X is nice. I use it to give myself graphics and funky font support in
Emacs. <grin>

I can't wait for my laptop to be fixed. Hard disk crash - ouch!
People have been walking up to me and asking me what happened. Two,
three days of going around kitted out in an M1 and a Twiddler, and
it's already become part of my image. ;) On the plus side, there are
lots of things I can't wait to try out. =) I've been sketching some
ideas for Emacs modules to make my life easier, and the discovery that
Emacs can have multiple frames with independent font sizes means I
don't have to stay in screen -x'd xterms in order to enjoy easy
switching from on-the-move big text to big-monitor tiny text. I'm also
thinking of hitting a combo that makes my Emacs instantly
black-and-white friendly - loading a different set of faces, perhaps?

Am going to be getting in touch with the valedictorian a batch or two
ahead of me. She's really brilliant, but she has a hard time doing
some things like reading her text messages because she's blind. My mom
thinks I might be able to help her do cool things with emacspeak and
alamin, the GSM SMS gateway I picked up. =) Might be a good project...
