Thanks. A screenshot would be helpful, too. :)

It does look nice!

can someone help or give me some YT videos to watch to have a good idea about emacs ?

I hesitate to be the curmudgeon here, but if you can't--or won't--bother to visit youtube.com and type "emacs" into the search box, then you probably won't enjoy using Emacs. Emacs is most appreciated by people who take a bit of initiative.

Yes, so how does Consult relate to not using Vertico anymore?

[-] github-alphapapa@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

I'm looking into dropping Vertico after I upgrade to 29. It's almost incredible that Minad's user focus and humility make that a potentially reasonable option, and I really appreciate the fantastically sound design of his completion ecosystem.

What do you mean? Vertico is a library that provides a UI for displaying completions; Consult is a library that provides commands to select items with completion. The two libraries complement each other.

Again, look at its history. Every comment sounds like it's written by GPT. And it keeps talking about email marketing out of context. And it's not participating in any communities, it's just spamming comments randomly to farm karma. And, look, 3.2k comment karma on an 8-day-old account. Does that really seem legit to you?

That account is a spambot. Please report it so it gets banned.

Shame on every user who downvoted the parent comment. Zero-effort questions like this are akin to panhandling, i.e. "To accost people in a public place and ask for [links to easily searched-for web pages]"--to refuse to help oneself and lazily demand to be spoon-fed by others.

As the guide says, "Community standards do not maintain themselves: They're maintained by people actively applying them, visibly, in public. ... There have been hacker forums where, out of some misguided sense of hyper-courtesy, participants are banned from posting any fault-finding with another's posts, and told “Don't say anything if you're unwilling to help the user.” The resulting departure of clueful participants to elsewhere causes them to descend into meaningless babble and become useless as technical forums."

loop also has other conveniences like upto, downto, by, collect, concat, with VAR = FOO then BAR, etc.

What problem are you trying to solve? If you want to link to a web site, why would you want to bury that link in an attachment and link to the attachment, instead of just linking directly to the site?

[-] github-alphapapa@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

A. Upgrade all the upgradable packages.

B. Downgrade to a known-good set of packages.

C. File a bug report (but only after trying A).

Those are your choices.
