Emacs
is an extensible, customizable, self-documenting
real-time display editor
. At the core of Emacs lies an
Emacs Lisp
interpreter, the language in which the majority of Emacs' built-in functionality and extensions are implemented. GNU Emacs uses GTK as its default X toolkit, though it functions equally well within a CLI environment.
Telepítés
Install
one of the following packages:
emacs
- stable release,
emacs-nox
- without GUI; only run on a terminal emulator,
emacs-wayland
- PGTK enabled,
Other variants can be searched for, as an example
emacs-lucid
AUR
provides the Lucid (Athena) toolkit in place of GTK.
If you want Emacs spell checking to work, also install
aspell
and an aspell language, such as
aspell-en
Használat
Before launching emacs, you should know how to close it (especially if you run it in a terminal): use the
Ctrl+x
Ctrl+c
key sequence. If you are new to Emacs, it's recommended to work through the official tutorial. To do so, first start Emacs, then select "Tutorial" from the splash screen or press
Ctrl+h
and then press
t
.
To start Emacs run:
$ emacs
or, to use it from the console:
$ emacs -nw
or, for fast loading (no .emacs) and editing within CLI:
$ emacs -Q -nw
If you installed the nox version,
emacs
and
emacs -nw
will be the same.
A file name can also be provided to open that file immediately:
$ emacs filename.txt
No colors
By default, Emacs starts with a color theme showing hyperlinks in dark blue. To start Emacs on a text terminal without any color theme or scheme:
$ emacs -nw --color=no
This will cause all text to appear in the foreground color of the terminal — normally white text on a black background, or black text on a white background.
As a daemon
In order to avoid reloading the Emacs configuration file every time Emacs starts, you can run Emacs as a daemon:
$ emacs --daemon
You may then connect to the daemon by running:
$ emacsclient -nc
Which creates a new frame
-c
(use
-t
if you prefer to use it in the terminal) and does not hog the terminal
-n
(
--no-wait
).
Note that some programs such as Mutt or Git (for commit messages) wait for the editor to finish, so you cannot use the
-n
parameter.
If your default editor is set to use it, you will have to specify an alternate editor (
e.g.
emacsclient -a "" -t
) for those programs.
As a systemd unit
A systemd unit is included in Emacs 26.1. The unit is installed with Emacs, but it must be
enabled
as a
user unit
(not a system-wide) after installing Emacs:
$ systemctl --user enable --now emacs
After the service is started, Emacs is ready.
If you want to be able to start graphical emacs frames through
emacsclient
on Wayland, a specific
drop-in snippet
is needed (unless you are running
emacs-wayland
), as shown in
EmacsWiki
.
Note that systemd user units do not inherit environment variables from a login shell (like
~/.bash_profile
). See
systemd/User#Environment variables
for more information.
If you start emacs as a daemon, you may want to set the
VISUAL
and
EDITOR
environment variables to
emacsclient
so that programs that start an editor use emacsclient instead of starting a new full instance of the editor. Programs that use an external editor include email programs (for editing the message), Git (for editing the commit message), and less (the
v
command for editing the displayed file). Do not use the
-n
(
--nowait
) option to emacsclient, since programs typically expect editing to be finished when the editor exits.
It is also recommended to change any GUI start menu entries (or equivalent) for Emacs to point to emacsclient instead of emacs, so that the emacs daemon is used instead of starting a new emacs process.
Getting help
Emacs has a built-in tutorial which can be accessed by clicking the first link on the splash screen and selecting
Help>Emacs Tutorial
from the menu or by pressing
C-h t
.
To read the tutorial in a language other than English, use the command
Alt x
, and enter
help-with-tutorial-spec-language
Emacs is self-documenting by design. As such, a great deal of information is available to determine the name of a specific command or its keybinding, for example. See all contextual help bindings with
C-h C-h
. You can access the quick help for the Emacs help system with
C-h ?
.
Emacs also includes a set of reference cards, useful for beginners and experts alike, see
/usr/share/emacs/
version
/etc/refcards/
.
The manuals
If you really want to master Emacs, the most recommended source of documentation remains the official manuals:
Emacs: the complete Emacs user manual.
