I recently updated my MacOS Emacs to
GNU Emacs 28.2 (build 1, aarch64-apple-darwin21.1.0, NS appkit-2113.00 Version 12.0.1 (Build 21A559)) of 2022-09-12
The edit menu used to have a Text-properties element. That is no longer there and neither is set-text-properties or remove-text-properties. I use them fairly regularly. Is there a .elc file somewhere I am missing? (Though it looks like these might be in C.)
Emacs (unfortunately, misguidedly in my opinion) removed submenu Text Properties from the Edit menu, by default.
You need to load library facemenu to get the submenu added back:
M-x load-library facemenu
Or put this in your init file:
(require 'facemenu)
For example, it's command facemenu-remove-all that's menu item Text Properties > Remove Text Properties.

I am using Sublime Text-3 version 3.0 build 3143. I have connected to Salesforce using MavensMate and opened the VF Page, but dont see any color when Opened the VisualForce Page in Sublime Text. How to fixed this issue ??
VisualForce isn't something that Sublime supports out of the box, so in order to have things like syntax highlighting, you'll need to install a package that adds that support in.
The de-facto repository of third party add-on packages is Package Control, and doing a search reveals that there is a VisualForce package available.
The description for the package mentions that it provides syntax highlighting for .page files. Assuming that's the kind of file you're trying to open (I'm not familiar with VisualForce at all), this is probably what you want.
In particular, the content represented in your image appears like the following for me once this package is installed (except that I have elided what appears to be an extraneous </apex:outputText> after the email_us label):
For what it's worth, the package also includes completions to make creating such files easier.
Since you mentioned in comments that you're a little unclear on the process, here's a step by step set of instructions on how to get set up for this with Sublime Text 3143.
If you haven't already done so, you need to install Package Control. If it's not installed, the commands in the next step won't be available.
There are official installation instructions for this, but in your build of Sublime Text you can also select Tools > Install Package Control... from the menu or Install Package Control from the Command Palette in order to do the same thing.
If that menu item is not visible in your menu/command palette, then Package Control is already installed; the command is hidden if it's not needed.
Open the Command Palette with Tools > Command Palette or the appropriate key binding for your operation system (visible in that menu entry), then select the command Package Control: Install Package.
This will download the list of all packages and present them to you in a list; it may take a moment to download the whole thing. You'll see a spinner in the status line of the window to tell you the operation is in progress.
When the list of packages appears, select the VisualForce package from the list of packages; you can find it quicker by entering visual to filter the package list down.
Once this is done, the package will be installed; during the installation there will be a spinner in the status line to tell you, and the status line will briefly say that the package was installed once it's done, but it goes quick so if you blink you might miss it.
With the package now installed, you should be able to close your file and open it again to have the appropriate syntax applied to it.
You can also select Set Syntax: VisualForce from the command palette or select View > Syntax > VisualForce from the menu in order to manually set the syntax in the current file to the VisualForce syntax.
You'll need to do this for example when you create a new file since the default syntax is Plain Text and the appropriate syntax won't get set until you save the file with an appropriate extension first otherwise.
I have installed gvim in windows 7. When I right click on a file, I get list of editor to be opened with. I see a icon for notepad++, 7zip and beyond compare, but not for vim. it is tough to search "Edit with Vim" in the big list. Is it possible to add icon to "Edit with Vim". I tried setting ICON in registry to gvim.exe path, but that didn't work
I am currently having a crack at coding this up "for real" (but no success yet).
In the meantime, here's what I did on my machine as a sort of workaround:
Create a new text file and call it (for example) vim.reg
and paste this into the file:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shell\Edit with Vim]
"Icon"="\"C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Vim\\vim74\\gvim.exe\""
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shell\Edit with Vim\command]
#="\"C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Vim\\vim74\\gvim.exe\" \"%1\""
and then right-click on the file and select Merge.
Or just manually add those keys directly in RegEdit if you're comfortable with that.
You may need to restart Explorer.exe (eg. log out and back in) for it to take effect.
This will add a new "Edit with vim" entry, with the icon, to the context menu for every filetype.
If you want it only for text files, for example, then change the two occurrences of "*" in the file to "txtfile".
The other vim context menu entries (eg. open with existing vim session) will not be affected - they will still not have icons.
UPDATE:
From the bug report that Christian mentioned, it looks like someone else has now implemented this, in version 7.4.724.
Vim.org reports that the currently release is 7.4.729, so it should include that.
The only trouble is that the Windows binaries available for download from the site are from 2013.
But vim.org also suggests a way to get the latest version, precompiled for Windows:
For the latest version with all patches included see Cream below.
These versions are unofficial, but the download number is high and
complaints are few.
And
For an unofficial version that does include all the latest patches and
optionally a bit more: Cream.
The "one-click installer" mentioned includes the Cream changes.
For the "real Vim" use the "without Cream" version listed further down.
As far as I know, this is not possible yet. There is a whishlist bug that requests this feature, but no one has contributed code yet.
