I downloaded emacs from
http://home.att.ne.jp/alpha/z123/emacs-mac-e.html
It said that ruby was installed.
I have spent two hours searching this list and the web, and I cannot
find any tutorial telling beginners what to do. Not in emacs, in emacs
wiki, in ruby sites...
There are a bewildering set of instructions on download this or that --
do I need to with this emacs -- and put this code or that code in
..emacs file -- do I need to and if so which, do I have to look at the
year the advice is posted!!! --
I have a snipet of ruby that works at the terminal window. I copied it
into emacs. Now what? compile did not do anything.
Here is the snipet
--------------------------
require 'tk'
root = TkRoot.new
button = TkButton.new(root) {
text "Hello,Anne"
command proc { puts "I said"}
}
button.pack
Tk.mainloop
-------------------------------
and here is emacs answer
-*- mode: compilation; default-directory: "~/Desktop/" -*-
Compilation started at Thu Nov 17 10:01:06
make -k ruby
make: Nothing to be done for `ruby'.
Compilation finished at Thu Nov 17 10:01:07
-------------------------------
So what is it I am supposed to do to run this code from emacs?
I read about Mx which I read means
using esc on my mac followed by x
pressing r space offered various completions. I found I could choose
ruby-mode as one of the completion of the esc x command. Is that
helpful? Can I use esc x to run my snipet from emacs?