Emacs FAQ.
Emacs Lisp Intro: if you never used any programming language before.
Elisp: if you are already familiar with a programming language.
You can access them as HTML documents or PDFs from
GNU.org
or directly from Emacs itself thanks to the embedded 'info' reader:
C-h i
. Press
m
to choose a book.
Some users prefer to read books using 'info' because of its convenient shortcuts, its paragraphs adapting to window width and the font adapted to current screen resolution. Some find it less irritating to the eyes. Finally you can easily copy content from the book to any Emacs buffer, and you can even execute Lisp code snippets directly from the examples.
You may want to read the
Info
book to know more about it:
C-h i m info <RET>
.
Press
?
while in info mode for a quick list of shortcuts.
You can read
man pages
with Emacs with
M-x man <RET>
.
Note that man pages for most GNU programs aren't as complete as their Info manuals.
Configuration
One of Emacs's main features is its extensibility and the ease of configuration. Emacs has a built-in customization engine. You can do
M-x customize
which displays a list of customization options. For how to use this interface, see the Easy Customization info node:
(info "(emacs) Easy Customization")
. You can set customization opens just for one Emacs session or save them into a configuration file so that they are saved across Emacs sessions. Note that this is what the customization interface does if you select
Apply and Save
.
When Emacs is started, it normally tries to load a Lisp program from an "initialization file", or "init file" for short. This file, if it exists, specifies how to initialize Emacs for you. Emacs looks for your init file at
~/.emacs
,
~/.emacs.el
,
~/.emacs.d/init.el
, or
~/.config/emacs/init.el
. See the info node "Init File" for more:
(info "(emacs) Init File")
Tips and tricks
TRAMP
TRAMP (Transparent Remote Access, Multiple Protocols) is an extension which, as its name suggests, provides transparent access to remote files across a number of protocols. When prompted for a filename, entering a specific form will invoke TRAMP. Some examples:
To prompt for the root password before opening
/etc/hosts
with root permissions:
C-x C-f /sudo::/etc/hosts
To connect to 'remotehost' as 'you' via SSH and open the file
~/example.txt
:
C-x C-f /ssh:you@remotehost:~/example.txt
The path for TRAMP is typically of the form '/[protocol]:[[user@]host]:<file>'.
To connect to 'myhost' as 'you' and edit
/etc/hosts
with
sudo
:
/ssh:you@remotehost|sudo:remotehost:/etc/hosts
TRAMP supports much more than the examples above might indicate. For more information refer to the TRAMP info manual, which is distributed with Emacs.
Using Emacs as git mergetool
By default, Git provides support for using Emacs' Emerge mode as a merge tool. However you may prefer the Ediff mode. Unfortunately this mode is not supported by git for technical reasons. There is still a way to use it by evaluating some elisp code upon emacs call.
.gitconfig
[mergetool.ediff]
    cmd = emacs --eval \" (progn (defun ediff-write-merge-buffer () (let ((file ediff-merge-store-file)) (set-buffer ediff-buffer-C) (write-region (point-min) (point-max) file) (message \\\"Merge buffer saved in: %s\\\" file) (set-buffer-modified-p nil) (sit-for 1))) (setq ediff-quit-hook 'kill-emacs ediff-quit-merge-hook 'ediff-write-merge-buffer) (ediff-merge-files-with-ancestor \\\"$LOCAL\\\" \\\"$REMOTE\\\" \\\"$BASE\\\" nil \\\"$MERGED\\\"))\" 

[merge]
	tool = ediff
Note that the command has to be on a single line.
In the above example, we launch a new instance of Emacs. You might want to use emacsclient for quicker startup; it is not recommended though since the Ediff call is not really clean: it could mess with your current Emacs session.
If you want an instant startup you can use the
-q
parameter. If you want to launch Emacs quickly while preserving at least a part of your configuration, you can call Emacs with
emacs -q -l ~/.emacs-light
where the light configuration file loads only what you need for Ediff.
See
kerneltrap.org
and
stackoverflow
for more details on this trick and the Ediff issue.
