Emacs on the iPhone (2014) [video]
- drewolbrich 7y agoThanks for posting. I love this kind of deadpan parody video.
- dparen12 7y agoNote that with tbodt's excellent ish app (https://ish.app/ https://ish.app/), you can get a real emacs installation on the iPhone. I made a quick writeup on it (https://dp12.github.io/posts/tippinglikeits1989 https://dp12.github.io/posts/tippinglikeits1989).
- MaxLeiter 7y agoyou can get even more 'real' and run it natively if you compile it for yourself on a jailbroken device. I'm working on this for arm64 (newer devices) and someone accomplished it ~5 years ago: https://chriskohlhepp.wordpress.com/linux-on-iphone/emacs-ocaml-on-ipad/ https://chriskohlhepp.wordpress.com/linux-on-iphone/emacs-oc...
- saagarjha 7y ago> It segfaults on executables of any real size Is this just in iSH, or a bug in Radare in general?
- MaxLeiter 7y agoProbably an OOM (very limited shared memory available)
- TBurette 7y agoAround the same time I wrote a package for Emacs that would run a webserver within emacs so that you could interact with it remotely from a mobile browser: http://thomasburette.com/take-off/ http://thomasburette.com/take-off/ . Since every action you can perform in emacs is just a piece of elisp code you can easily send any command to emacs. The input method on mobile however is another story. Pretty useless in practice but it was interesting to delve into the emacs source from the elisp code down to the c text rendering part.
- melling 7y agoWonder if the chorded key input problem could eventually be solved with Google Soli gestures like those on the new Pixel phones: https://www.theverge.com/2019/10/15/20908083/google-pixel-4-project-soli-radar-motion-sense-explainer https://www.theverge.com/2019/10/15/20908083/google-pixel-4-...
