evil-mode in terminal without Alt/Meta
This morning I found the following post on reddit /r/emacs: Evil mode on a vt100 and I recalled having the same issue with terminal Emacs in xterm. By default, xterm emulates VT102, and behaving like VT100, will not send Alt/Meta key to Emacs without this workaround.
In short, the workaround to send M-x
in evil-mode even if Alt/Meta doesn't
work is to use this combo: \ Esc-x
. \
will temporarily suspend evil-mode and
Esc-x
is the same as M-x
. The same will work with C-u M-x
: type \ C-u Esc-x
.
I wasn't satisfied with this, we are using Emacs, after all ;) How
about we can call M-x
directly as evil-mode ex command? Sure,

Fixing docker-compose stalled containers
This is the first post after almost two years. Yay! I've been busy with various projects and gigs, and I'm hoping I'll have a chance to write about them in future. But for now, let's focus on my issue with docker-compose.
First of all, let's check my setup:

So, how are they used in Scheme? Here is one example you can test in Racket or Guile:
(define lst '(1 2 3 4 5))
(let loop ((lst lst))
(when (not (null? lst))
(display (car lst))
(newline)
(loop (cdr lst))))