Using Caps Lock as Control key
Some users like this behavior to avoid the so-called "emacs pinky".  A nice way to achieve this in GUI desktops (Xorg or Wayland), terminals, and even the console is to use
keyd
.  Install the package and create this config file:
/etc/keyd/main.conf
[ids]	
*

[main]
capslock = overload(control, noop)
Then enable and start the keyd service.
Multiplexing emacs and emacsclient
Opening a new file in the same
emacs-session
requires the use of
emacsclient
.
emacs
command can be itself wrapped to do the smarter job to open the file if the session exists.
To start session you need to
start-server
. This snippet will create server in first session of emacs. Add this to your
emacs
configuration file.
.emacs or .emacs.d/init.el
(require 'server)
(unless (server-running-p)
  (server-start))
Shell alias method is not adequate for this since you also need to pass variables or start the independent session of your own. Add this to the
.bashrc
or any rc file of your shell. This will make your
emacs
command behave like emacsclient if the argument is passed.
function emacs {
    if [[ $# -eq 0 ]]; then
        /usr/bin/emacs # "emacs" is function, will cause recursion
        return
    fi
    args=($*)
    for ((i=0; i <= ${#args}; i++)); do
        local a=${args[i]}
        # NOTE: -c for creating new frame
        if [[ ${a:0:1} == '-' && ${a} != '-c' && ${a} != '--' ]]; then
            /usr/bin/emacs ${args[*]}
            return
        fi
    done
    setsid emacsclient -n -a /usr/bin/emacs ${args[*]}
}
If you want to run it in a new session just do
emacs
file
-
.
Multiple configurations
You can use several configurations and tell Emacs to load one or the other.
For example, let us define two configuration files.
.emacs
(load "~/.emacs.d/main" nil t)
(load "~/.emacs.d/functions" nil t)
(load "~/.emacs.d/modes" nil t)
(load "~/.emacs.d/plugins" nil t)
(load "~/.emacs.d/theme" nil t)
This is the full configuration  we load for the daemon. But the
plugins
file is huge and slow to load. If we want to spawn a new Emacs instance that does not need the
plugins
features, it can be cumbersome to load it every time in the long run.
.emacs-light
(load "~/.emacs.d/main" nil t)
(load "~/.emacs.d/functions" nil t)
(load "~/.emacs.d/modes" nil t)
(load "~/.emacs.d/theme" nil t)
And now we launch Emacs with
emacs -q -l ~/.emacs-light
You can create an alias to ease the call.
Local and custom variables
You can define variables in your configuration file that can be later one modified locally for a file.
(defcustom my-compiler "gcc" "Some documentation")
Now in any file you can define local variables in two ways, see
the manual for complete details
Using
M-x add-file-local-variable-prop-line
, which adds a commented line at the beginning similar to:
// -*- my-compiler:g++; mode:c++ -*-
Or you can use
M-x add-file-local-variable
to add lines near the end of the file:
// Local Variables:
// my-compiler: g++
// mode: c++
// End:
Note that for the values to take effect, you will need to call
M-x revert-buffer
.
Custom variables are considered unsafe by default. If you try to open a file that contains local variable redefining custom variables, Emacs will ask you for confirmation.
You can declare the variable as secure, thus removing the Emacs prompt for confirmation. You need to specify a predicate that any new value has to verify so that it can be considered safe.
(defcustom my-compiler "gcc" "Some documentation" :safe 'stringp)
In the previous example, if you attempt to set anything else than a string, Emacs will consider it insecure.
Egyedi színek és téma
Colors can be easily customized using the
face
facility.
(set-face-background  'region                 "color-17")
(set-face-foreground  'region                 "white")
(set-face-bold-p      'font-lock-builtin-face t )
You can have let Emacs tell you the name of the face where the point is. Use the
customize-face
function for that. The facility will show you how to set colors, bold, underline, etc.
Emacs in console can handle 256 colors, but you will have to use an appropriate terminal for that. For instance URxvt has support for 256 colors. You can use the
list-colors-display
for a comprehensive list of supported colors. This is highly terminal-dependent.

SyncTeX support
Emacs is a powerful LaTeX editor. This is mostly due to the fact you can adapt or create a LaTeX mode to fit your needs best.
