Hello there, For what it matters, vim and emacs are installed by default with FEL. http://spins.fedoraproject.org/fel/ I'm looking for contributors who can help me improve user experience (on fedora) with emacs for hardware design. Thereby I would appreciate if you can help me maintain the following packages which will be set default for FEL Livedvd 13: * spice-mode https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-electronic-lab/ticket/75 * irsim-mode (draft spec file provided) https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-electronic-lab/ticket/50 I'll do the package reviews, if someone steps in. Also, I'm looking for someone who can communicate directly with upstream to update both * vhdl-mode * verilog-mode coming with upstream sources. This ticket tracks the progress with upstream : https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-electronic-lab/ticket/76. Please do fill it if progress is made. This blog post explains how one can use emacs in a production environment for hardware design. I'm hoping that the above tasks can further improve user experience out of the box. http://chitlesh.wordpress.com/2009/05/27/fel-emacs-verilog-mode-dinotrace/ Kind regards, Chitlesh -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
