I found the Electrix plugin for Mozilla that allows you to define an external editor for editing HTML textareas. Basically, you just set editor in the Edit->Preferences->Electrix->Executable to invoke to /usr/bin/emacsclient (which is the default). Then just hit Ctrl-E in the textarea to load the text into emacs. Mozilla freezes while it’s waiting for the editor to finish. When you’re done editing the file, ‘C-x #’ prompts to save and quit editing the file. The text is then loaded into the Mozilla textarea for you to submit the form! A hearty “Thank You!” to Ben Peter.

I was chatting with jtl about EmacsAndBlosxom. As a long-time emacser that hasn’t futzed with Emacs:Elisp in a while he asked about how to bind save-buffer-same-timestamp to “C-x C-s” only for files that were for his blosxom blog. I thought this was a good idea, so I added the code to my TWiki EmacsAndBlosxom page.

For those of you that actually read my previous post on using emacs to manage passwords and followed the link to Emacs:AutoEncryption, you’ll remember that I had a few gripes about the way it worked. Most irritating was how the password file was always marked as modified. After being prompted enough times to save the password file (when I knew it hadn’t changed) while I was compiling, I finally fixed it. I’m very happy with this setup now.