Still, there might be some challenges, like SyncTeX support. First you need to make sure your TeX distribution has it. If you installed TeX Live manually, you may need to install the
synctex
package.
# umask 022 && tlmgr install synctex
SyncTeX support is viewer-dependent. Here we will use Zathura as an example, so the code needs to be adapted if you want to use another PDF viewer.
(defcustom tex-my-viewer "zathura --fork -s -x \"emacsclient --eval '(progn (switch-to-buffer  (file-name-nondirectory \"'\"'\"%{input}\"'\"'\")) (goto-line %{line}))'\"" 
  "PDF Viewer for TeX documents. You may want to fork the viewer
so that it detects when the same document is launched twice, and
persists when Emacs gets closed.

Simple command:

  zathura --fork

We can use

  emacsclient --eval '(progn (switch-to-buffer  (file-name-nondirectory \"%{input}\")) (goto-line %{line}))'

to reverse-search a pdf using SyncTeX. Note that the quotes and double-quotes matter and must be escaped appropriately."
:safe 'stringp)
Here we define our custom variable. If you are using AucTeX or Emacs default LaTeX-mode, you will have to set the viewer accordingly.
Now open a LaTeX source file with Emacs, compile the document, and launch the viewer. Zathura will spawn. If you press
Ctrl+Left click
Emacs should place the point at the corresponding position.
Syntax highlighting for systemd files
You can use
systemd-mode
.
Alternatively, you can simply tell emacs to colour systemd files (services, timer, etc.), by adding this to your init file:
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.service\\'" . conf-unix-mode))
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.timer\\'" . conf-unix-mode))
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.target\\'" . conf-unix-mode))
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.mount\\'" . conf-unix-mode))
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.automount\\'" . conf-unix-mode))
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.slice\\'" . conf-unix-mode))
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.socket\\'" . conf-unix-mode))
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.path\\'" . conf-unix-mode))
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.netdev\\'" . conf-unix-mode))
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.network\\'" . conf-unix-mode))
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.link\\'" . conf-unix-mode))
Clipboard support for emacs-nox
To use the
Xorg
clipboard in emacs-nox,
install
xclip
and add the following function to
~/.emacs
[1]
;; use xclip to copy/paste in emacs-nox
(unless window-system
  (when (getenv "DISPLAY")
    (defun xclip-cut-function (text &optional push)
      (with-temp-buffer
	(insert text)
	(call-process-region (point-min) (point-max) "xclip" nil 0 nil "-i" "-selection" "clipboard")))
    (defun xclip-paste-function()
      (let ((xclip-output (shell-command-to-string "xclip -o -selection clipboard")))
	(unless (string= (car kill-ring) xclip-output)
	  xclip-output )))
    (setq interprogram-cut-function 'xclip-cut-function)
    (setq interprogram-paste-function 'xclip-paste-function)
    ))
Tipp
You may also enable terminal mouse support by adding:
;; xterm mouse support
(require 'mouse)
(xterm-mouse-mode t)

Packages
Emacs's functionality can be extended with third-party packages. The built-in package manager
package.el
is the officially supported way to do this, though there are several other package managers written by members of the Emacs community.
package.el
relies on the variable
package-archives
to find packages. By default, this includes the
Emacs Lisp Package Archive (ELPA)
.
M-x list-packages
will create a buffer listing all the packages your Emacs knows about. The manual (
(info "(emacs) Packages")
) contains much more information.
Third-party package archives can be added. The most widely used of these is
MELPA
.
A number of popular extensions are available as packages in the official repositories, and more still, via the
AUR
. The name of such packages usually have a 'emacs-' prefix (for example,
emacs-lua-mode
), though not always (for example,
auctex
AUR
).
Some packages may require you to make changes to your configuration file in order to activate them so that their features are available during an Emacs session. For example, if you install
auctex
AUR
, you will need to add
(load "auctex.el" nil t t)
(load "preview-latex.el" nil t t)
to your configuration file. Other packages should let you know how to activate them in the commentary section of their source code or in their README.
