You can use something like this...

  (defun find-netbsdman (manpage &rest rest)
    (let ((buffername (format "*netbsdman: %s*" manpage))
          (format-string "ssh edrx <at> caramelo \"sh -c 'PAGER=cat man %s'\"")
          (command (format format-string manpage)))
      (apply 'find-eoutput-reuse
             buffername
             `(progn (insert (find-sh0 ,command))
                     (Man-fontify-manpage))
             rest)))

Note that the name of the remote machine is fixed ("caramelo"),
and that you will need to be able to run commands on the remote
mahine using ssh without it asking for a password... this is what
I use to make ssh copy the adequate authorization keys:

  # (find-man "1 ssh-copy-id")

Success !

Hi,

Just a quick message to say how thankful I am to all of you.

I have successfully done my *real* first e-script in the *real*
life. The job was way way easier to do with eepitch-shell than if
I had to type all again by hand. I successfully migrated an
Oracle Dataguard from one machine to another with very few
keystrokes !!

Thank you.

	Xavier

Questions

Hi,

Is there an easy way to the equivalent (find-man "blah") remotely
instead of the current machine ?

For the e-script needs I mentionned earlier, I typed my commands
through eepitch-shell on a HP-UX commands which had different
commands than the one I am using here.

For example, (find-man "newfs") could not work on my notebook
whereas it could have been on the remote host.

Any clue ?

	Xavier

F3 binding conflict in emacs22

Hello group,

in emacs22 and higher f3 is by default bound to
"kmacro-start-macro-or-insert-counter", a very convenient key IMHO.
Unfortunately this binding conflicts with eev that bounds that key
to "eeb-default".  I use kboard macros all the time and I've grown
accustomed to the f3 key so every time I (re-)install eev I cancel
this binding and bound "eeb-default" to f7 instead.  I wonder
whether you could change this eev binding "officially".

Thanks,
Nikos

Difference between eechannel-xterm and eebg-channel-xterm

Hi,

I am not sure I see differences between these two items.

Can you explain it to me ?

Regards,

any people around ?

Hi,

This is a control message to check that I am not alone on this
mailing list :)

Please get back to us so we can discuss tips and tricks about
eev. Did you all quit ?

Spread emacswiki ?

Hi,

[This is for eev gurus]

Why don't we try to show examples (even simple) of what an
escript looks like and what we can do ?

I am pretty sure it would help eev to be known.

WDYT ?

Your recipes

Hi,

I am finding myselft to be not productive enough when writing
escripts. I like the way they work, I like what I can do with
them _but_ I guess I do not have the *good* method to feed my
escripts all day long. Thus, I have almost nothing and I am still
switching from emacs to a regular term/console window to type my
commands.

What would you recommend to help me be less shell-dependant ?
What do you use ? Do you have "skeletons"/templates ?

Regards

	Xavier

eechannel-do-this-line is not exactly working

Hello group,

For some reason the eechannel-do-this-line function is not working
properly in my system.  If I do:

(eechanel-xterm "A")
(eechannel "A")

an xterm is opened as expected.  But when I try to send lines to
this xterm using <f9> I get the following messages:

,----
| Wrote /home/nea/.eev/eeg.A.str
| apply: Searching for program: no such file or directory, kill -USR1 15387
`----

After that if I do (shell-command "kill -USR1 15387") the line is
send to xterm and gets executed.

This happens on a Debian/sid both with emacs22 and with the emacs
snapshot (GNU Emacss 23.0.60.1). 

,----[ cat ~/eev-current/VERSION ]
| Wed Feb  1 04:18:06 GMT 2006
| Wed Feb  1 02:18:06 BRST 2006

TIA,
Nikos
