I usually use M-x load-file.  But be aware that some initialization is only done the first time through.  Things like libraries that set their defaults when loaded, but don&#39;t get reloaded the second time through.  Its always a good idea to start up emacs from scratch as a final check that everything works ok. 

In the `*scratch*` buffer, type:

    (load-file user-init-file)

Then press `C-x C-e` to evaluate the expression.

M-x load-file and then choose the .emacs file should also work

M-x load-file ~/.emacs

eval-buffer when the .emacs file is opened

eval-region when you want apply selected lines

C-x C-e evaluates the preceding expression


    M-x load-file ENTER
    ~/.emacs
    ENTER
([source][1])

Open the .emacs file, select its contents and hit C-x,C-e

you can use `C-x C-e` which will evaluate an s-expression. Make sure the cursor is at the last parenthesis of the elisp code.

Sometime I see many application such as msn, windows media player etc that are single instance applications (when user executes while application is running a new application instance will not created).

In C#, I use `Mutex` class for this but I don&#39;t know how to do this in Java.

Is there any substantial difference between those two terms?. I understand that JDK stands for Java Development Kit that is a subset of SDK (Software Development Kit). But specifying Java SDK, it should mean the same as JDK.

I tried looking for the .emacs file for my Windows installation for Emacs, but I could not find it. Does it have the same filename under Windows as in Unix?

Do I have to create it myself? If so, under what specific directory does it go?


Where can I find my .emacs file for Emacs running on Windows?

If you launch Emacs using the `-nw` flag to force a console session (rather than an X session if you have X windows running), how do you get to the menu?

There are some items held in the menus that are infrequently-enough used on my part that I don&#39;t recall the escape or control sequence to do them.




How do I get to the menu in Emacs in console mode?

I use emacs for viewing and editing code and other text files. I wanted to know if there is a way to search forward or backward for text which is marked in the current buffer. Similar to what I can do in notepad or wordpad. As in can I mark some text in the buffer and do a C-s or C-r and be able to search with the marked text without actually typing in the whole search text? 

Thank you,

Rohit

In vi[m] there is the [`!` command which lets me pipe text][1] through a shell command -- like sort or indent -- and get the filtered text back into the buffer. Is there an equivalent in emacs?

In my Java app I need to get some files and directories.

This is the program structure:

    ./main.java
    ./package1/guiclass.java
    ./package1/resources/resourcesloader.java
    ./package1/resources/repository/modules/   -&gt; this is the dir I need to get
    ./package1/resources/repository/SSL-Key/cert.jks    -&gt; this is the file I need to get

`guiclass` loads the resourcesloader class which will load my resources (directory and file).

As to the file, I tried

    resourcesloader.class.getClass().getResource(&quot;repository/SSL-Key/cert.jks&quot;).toString()

in order to get the real path, but this way does not work.

I have no idea which path to use for the directory.

Having real trouble using my localhost to test sites. It runs extremely slowly! Sometimes it takes up to a minute to load a page. I&#39;m using Firefox and the sites I&#39;m testing run fine on other developers in my office&#39;s local machines / on the production server.

I&#39;ve gone through the normal things :-

1. Disabled IPv6
2. Not running in debug mode
3. Put the site in the highest app pool (High Isolated) on IIS 6.
4. Taking of firewalls etc.

The problem only seems to occur when hitting pages which contain some form of .net code in the code-behind.

Appreciate that this a little bit of a vague topic / stab in the dark but would appreciate any sort of advice - it&#39;s horrible waiting a minute each refresh to try out a change!

Cheers, Sean.

I wanna create some loading dots, like this:

At 0000 miliseconds the span content is: `.`

At 0100 miliseconds the span content is: `..`

At 0200 miliseconds the span content is: `...`

In a loop.

What is the best / easiest way to make it?

When loading a widget if it cannot find a resource or something it says Problem Loading Widget. That&#39;s all! Amazing! This message remains on the home screen and does not even say which widget it had trouble loading. 

I figured it out by trial and error but I would like to know if there are any places to find the error message when this occurs. Where will Android say what problem it had loading the widget or even which widget it failed to load?

I am just trying to adapt some of my applications for HoneyComb.

The issue iI am facing is the destruction of my activity on orientation change (landscape/portrait)

When I was using a classic activity, I wrote in the manifest:
&lt;activity android:name=&quot;MainActivity&quot; android:configChanges=&quot;keyboardHidden|orientation&quot;&gt;

But now, all these lines aren&#39;t working anymore!

Is there a workaround for that?

My code:

		&lt;activity android:name=&quot;.TwitterActivity&quot; android:label=&quot;@string/app_name&quot;
			android:configChanges=&quot;keyboardHidden|orientation&quot; /&gt;

		&lt;activity android:name=&quot;.TwitterActivity$AppListFragment&quot;
		android:configChanges=&quot;keyboardHidden|orientation&quot;  /&gt;

android:configChanges=&quot;orientation&quot; does not work with fragments

I&#39;m using `nginx` on OS X 10.8. Freshly installed `nginx` but can&#39;t find a way to restart nginx except `kill nginx_pid` say `kill 64116`. Wondering if there are better ways to restart `nginx`.

Found some methods on Google and SO but didn&#39;t work:

    nginx -s restart

    sudo fuser -k 80/tcp ; sudo /etc/init.d/nginx restart

The error message for `nginx -s restart` is 


    nginx: [error] open() &quot;/usr/local/var/run/nginx.pid&quot; failed (2: No such file or directory)

Sometimes also get this error msg:

    nginx: invalid option: &quot;-s restart&quot;

I am starting a service from my main Android activity as follows:

    final Context context = base.getApplicationContext();
    final Intent intent = new Intent(context, MyService.class);
    startService(intent);

When I close the activity page by swiping it out from the recent apps list, the service stops running and restarts after some time. I can&#39;t use persistent services with notifications because of my app requirements. How can I make the service NOT restart or shutdown and just keep on running on app exit?
