Is there a emacs valgrind interface? - emacs

I was wondering if there is a reliable emacs interface for valgrind and its different tools?
I have searched and sadly not found anything.
It would be interesting to have something to jump to the concerning lines via memcheck.
Thank you in advance.

The compilation mode has regexps for this. You may like compilation-shell-minor-mode as well.

Tuareg mode: «Buffer x.ml has no process»

I’m quite new to tuareg-mode so I don’t know how to fix «Buffer x.ml has no process» problem. As far as I can see it skips syntax checks, etc. because of this. I don’t do anything but just opening my x.ml file which loads tuareg. Thanks in advance for any suggestion!
This is error message of merlin mode.
Install and set up merlin.

YADR look on Emacs

I just discovered yadr with an amazing look&feel that makes macvim really looks like Emacs:
I was wondering if anybody is aware of a way to make emacs buffer bars having a similar look?
Originally posted this as a comment since I wasn't sure what exactly you were talking about in the screenshot, but since it answers your question I'm posting it as an answer.
The effect you are seeing is the Powerline plugin for vim. This idea has been ported to Emacs and is available on EmacsWiki. There are a few forks of this available on GitHub as well.
There are many Emacs ports of Powerline, but the most notable is this one and this being the original port to Emacs. A world of caution though - cool toys like the powerline tend to play bad with some modes and are mostly pretty rather than practical.

Emacs DNS lookup

I noticed, when my network is down, Emacs is starting a lot slower. stracing it, it shows how emacs is trying to resolve hostname :S
Anyone knows how to disable this? Why emacs is needs hostname?
Also, I'm keeping .emacs minimal and double checked if some of modules using dns or any network queries.
Thanks.
A very similar issue was recently discussed here.

Xemacs does not show compilation errors anymore

I know this sounds really stupid, but:
I used to compile an Android jni project under Xemacs. The only feature that I needed was the ability to locate the place reported by gcc in the source code, edit and save.
But now this does not work anymore. Probably Xemacs caught some keypresses intended for another window (that is, I did not mention which one has the focus) and switched into a different mode. When I restart Xemacs, it works initially and after a while stops working again.
Question: how do I make it functional again?
What happens when you try this in GNU Emacs? It seems you don't haven't
heavily customized XEmacs so switching shouldn't be painful.
I hope someone with XEmacs expertise can help you, but XEmacs has 13
THIRTEEN followers on Stackoverflow. Clearly your chances of getting help will
improve is you try the Emacs that more people use.

How to write an emacs mode for a new language?

I would like to write an Emacs major mode for a 4GL.
Can someone show me a tutorial?
As far as I googled I was able to find only this broken:

If you're lazy, one easy way is to extend generic-mode to know about your new language:

I do this a lot for config files for applications that I work with a lot to get decent syntax highlighting. Here's one I did for the asterisk PBX a long time ago as an example.
