Trying eev with a sexp (2024, subtitles)

The main page about this video is here.
Its subtitles in Lua are here.
The rest of this page contains a conversion of the subtitles in Lua
to a slightly more readable format.


0:00 Hi! My name is Eduardo Ochs.
0:02 I'm the author of an Emacs package
0:04 called eev, that apparently makes
0:08 very little sense to people in developed
0:09 countries, but Brazilians usually
0:12 understand it very quickly...

0:14 anyway, the documentation and the
0:17 tutorials of eev are full of "try it"s,
0:20 and the idea is that people are going to
0:22 learn eev by trying the "try it"s...
0:24 and here is how to try eev very quickly.

0:27 The details about this presentation
0:30 are in this link here,
0:33 and I'm going to start by discussing
0:36 this part of my homepage here...

0:39 so, this is my homepage, and it has a
0:43 section about eev that is a bit below the
0:46 half of the homepage, and it has this
0:49 link: "trying eev with a sexp",
0:52 that goes to this page...

0:54 and the idea is that you just have to
1:00 mark this region here, copy it with
1:03 contrl-C, then you start an Emacs...

1:09 by the way, most systems can install either
1:13 a Graphical Emacs, also called a GUI Emacs,
1:17 and a Terminal Emacs...
1:19 the Terminal Emacs is much harder to use,
1:21 so please use the graphical Emacs.

1:23 Here is a Graphical Emacs. I'm going to
1:26 maximize its window, and we have to go
1:30 to a read-write buffer... my suggestion
1:32 is to click here, on "Buffers",
1:35 and select "*scratch*"...

1:37 then we paste this thing here
1:39 to this buffer using either
1:43 the paste button here,
1:47 or the "Paste (C-y)" here
1:49 in the edit menu... and now we go
1:52 to this position here, after
1:55 the last parenthesis and we type
1:59 ctrl-e ctrl-x ctrl-e...

2:01 and it takes a few seconds,
2:08 and it installs eev, and it goes
2:12 to the main tutorial...

2:14 and now if you execute the
2:18 instructions in the sections 2 and 3
2:20 three you're going to learn a lot
2:24 about the first half of eev, that is
2:27 elisp hyperlinks, and if you go
2:30 to the section 6... let me go there,
2:37 and let me use a smaller font here...

2:40 then you can learn a lot about
2:44 the part of eev that is useful to
2:47 most people, that is how to control
2:49 external programs [with eepitch]...

2:51 the tutorial explains everything,
2:54 and then tells people to run
2:56 this example here, that just creates
2:58 a target buffer running a shell...

3:01 and then we can type f8 and send
3:04 some commands to that target...
3:07 and then it has some other examples here,

3:10 including an example that creates
3:12 two different targets and alternates
3:16 between these two targets...

3:20 And that's it! That's how to try eev
3:22 in just a few minutes.

3:27 And here is the the page that
3:30 I was showing before... it has a section
3:31 about how to uninstall eev...
3:35 for most people just turning off eev-mode
3:41 is enough, this is explained here... but
3:46 a few people would prefer to uninstall eev.
3:51 Everything is explained here.

3:53 So, that's it! Bye!
