There was just an article on Slashdot about FreeBSD abondoning gcc in favor
of clang. I hadn't encountered clang before, and have read up on it since.
The big difference between gcc and clang was that clang was written from
the very beginning to be reusable tool, around which various

By default, it is on.
I'm using org-mode extensively during the last year, and getting Hebrew
support helps with writing recepies and taking care of the home financies.
There are still bugs though, e.g. like the interaction between org-tables

I absolutely agree with Eli, that getting reasonable Bidi display when
editing source code in Emacs is feasible, for the very reason that emacs is
*syntax aware*. As long as the syntax is understood, it is possible to make
sure that the various syntax elements (keywords, strings, comments) are

After having suffered with terrible outllook web mail for sending email at
work for a long time, the system is finally able to accept SMTP
connections. So I set out looking for a mail agent that has the following
properties:
- Ability to send HTML mail.

Actually, it would be very nice with a emacs-based mail agent that used
implicit email direction for composition, but encoded the result in
explicit html (based on the resolved directions) when sending the result.
Perhaps it may be done through org-mode. How to deal with incoming html

The advantage of using Qt or Gtk compared with some of the other gui

I disagree. I am not familiar with C# so I can't comment on that, but Vala
very nicely reflects the beauty of the GObject system. Especia

I'm not sure how relevant it is to your question, but I'm using org-mode in
emacs for all my documentation needs. Computers are so fast these days, so
that there is almost impossible for a single person to generate more data
in e.g. a year than may be found quickly enough by brute force search. I.e
Hello,
I did the stupid mistake of accepting a USB modem ALE130 last week from
Bezeq, which of course I found out is not supported by Linux. I just
called them up and the only alternative they offer is the external
