# Discussion
- sachac: I had fun writing some code to copy a line from ERC for easier copying to Etherpad, that was a nice new thing for EmacsConf 2024. Also the random package mentions on our countdown screen was fun too. This year I've had less time to work on Emacs-y things (about half the time compared to last year's leadup to EmacsConf), but it's nice to see we can still pull it off!
- transient discussion:\
- \<maxxcan\`\> do you like to much hydra? Leo?
- \<gg\> I love which-key.
- \<oylenshpeegul\> Yeah, I think adding which-key to Emacs 30 was
a great idea!
- \<srandby\> I wrote a transient to make it easy to access various
Emacs help resources, and I don't know Elisp very well.
- \<lounge-502\> Its amazing how in emacs people don't need to
frequently migrate to the newer packages all the time.
- \<inkpotmonkey\> at one point i experimented a bit with using
transcient as an interface to run shell commands that I was trying
to parse from the man pages, i still think this is an interesting
discoverability into all the options that shell commands offer
- \<lounge-502\> inkpotmonkey: ffmpeg comes to mind
- \<maxxcan\`\> I use transient for my job, and that save my life.
- \<plattfot\> I wrote a little package that combines transient and
tabulated list mode to fetch issues from services as jira.
Transient is a nice package to quickly get an UI going.
- \<zaeph\> eldoc-mode.\
- \<ElephantErgo\> I also kinda just had a thought for discussion. Browser related thoughts and speculation
- sachac: I've been using spookfox to control Firefox from Elisp,
which has been handy for some automation (can both send stuff to and
get stuff out of Firefox, I have some blog posts about it)

- \<ElephantErgo\> karthik: WOW! I am going to have to start using
this immediately! Thank you!
- \<ElephantErgo\> I've been really meaning to try out Meow as a
long-time Evil user 🙂
\<fristed\> I've been experimenting with using emacs as a GUI toolkit
for common lisp applications\
- \- \<robin\> fristed, ooo, does your experiment have a home/name?
i've been wondering about using emacs as an interface for clim apps
(partly as a step towards using clim in emacs, possibly), seems
possible considering that their was a web-based interface in the
1990s
- \<edrx\> fristed: have you shared links about this? "emacs as a GUI
toolkit for common lisp applications"
- \<edrx\> I would like to take a look
- \<robin\> edrx, did you see my guile talk? you might be
interested in the long-term future section :)
- \<fristed\> edrx: Currently I do not have any public items yet, but
now I know that there is interest i'll look into it
- \<fristed\> If i have something working next year i'll consider
having a emacsconf talk. It is inspired by CLOG, but using emacs
instead of the browser
- oooh, another possible topic for discussion: what's something you've recently started trying in Emacs?
- \- \<wasamasa\> I've been experimenting with using semgrep to
review elisp for security issues
- \<ElephantErgo\> It was really cool being able to jump in! 😊
- \<edrx\> hey hey, I've been experimenting with ways to make packages
very easy to try! link:

- \<edrx\> to the person who was lounge-928 a few minutes ago: I found
the slide in which I start to discuss choosing the right level of
detail! See here:

- \<cow_2001\> everyone should know of greader-mode. it is amazing. i
use it all the time\
