Greetings!
So I started using Emacs recently because I found for me that it's a lot more convenient to use if you have a custom build environment.
0- So when I'm watching the stream, Casey opens up the find-file in the mini-buffer to search and open a file in the current directory. I notice he has this nice auto-completion feature that gives you like a 'ghost' display of what the file you might be looking for is. When I hit 'tab' in the find-file buffer, I get abbreviation completion. So if I have a file called Win32Platform.cpp, I type 'Win' it would auto-complete to 'Window' since that happens to be a variable I have somewhere. If I keep hitting tab it says "Find file: scanning for dabbrevs... done". Can someone please tell me how to get proper file auto-completion like Casey has? I looked at his .emacs but couldn't find anything out of the ordinary
1- I'm using Emacs 24 and if I load Casey's .emacs Emacs just flat out crashes! Any idea what could be causing that to happen?
2- Running Casey's grep (M-x grep) with "findstr -s -n -i -l" yields no results found for pretty much anything I search for. Any idea what could be wrong?
3- Not related to Casey's .emacs, but does anyone know of any good functions/light-weight-plugins to use for some basic C refactoring? All I'm looking for is 'goto definition' and 'rename variable'
Thanks!