Troubleshooting
Emacs fails to start with the error message 'Undefined color: "WINDOW_FOREGROUND"'
You need to install either the
mcpp
package or the
gcc
package. The C preprocessor
cpp
is used to preprocess
X resources
by
xrdb
. If a C preprocessor is not installed on the system,
xrdb
silently skips running the C preprocessor and the symbol WINDOW_FOREGROUND is not expanded to a hexadecimal color code.
Emacs systemd service fails to start when using Gccemacs
When using Gccemacs (either the branch
emacs-native-comp
or
pgtk-nativecomp
) and trying to start a systemd service for it, an error message informing that a
.eln
file was not found might be logged:
$ journalctl --user -xb -g eln
emacs[7507]: emacs: ../native-lisp/28.0.50-x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-fc9c33938bf279333039c28064d363e8/lisp-mode-410874a46ab8852855281f021ca61fe7-1738806322de892570d69dfc55b437c2.eln: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
As a workaround,
edit
the
WorkingDirectory
line of
emacs.service
in the
[Service]
section.
emacs.service
[Service]
...
WorkingDirectory=/usr/lib/emacs/28.0.50/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/
...
Megjegyzés
The
WorkingDirectory
parameter has to be defined
before
a possible existing
Restart
parameter.
Színezett kimenet problémák
Alapértelmezés szerint az Emacs shell nyers escape-szekvenciákat jelenít meg, amelyek a színek kinyomtatásához használatosak. Más szóval, furcsa szimbólumokat jelenít meg a kívánt színes kimenet helyett.
A következő beillesztése az
~/.emacs
fájlba javítja a problémát:
(add-hook 'shell-mode-hook 'ansi-color-for-comint-mode-on)
Problems displaying characters in X Windows
If when you start emacs in X windows all the characters in the main window are white boxes with black borders (the ones you see if you try to view characters for which you do not have the correct font installed), you need to install
xorg-fonts-75dpi
and/or
xorg-fonts-100dpi
and restart X windows.
Slow startup
Tipp
To eliminate startup time, users may want to consider running Emacs
#As a systemd unit
.
Slow startup times are often caused by one of two things.
To determine which it might be, run Emacs with:
$ emacs -q
Mistakes, particularly in
/etc/hosts
, will often result in a 5+ second delay when starting Emacs. Refer to '
set the hostname
' in the network configuration guide for information.
You may need to monitor any network packets sent from your computer (using a program like Wireshark) to see if there is any strange behavior.
A simple way to search for the cause is to comment-out (i.e., prefix lines with ';') suspect sections of your
~/.emacs
(or
~/.emacs.d/init.el
) then start Emacs again to see if there is any change. Keep in mind use of "require" and "load" can slow the startup down, especially when used with larger extensions. They should, as a rule, only be used when their target is either: needed once Emacs starts or provides little more than "autoloads" for an extension. Otherwise, use the 'autoload function directly. For example, instead of:
(require 'anything)
you might use:
(autoload 'anything "anything" "Select anything" t)
Cannot open load file: ...
The most common cause of this error is the 'load-path' variable not including the path to the directory within which the extension is located. To solve this, add the appropriate path to the list to be searched prior to attempting to load the extension:
(add-to-list 'load-path "
/path/to/directory/
")
When attempting to use packages for extensions and Emacs has been configured with a prefix other than
/usr
, the load-path will need to be updated. Place the following in
~/.emacs
prior to the instructions provided by the package:
(add-to-list 'load-path "/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp")
If compiling Emacs by hand, keep in mind that the default prefix is
/usr/local
.
Dead-accent keys problem: '<dead-acute> is undefined'
Searching about this bug on Google, we find this link:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-gnu-emacs/2009-05/msg00167.html
explaining the problem. The normal way to use accent keys does not work as expected. Trying to accent a word like 'fiancé' will produce the message above.
A way to solve it is just put the line below on your startup file,
~/.emacs
:
(require 'iso-transl)
And no, it is not a bug, but a feature of new Emacs versions. Reading the subsequent messages about it on the mail list, we found it
[2]
:
It seems that nothing is loaded automatically because there is a choice betwee iso-transl and iso-acc. Both seem to provide an input method with C-x 8 or Alt-<accent> prefix, but what you and I are doing is just pressing a dead key (^, ´, `, ~, ¨) for the accent and then another key to "compose" the accented character. And there is no Alt key used in this! And according to documentation it seems be appropriate for 8-bit encodings, so it should be pretty useless in UTF-8. I reported this bug when it was introduced, but the bug seems to be classified as a feature ... Maybe it's just because the file is auto-loaded though pretty useless.
