GNU Emacs is an extensible, customizable text editor—and more. At its core is an interpreter for Emacs Lisp, a dialect of the Lisp programming language with extensions to support text editing. The features of GNU Emacs include:

  • Content-sensitive editing modes, including syntax coloring, for a variety of file types including plain text, source code, and HTML.
  • Complete built-in documentation, including a tutorial for new users.
  • Full Unicode support for nearly all human languages and their scripts.
  • Highly customizable, using Emacs Lisp code or a graphical interface.
  • A large number of extensions that add other functionality, including a project planner, mail and news reader, debugger interface, calendar, and more. Many of these extensions are distributed with GNU Emacs; others are available separately.

Thanks for emacs! Really useful for editing specs and configs on Jolla Phone via SSH (not too usefull via fingerterm with VKB).

Thanks! Works in the terminal, but most practical when logged in on Jolla from outside.

Can you start it from terminal (emacs) ?

Meanwhile, Iam looking at this to do a small update. I believe the /usr/share/applications/emacs.desktop file might be wrong in this version ....

content of /usr/share/applications/emacs-desktop should be:

 

[Desktop Entry]
Name=Emacs
Exec=fingerterm -e "/usr/bin/emacs"
Icon=/usr/share/emacs/24.3/etc/images/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps/emacs.png
Type=Application
Terminal=true
