I'm trying to follow a very simple example to get started with Julia using ESS. But the very first command:
using DataFrames
results in emacs' spinning slash, nothing else happens, and the command prompt is not restored. This is emacs 24.3.1 on OS X 10.8.5, ess-20140304.2344 installed via emacs' package system. In my init.el, I have
(require ess-site)
(setq inferior-julia-program-name
"/Applications/Julia/Contents/Resources/julia/bin/julia-basic")
Note: /Applications/Julia is a softlink to /Applications/Julia-0.2.1.app
I tried the "using" command with the Julia.app terminal and it worked fine.
Tried it using julia/bin/julia-basic in an iTerm2 session and it hung. Tried julia/bin/julia-readline in an iTerm2 session and it hung. Tried julia/bin/julia and it worked in iTerm2 but not in emacs, which is strange since that's just a link to julia-readline. Tried putting julia/bin on emacs' exec-path. Nothing seems to work.
Any suggestions?

I want to use the command C-c C-x C-l to preview latex code in org-mode. Since the emacs-nox cannot do this, I tried apt-get install emacs24. However, after I have installed the emacs24 with GUI, I get an error like
can't find \`latex'(needed to convert LaTeX fragments to images)
I have installed texlive2016, and I can latex *.tex in shell command.
I added the /paht/to/latex to .emacs, but it don't work well.
Adding the following to my init.el makes it work:
;; Making emacs find latex (so that C-c C-x C-l works on orgmode)
(setenv "PATH" (concat ":/Library/TeX/texbin/" (getenv "PATH")))
(add-to-list 'exec-path "/Library/TeX/texbin/")
It is not a very pretty solution, but it does the job and is very easy to modify and understand.
This solution worked on a Mac running macOS Sierra and Emacs v25.1.
My crystal ball tells me that the problem is that you're not starting the GUI Emacs from a terminal, so it can't inherit your $PATH settings. See for example https://emacs.stackexchange.com/questions/10722/ (that question is within OSX, but the same problem appears in other systems).
Apparently you can set env-vars globally (so that they affect all applications, including those started directly from the GUI) in ~/.pam_environment (that's for GNU/Linux systems). Note that this is only consulted when you login, so you need to logout+login for changes to take effect.
I've been trying to get tramp to work for Emacs and was having some problems so I upgraded my Aquamacs to the latest version. Ever since then I've had massive problems with shortcuts. C-x C-f no longer works as find-file and instead does next-buffer. If I try to remap it back to find-file in my .emacs file it still doesn't work. Though I have managed to map C-x C-o to find-file temporarily. Several other shortcuts are also broken inexplicably (with no sign of anything in my .emacs file). I've tried deleting my .emacs file completely, but it doesn't refresh back to the original shortcuts though I do know that it is reading that file because when I do make some changes ( such as C-x C-o mapped to find-file) it does reflect this. However, even when I delete the .emacs file it still keeps the color-face I chose in it.
It's also giving me problems with tramp still in that I get the following error even though I can ssh to the exact same remote host just fine when using a shell window inside of Aquamacs:
"ssh: Could not resolve hostname ssh: nodename nor servname provided, or not known. Process tramp/ssh ssh exited abnormally with code 255"
I've tried reverting to older versions of Aquamacs, deleting the application and reinstalling, but nothing seems to work. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Mac OS X 10.6.8, Aquamacs 2.4 Emacs 23.50.1.
The environment is Emacs 24.1.1 on Ubuntu. using Ipython for python programming.
The auto indent is works well when running ipython command on shell directly, but when i come to emacs run ipython there is no auto indent any more. and even worse when i type TAB it will prompt the Completion buffer.I also have searched this issue many times but still not found a practical method. as a result i have to enter space manually.
anyone could help to resolve this issue ?
1. auto indent on emacs ipython shell
2. disable completion on emacs ipython shell separately.keep the Tab-completion work when i am not in ipython interactive shell.
In emacs you can use python-mode, and from there send the code to *REPL* buffer with C-c C-c.
When you send the buffer for the first time, it asks you what executable you use for python, so you can use ipython, or other one.
Any invocation of ipython-shell should do a correct setup.
Please file a bug-report.
If running python-mode.el -- modeline shows "Py" --
please checkout current trunk first

I'm trying to drive emacs on OSX using Dragon Naturally Speaking running inside a Windows VM. Rather than running emacs in the VM, I'd like to drive an emacs (built from the HEAD of the repository) already running on the mac side of things. So, after a hunt through the emacs lisp manual I came up with the following snippets of lisp (currently running from the scratch buffer while I work stuff out):
;; This part is run from an emacsclient -t session
(defvar slave-frame last-event-frame)
;; and this is run in a GUI frame
(defadvice handle-switch-frame (after update-slave-redirect-advice activate)
(unless (eq last-event-frame slave-frame)
(redirect-frame-focus slave-frame last-event-frame)))
And all is well. I type into the terminal window, displaying buffer A and my typing appears in the GUI frame busily dsplaying buffer B. Great. Until I do C-x C-f or any other command that needs the minibuffer, at which point I get the error Terminal 1 is locked, cannot read from it.
I'm I barking up the wrong tree here, or is there a way to make redirect-frame-focus work nicely with commands that use the minibuffer?
Piers,
What behavior do you want, redirection to a minibuffer on the (Windows) client or a minibuffer on the server? Also, what version/flavor of emacs are you using?
When I launch emacs in console mode or in terminal with -nw option, emacs launches in terminal but none of keys work. I cannot type anything or even cannot exit by C-x C-c. Though I can see a blinking cursor. Same emacs works fine in GUI mode. Any clues will be helpful. I'm running debian 2.6.
I finally resolved the issue by installing emacs23-nox. Probably it installed any missing dependency. Now launching emacs in terminal mode works. Interestingly, when I had uninstalled and installed emacs again, that did not resolve the problem. Anyway, I'm all set.
