Does Emacs 23.2 support DDE, OLE, COM or DCOM?
In other words, under Windows, can it integrate seamlessly with Eclipse as an in-place editor?
No, you can't do that. Eclipse has Emacs key bindings built in though, you can change them in preferences - they work quite well.

I recently installed Arch, and the version of emacs that it has comes with an aggressive auto-completion feature that doesn't let me create a new file. It is also very annoying. How do I get rid of it?
I have Archlinux too, but it didn't come with emacs. I think that you have installed this module: http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/AutoComplete
Check it, and if this is the case, uninstall the addition.
I am new to emacs.I was trying to add an auto-complete for systemverilog.I tried using marmalade repo autocomplete (http://marmalade-repo.org/packages/auto-complete).I copied the entire files into
"C:\emacs.emacs.d".
I installed using
M-x package-install [RET] auto-complete [RET]
But still autocomplete is not working.I read many documents but was notable to solve the issue
Can anyone suggest me an autocomplete file for systemverilog and explain hoe to install that file.My OS is Windows 8.1
If you have Verilog-mode already installed, autocomplete is bound to Alt-Tab by default, it should just work. Or have you already tried that shortcut and it didn't work?
I learned that CEDET comes built in emacs 24.3.1 which I have installed.
Unfortunately, all tutorials online instruct you to install CEDET and provide you with config files that refer and load the installed packages and files.
How is it possible to configure the built in CEDET and use it without any external installation?
I am not sure how to take advantage of the built in version.
It's circa Emacs 23, but Alex Ott's A Gentle Introduction to CEDET still looks relevant to the built-in version? (it covers both versions).
I would like to use Emacs as a development environment for Arduino programming. What are some tips or links to use Emacs to program Arduino?
Is there an official (or de facto) Emacs mode?
Also, am I going to miss something in Arduino IDE if I use Emacs exclusively?
There's a nice Arduino mode on GitHub.
Just wraps cc-mode, but it does a nice job.
Update:
The EmacsWiki has a page dedicated to Ardunio Support for Emacs. The setup has a few steps but once done it allows you to compile and upload sketches from inside Emacs.
You can enable an external editor option that will allow you to edit projects using external editors and then use the Arduino IDE as some kind of terminal just for compiling and uploading.
I just edit stuff in Emacs, then switch to the IDE to just hit compile and upload. No need for makefiles.
Arduino code is just C++ wearing a dress and hat. You should be able to use that mode in Emacs without problems. You may miss the one-click-compile-and-transfer button, as well as the organization of the libraries from the official IDE. You can replicate either in Emacs of course. There is nothing the official IDE does that Emacs can't do.
There is support in the Emacs tool CEDET for programming with Arduino. As I write this, the support is available in CEDET 1.1 or later from cedet.sf.net.
It has all the development features as described for CEDET, plus Arduino only features, like uploading your program to the Arduino. See more here:
http://www.randomsample.de/cedetdocs/cedet/Arduino-Features.html
I use this Makefile and I find it very useful.
http://ed.am/dev/make/arduino-mk
As previously mentioned you do not need any external mode.
Since I am a newbie interested about learning Arduino I write small programs. Instead of creating several sub directories, one per snippet, and putting the makefile in each I decided to do it on one directory.
So that I'd be able to built the last edited source file (*.cc) . Here is my current Makefile.
SOURCES := $(shell ls -tp *.cc | grep -v /$ | head -1)
BOARD := uno
LIBRARIES := Stepper
include ~/arduino/arduino.mk
The commands that the Arduino IDE uses in the background change often, so the above info is probably out of date. I'm using IDE version 1.6.4 at the moment.
To find out the current commands, in the Arduino IDE | File | Preferences, check "Show verbose output during: x compilation x upload". Then you can see the full command in the IDE log window, and adapt your Emacs Makefile to use them.
For IDE 1.6.4, targeting a LilyPad Arduino board, that shows avr-gcc for the compiler, and avrdude for the uploader.
Choose C++ Mode in Emacs, then run the files in the Arduino IDE. Choose avr-gcc as the compiler, and avrdude as the uploader, if you want to compile in Emacs. Merry making!
I'm working on a project that include both Java (on the client side) and Perl (on the server side), and I would really like to use Eclipse to edit my Perl scripts instead of going to another editor. I've tried to use the EPIC plugin. However, I have no way of setting up a run environment for these scripts on my local machine, so the plugin displays all kinds of errors related to missing libraries and other external dependencies.
I just want a text editor with nice syntax highlighting for Perl. Any suggestions? Any way that you can turn off the runtime error checking when using the EPIC plugin? I wasn't able to find anything with a quick search.
It isn't a setting, per se, in the workbench. It's a per-project setting.
While in your Perl project, select Project->Properties. In that dialog, click on "Builders". You probably have just the one-- "Perl Auto Builder". De-select it and click "Ok".
Unfortunately, you'll have to do this for each separate Perl project.
You could try Perlipse, which appears to be an active project.
You didn't indicate your OS. Try Padre - it is cross-platform. It can be installed with the CPAN shell (if you use Strawberry Perl on Windows, you will need at least the version from October). Padre is still rapidly evolving, but already has support for Perl 5 and 6 (6 will require a plugin). HTML, JavaScript and CSS (also with plugins). Many other plugins are already written, for example for Perl::Critic.
Emacs is a great text editor for Perl.
cperl-mode has the best Perl syntax highlighting support of any
editor (even Padre), and Emacs should meet all of your editing needs.
It is easily scriptable, and there are thousands of extensions
available for it. (Some even make support for Perl better, like Stylish::REPL.)
Use EditPlus, simplest editor for syntax highlighting. Works well for Perl.
