Interpretation of the game Elite using Emacs. Originally inspired by Ian Bell's Text Elite, C implementation of Elite trading system.
See my blog post: sami.salkosuo.net/elite-for-emacs.
If you know Emacs then instructions in elite-for-emacs-V1/README and elite-for-emacs-V2/elite-for-emacs.el make sense and you can try and play Elite for EMACS.
It's easy to try out Elite for Emacs (V1) using Docker and browser.
- Pull Docker image:
- docker pull kazhar/elite-for-emacs
- Run container:
- docker run -d -p 6901:6901 kazhar/elite-for-emacs
- Access container, and Elite for Emacs, using your browser:
- http://localhost:6901/?password=vncpassword
- Assumes container runs on localhost. If not, change localhost to correct address.
Note that if you save commander, it is saved in the container. If you stop the container, all saves are lost. Container is stopped if you exit Emacs using C-x C-c.
I have currently no plans to continue working with this and I make the code available for historic reasons and in the hope that some one finds even a small amount of enjoyment out of Elite for EMACS.