C-M-% and some other bindings do not work in emacs nox
This is because terminals are more limited than Xorg. Some terminals may handle more bindings than other, though. Two solutions:
either use the graphical version,
or change the binding to a supported one.
Example:
.emacs
(global-set-key (kbd "C-M-y") 'query-replace-regexp)
Emacs hangs
Due to its single-threaded nature, many operations block Emacs. This could happen in a few ways. For example, Emacs may be waiting for input from you (e.g. you have opened the minibuffer in one frame but are trying to work in another). Alternatively, Emacs could be running code that simply takes a while to finish. Or perhaps you have run across a bug. There are several ways of trying to unblock Emacs without killing the Emacs process.
Try pressing
C-g
. Depending on what Emacs is doing, you may need to press it multiple times.
Try pressing
ESC ESC ESC
.
From another terminal, run
killall -SIGUSR2 emacs
Emacs-nox output gets messy
When working in a terminal, the color, indentation, or anything related to the output might become crazy. This is (probably?) because Emacs was sent a special character at some point which may conflict with the current terminal.
If this happens you can do
M-x redraw-display
, which will redraw the terminal's display. If this problem happens frequently, you might want to bind the command to a key, e.g. by putting something like:
(global-set-key (kbd "<f7>") 'redraw-display)
in your
.emacs
file.
Graphical Emacs does not suffer from this issue.
Weird escaped numbers (utf-8) displaying in emacs terminal
Export these values in your
.bashrc
or
.zshrc
:
$ ~/.bashrc or ~/.zshrc
export LANG\='en_US.UTF-8'
export LC_ALL\="en_US.UTF-8"
export TERM\=xterm-256color
It can be a source of errors since in Linux distributions the correct values use lowercase utf (e.g.
en_US.utf-8
)
To view all available locales use
locale -a
.
Shift + Arrow keys not working in emacs within tmux
Enable xterm-keys in your
tmux
configuration:
~/.tmux.conf
setw -g xterm-keys on
Because this will break other key combinations, put the following in your emacs config.
~/.emacs
(defadvice terminal-init-screen
  ;; The advice is named `tmux', and is run before `terminal-init-screen' runs.
  (before tmux activate)
  ;; Docstring. This describes the advice and is made available inside emacs;
  ;; for example when doing C-h f terminal-init-screen RET
  "Apply xterm keymap, allowing use of keys passed through tmux."
  ;; This is the elisp code that is run before `terminal-init-screen'.
  (if (getenv "TMUX")
    (let ((map (copy-keymap xterm-function-map)))
    (set-keymap-parent map (keymap-parent input-decode-map))
(set-keymap-parent input-decode-map map))))
See
tmux FAQ
for details.
Improper window resizing in KDE
KDE users may observe that the Emacs window does not resize properly, but rather, the resized portion is transparent and mouse clicks are sent to the underlying window. To correct this behavior, change KDE's GTK3 theme to something other than oxygen-gtk. For instance, use the Emacs theme which is included with
gtk3
.
To force Emacs to maximize completely in KDE, click the Emacs icon in the title bar, and select
More Actions > Special Window Settings
. Then in the
Size & Position
tab, select
Obey geometry restrictions
, choose
Force

Alternative GNU Emacs distributions
An Emacs "distro" is a collection of emacs packages and customizations.  They are are easier to install and use than customizing emacs on your own is (but less custom to you).
Spacemacs
- A community-driven Emacs distribution - The best editor is neither Emacs nor Vim, it's Emacs *and* Vim!
Doom Emacs
- An Emacs framework for the stubborn martian hacker
Witchmacs
- The cutest Emacs distribution
Yukimacs
- A GNU/Emacs config built from the ground up (no Spacemacs or Doom Emacs), heavily inspired by Uncle Dave’s Emacs and Witchmacs.