I am completely new to Python and wanted to try this code from the tutorial:
istrue = 1
if istrue:
print ("be carefull!")
The code itself should be fine, but I can not find any way to execute this code inside the editor [Komodo-Edit](http://www.activestate.com/komodo-edit)
I am used to Visual Studio and QtCreator (experienced C++/Qt developer). I would expect a menu for debugging and a command such as 'start debugging' which should open a console or use a console inside the editor. I would in any case refuse to use a dos console because then the whole idea of using an IDE would be useless.
If other Python IDEs would be more useful (on windows, no costs) I could switch to another one (except for vim/emacs).
I used to use Komodo edit, but not anymore as It's more of a text editor than an IDE. I reccomend using Ninja-IDE or Eclipse with PyDev. But if you insist on using Konodo Edit, here's an option:
Go here: Toolbox > Add > New Command...
in the top field enter the name 'Run Python file' or something else. Then go to the 'command' field and enter this:
%(python) "%F"
Optionally, you could also specify key binding for fast python executing.
I tried Komodo Edit version 9 and 10. Matthias' method work for the version 9. Version 10, I couldn't see the option to choose the Interpreter.
I wanted to use tab file feature of gvim, hence I moved to gvim 7.0 from gvim 6.4.6 since older one does not support it. However to my amazement I see much better GUI in my older gvim. Not only the appearance but options are also less. For example in the "Edit" menu there is no select font option which was there in GVIM 6.4.6.
Do I need to change something (.vimrc etc) to have GUI and features better than 6.4.6? Attach is the screenshot showing new vs old to give you an idea...
Thanks for the help

You're comparing apples and oranges. Vim can be compiled with different GUI toolkits, and your newer, less-appealing looking one was compiled without the modern GTK2 GUI.
You can check this via :version. Try to get a different Vim build.
I recently updated my Eclipse to the latest release 3.5 and since then I have a very annoying problem with c&p using the shortcuts.
In an editor (xml, jsp, doesn't matter which one) I try to copy something and paste it somewhere else, nothing happens. When I cut out something and put it somewhere else I sometimes get something else (like a messed up part of my previous selection) or just some whitespaces. This gets even worse when I change lines in between.
First I thought that my keyboard is probably broken but it works just fine in other programs. Then I tried using the context menus' c&p and there it works. Yesterday I managed to get at least an error message when I tried to copy a file in the navigator from one project to another (the message was just "error using copy...bla". no details).
Does anyone else have this problem, or know how to solve it?
I am running on Kubuntu 9.04, and have quite some plugins installed (but only from the Galileo Updates Site), like Birt, Mylin, WST, or Subversive.
For my problem, I had to go to Window > Preferences > Java > Editor > Typing, and uncheck "Update imports"
This must be related to the key mapping, since those shortcuts are defined according to context.
(Column "When", in Preferences / General / Keys)
Check if those shortcuts do not work for any editor (do they work for Java editor?)
If they work for some editor, not for other, then some plugin settings must have re-affected them to another command.
This is caused by various X clipboard managers doing weird things with the clipboard. (bug report).
In XFCE the clipman applet was rolled in XFCE 4.8, and will be the source of these problems.
To fix this in XFCE - kill xfce4-settings-helper. You will need to use Settings Manager -> Session and Startup -> Session to kill it, as otherwise it may restart automatically.
To prevent this starting next time, you will need to remove it from your startup/login programs in Settings Manager > Session and Startup > Application Autostart.
Problem was solved with newer Eclipse releases. I think >= 3.6. Depending on your distribution there may be a (back)port of this (not on my Xubuntu 11.04) within the repositories.
So a tarball installation of Eclipse 4.0 works perfectly for me. Cut&Paste works and I am lucky that my plugins are compatible to 4.0.
Unfortunately Sublime Text has the same problems.
I read somewhere that in KDE maybe Klipper / "Klipper on the panel" conflicts with eclipse copy action.
It's a tool for clipboard history. Try to remove that! It may solve your problem :-/
For me the xfce4-settings-helper killing worked.
Workaround:
You can cut&paste from the compare view. So simply compare the un-copyable file (e.g., local history) with a different version and Control-C what you need there.
In the *.java editor page, right click and select open in text editor. Past your snippet there. Your Snippet will show in the *.java page'
I use Eclipse Kepler for PHP development. It's dumb I know.
None of the solutions suggested here has solved this source of frustration.
I can confirm the copy function works whether shortcut keys are bound or not. As I can copy from eclipse and paste into any other application. Except eclipse.
My solution. Accidental discovery: Eclipse Kepler will allow you to paste outside the php open and close tags and allow you to click and drag the highlighted block of content into into position.
Acceptable solution for small bits of code. Horribly crippling for larger development environments.
For Xming, this resolved the problem for me. In XLaunch uncheck Clipboard (clipboard manager) in the "Specify parameter settings" GUI form.
