Notepad logging for (Vim and) GNU Emacs
« on: June 01, 2018, 11:38 AM »
Did you know that Windows Notepad can make a journal for you?

A couple of years ago, I wrote a Vim script to simulate this behavior.

Today, I ported it to GNU Emacs (will probably be released in the MELPA repositories soon).

Enjoy.
I bet when Cheetahs race and one of them cheats, the other one goes "Man, you're such a Cheetah!" and they laugh & eat a zebra or whatever.

Cool info!  I never knew that!  Still not enough to make me use it, but good to know!

I moved the Emacs repository over to my server:
https://code.rosaelefanten.org/logpad.el/home

I'll update MELPA, the logpad package is currently dead as I deleted the original.
