synth.el v. 0.2dev


 synth.el --- music sheet player, synthesizer, music via bash scripts

(The 2 bash scripts:

 * beep_to_speaker.sh
 * command-line invocation of synth.el

 ...  which I posted separately a few hours ago, are probably briefly
held up for moderator-review. If they don't show up by tomorrow, I
will add "add-on for synth.el" (which, it seems, makes them pass
automatic mod-check) to the subject and resend them. )





New Features since 0.1
======================
* A typo corrected everywhere in the M-x synth-choose-speaker section,
that makes the whole section finally make sense to the user.

New Features since 0.0
======================

* beep.el is now (more sanely) known as synth.el, following a name-change
  suggestion by RMS.


* The new letter r also stands for 'rest'.  This is an alternative to

The posts haven't shown up. As promised, here is synth.sh, which helps
with the command-line invocation of synth.el

;; Time-stamp: <2005-07-31 15:54:19 deego>

;;  Note that you don't need this.  synth.el can generate bash
;;  equivalents for you which you can directly use from bash in any
;;  case.  
;; But, if you still want to be able to call synth.el from bash, you can
;; use this script to do so.

The posts haven't shown up. As promised, here is beep_to_speaker.sh

====================================================
#!/usr/bin/octave -qf

### This is needed if you try out the sound-speaker option in the
### just-posted synth.el.  Place this file somewhere in your bash path and
### make it executable, say, in ~/bin/, do make sure you have octave-forge
### installed (apt-get install octave2.1 octave-forge)

## Syntax: beep_to_speaker.sh <freq Hz> <duration ms>  <volume> [more args]
## Every set of 3 consecutive arguments  are taken to mean
## freq,duration,volume, and we beep for them.

## To make anything its default value, specify a -2 for its value.

Rmail. emacs. spamassassin. emacs commands. Rmail commands.

Question
a.
For rmail in emacs where the system already runs spamassassin and
puts the spamassassin headers on messages, how do you sort out
spam type messages so that you can still check around in that
sorting in case of any false positives?...

b.
For novice users without expertise in writing dotfiles, for
novice users without expertise in programming, what emacs
commands, rmail commands can be used to sort out spam type
messages according to spamassassin headers rankings?

c.
How do you create a whitelist of favorite correspondents
so you can read their messages first?...

Using a Custom Emacs mode

Ok, so I have an emacs mode that I'd like to use but I don't know how to 
actually use it in emacs.  For some strange reason, I can't find that 
explained anywhere.  Can someone tell me how to use a mode that's 
written for emacs?  It's not one of those ones that emacs comes with.

Short answer:

M-x load-file RET foo.el
M-x foo-mode

Long answer:

You will make things easier on yourself by putting foo.el in the system
site-lisp directory (C-h v load-path) or in any directory of your
choosing that you add to load-path (by modifying your ~/.emacs file).

You will make things run much faster if you M-x byte-compile-file foo.el
(before loading it).

foo.el will likely contain installation instructions in the comment
block near the top of the file, which will suggest autoload commands to
add to your system's default.el file or your personal .emacs file (so
you don't have to explicitly load it).

The installation instructions will also likely show you how to add an
entry to auto-mode-alist, to invoke foo-mode automatically when editing
files with that mode's conventional name.

P.S.  Please post questions to gnu.emacs.help in the future; that's

In the buffer you want to use it in, you can call it like any other
emacs command.  Like:

    M-x zachs-mode

You should also look at the Elisp docs under "Modes".  Especially read
about the variable auto-mode-alist.
