +00:22:20.120 --> 00:22:24.279 +Mirabai Knight, the creator of the Open Steno Project, + +00:22:24.280 --> 00:22:26.839 +which oversees the development of Plover, + +00:22:26.840 --> 00:22:31.159 +and jtroo, the creator and lead developer of Kanata. + +00:22:32.700 --> 00:22:36.999 +The views expressed in this talk are solely my own. + +00:22:37.000 --> 00:22:41.159 +I have no connection to any of the parties mentioned herein + +00:22:41.160 --> 00:22:43.479 +and therefore cannot be seen + +00:22:43.480 --> 00:22:45.359 +as representing them in any capacity. + +00:22:45.360 --> 00:22:49.199 +What I've said cannot be taken as medical advice. + +00:22:50.860 --> 00:22:54.759 +I used the TranSide theme for GNU Emacs in this talk. + +00:22:54.760 --> 00:22:57.199 +It's beautiful and functional. + +00:22:57.900 --> 00:23:01.639 +I love how the code looks, and I can read the comments. + +00:23:03.560 --> 00:23:05.759 +In Lem, I used Gruber. + +00:23:05.760 --> 00:23:10.399 +Again, the comments are readable, and the code looks nice. + +00:23:11.200 --> 00:23:13.839 +When I first started using Emacs, + +00:23:13.840 --> 00:23:16.199 +I used the Wheatgrass theme. + +00:23:19.980 --> 00:23:23.879 +Another theme that I love is os1. + +00:23:24.520 --> 00:23:28.239 +It's a light, warm, modern theme for Emacs + +00:23:28.240 --> 00:23:30.439 +inspired by film palettes. + +00:23:35.040 --> 00:23:38.499 +Regarding typography, for programming, + +00:23:38.500 --> 00:23:42.879 +I used JuliaMono, which was designed by Cormullion. + +00:23:43.520 --> 00:23:46.919 +It's extensive, and it's beautiful. + +00:23:48.000 --> 00:23:51.039 +For graphics, I used PromptFont, + +00:23:51.380 --> 00:23:53.959 +which was made by Yukari Hafner. + +00:23:54.840 --> 00:23:56.479 +She's very talented. + +00:23:56.480 --> 00:23:59.639 +I really like her work, including this font. + +00:24:01.180 --> 00:24:04.679 +There are so many packages that I love in Emacs. + +00:24:05.520 --> 00:24:07.639 +If I talked about all of them, + +00:24:07.640 --> 00:24:09.799 +my talk would last for days, + +00:24:09.800 --> 00:24:11.959 +so I'm only going to mention three. + +00:24:12.580 --> 00:24:14.079 +Keycast. + +00:24:14.400 --> 00:24:15.519 +At the top of the screen, + +00:24:15.520 --> 00:24:18.039 +you can see the commands I'm executing + +00:24:18.040 --> 00:24:20.559 +and how I'm invoking those commands. + +00:24:20.560 --> 00:24:21.919 +That's Keycast. + +00:24:21.920 --> 00:24:24.879 +Rainbow Delimiters is another one I like. + +00:24:25.540 --> 00:24:27.519 +It lets me know visually + +00:24:27.520 --> 00:24:29.919 +when my parentheses are out of balance. + +00:24:30.480 --> 00:24:33.199 +Very helpful when I'm programming in Lisp. + +00:24:35.900 --> 00:24:37.879 +Moodline is another. + +00:24:37.880 --> 00:24:42.899 +The modeline is where I can see relevant information + +00:24:42.900 --> 00:24:44.879 +about the file I'm working on. + +00:24:46.840 --> 00:24:50.759 +Moodline only gives me the information I want. + +00:24:50.760 --> 00:24:55.460 +I'm not really worried about too many things, just + +00:24:55.461 --> 00:25:07.160 +the file name, the mode I'm in, and where I am in the file. |
