Request to have Emacs mode as well

[kaushalmodi]

Hello,

I see that the judge0 IDE has Vim mode. Can we also please have an Emacs mode?

Ref: nim-lang/Nim#11599 (comment)

I will add that in the near future: #27 (comment)

Hey @kaushalmodi,

I have added Vim and Emacs support on https://ide.judge0.com. Please check it out let me know does it work for you as expected.

If you are not sure if Judge0 IDE behaves as expected, please consult with https://editor.bitwiser.in. I am using their plugin for both vim and emacs.

Thanks!

Herman

The Ctrl+N (C-n) binding in Emacs should act like down arrow. But on Firefox, the Ctrl+N is stolen by the browser (Firefox) to open a new window.

The Ctrl+P (C-p) binding to act like up arrow works fine though (the browser is not stealing that binding to open the print dialog (as expected)).

Thanks for working on this.

By the way, I use Nim and was surprised to see Nim not available on that link (so I opened this other issue: #32 ). And the Emacs binding setting is not available on https://nim.ide.judge0.com/.

Thanks for your fast review @kaushalmodi!

I will consider this feature as working because C-n cannot be cached by JavaScript.

I separated Nim from Judge0 IDE because Nim isn't currently in Judge0 API. At first Nim was added as experimental language to feature Judge0 but at the same time give Nim community something useful. I will think about adding Nim to Judge0 IDE (and API) and will let you know when that happens.

I tried the Emacs mode more today with basic stuff but none of these bindings work:

• C-x h (Ctrl+X, release, press H) : select all
• C-y - Paste
• C-w - Cut (this kills the tab!!)

Hey @kaushalmodi,

I was able to reproduce this but it seems to me that monaco-emacs plugin that I use doesn't work as expected.

Can you please open an issue there?
