good. One advantage. But in meetings, taking notes, putting down action items and stuff like this, I use that all the time. This is stuff which I use.
What else? I don't browse the web inside Emacs. Even though that used to be possible as well. I don't know.
Sacha: W3M. I use that a lot before too.
Carsten: W3M or what is it called?
Sacha: There's a W3 which is all-Emacs Lisp, a web browser entirely in Emacs Lisp. And then there's W3M, which I think had an external library that's responsible and that it integrated with. Which is actually really cool to browse stuff with, because you'd strip out all the other junk.
Carsten: It's fast. Are you using it inside Emacs?
Sacha: I used to. I sometimes use that when I need to work with a keyword macro and lots of pages, if I don't need Javascript. Because the Javascript thing really screws stuff up. Many many websites now are highly dependent on Javascript. But I've done that. I've also done the offline mail thing before with Gnus and OfflineIMAP.
Carsten: So how did you do that? With Gnus and with OfflineIMAP?
Sacha: Yes. OfflineIMAP grabs all your mail. Then you use something like Postfix or Sendmail–one of those–to queue your mail. From Emacs' point of view, you're online, because it's checking an IMAP server, it's checking your mail there for your incoming mail, and it's sending mail out. It's just that your system holds on to all the mail until you're back online.
Carsten: Okay. Maybe I should give that another shot at some point.
Sacha: Yes.
Carsten: That's interesting.
Yes, you mentioned keyboard macros, of course, absolute power user tool. Yes, I use that all the time.
Sacha: Or a quick Emacs Lisp function to do some text manipulation. It's
