Did you know? Emacs supports killing rectangles of text!
Issuing “C-x r k” (kill-rectangle) will kill a rectangular area of text. This can be very useful when you have fixed-string text you must process.
yank-rectangle “C-x r y” will paste it where you like.
As usual Emacs rocks!

Ops I did it again. Although I repeatedly said I didn’t love emacs Lisp, I finally managed to learn it. So I want to share with you my tips, to help entering in the Emacs Lisp world in a fast, fun and easy way.
First of all Lisp is a very elegant language, as you may expect. Lisp is so elegant you will have to take your time to learn it, because it is a bit cryptic. To make things even worst, emacs function names are less than intuitive. The solution anyway is here: cookbooks!

So you know I need Emacs on every PC I use.
On windows7 I stick with a linuxVM when possibile, but sometime you need maximum speed, and EmacsWin32 is a good guy. Then I read the exact description of my problem…
Emacs on my Windows 7 work laptop was annoying slow when starting (around 10s). If closed and restarted, startup was immediate until, after about 30 seconds, it was slow again. According to Google, slowness might be due to failing DNS lookups of the laptop's hostname.
and I find out this solution: stop netlogon service via a command likenet stop netlogon
The add also this line to your .emacs...(setq w32-get-true-file-attributes nil)

Hi Internet, I am Giovanni `Daitan` Giorgi (you can find my fingerprint from 1993 emails out of there) and I am a IT wizard. I can code Java EJBs with one hand, and build a cakephp-enabled application with the other, while saying you how to set up your amazon aws in zero time. And I can code real 6502 assembly in binary
But…I found maven difficult to master… (every hero as a Achilles’ heel..)

Vista la crescente discesa dei prezzi degli ebook, ho voluto provare ad acquistare anche io uno di questi lettori, e la mia scelta è caduta sul Kindle Touch, che Amazon Italia vende a 130€ circa, spese di spedizione escluse. Uno dei maggiori freni alla diffusione degli ebook al momento è la estrema incompatibilità che c’è tra i vari formati, che di fatto impedisce all’utente finale di acquistare i libri su più siti di e-commerce.
Ma piuttosto che addentrarmi nell’argomento e-book (di per sé molto complesso da trattare) farò di seguito una più modesta recensione dell’e-reader più famoso: Amazon Kindle Touch, appunto.
