I had to change the default Emacs controls so ^W and ^U and such do things that actually make sense. And now I can at least use Emacs for toy languages like Lisp, if not for actual work

Sublime is kinda shitty in my opinion. It's fairly powerful but it turns out to be like a retarded vim with a bunch of chrome on the UI, slowing the whole thing down. It's not terrible if you fear vim and want something a little more than what other editors will do for you, but I'd go with e in that case.

Swordfish gloves are a reward that can be purchased with 200 tokens from the Fist of Guthix activity and cannot be bought from the Grand Exchange. They require a Fishing level of 65 to wear (this can not be achieved by using boosts, e.g. Admiral pie). When worn, the gloves grant an additional 100 Fishing experience for every swordfish caught. This extra experience boost lasts until 1,000 Swordfish have been caught, after which they crumble to dust. To check how many charges players have left, right click in the equipment screen and select "inspect". Players can only buy one pair of gloves until that one had been destroyed. Trying to buy two pairs at once will result in buying only one, and receiving a notification.
Contrary to popular belief, these gloves DO NOT make you catch swordfish all the time. They have the same catch ratio depending on your Fishing level.
The experience gained from this item is doubled from using a volatile clay harpoon(or Sacred clay harpoon) from the Stealing Creation activity. With both swordfish gloves, and a volatile or sacred harpoon equipped, a player receives 400xp per swordfish caught with the Morphic Tool, and 410exp with the Volatile tool. It is recommended to use Morphic as the Volatile is less predictable and does not significantly increase the exp rate economically.
Note: If you catch a tuna, they do NOT lose a charge.
Note: Although called swordfish gloves, they cannot be used to pick belladonna plants, which require a pair of gloves to be worn to pick.
Note: If you are member and wearing swordfish gloves, it will NOT improve your chances of catching a Big swordfish!

Standardization?Edit
I think the way the articles for the fish of guthix skill gloves should have some more of standardization, or at least some sort of standardization for specific kind of the gloves. Also the line "= 21,200 tokens / 8" makes no sense, I'm stupid. 71.35.176.32 22:48, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
Clay harpoonEdit
Has anyone given a try to combining of these gloves with Sacred clay harpoon and what was the effect? Does the experience bonuses from these two stack to each other? Golduin 07:38, 19 December 2008 (UTC)
"The extra xp gained while using it is not combined with the double xp you get from gloves from Fist of Guthix. You only get the same xp as you would by using the gloves and a regular harpoon. " Have not notice this from clay harpoon article Golduin 07:39, 19 December 2008 (UTC)
Catherby fishing shop Edit
The article says these are available in the Catherby fishing shop, but I don't see them there Liberator1 20:38, 20 January 2009 (UTC)

Where can you fish with the swordfish gloves Edit
hey I went to the island of Brimhaven on the north-east in the fishing spot and i clicked on harpoon and it said that i had to be on a members world. Where do I fish with the swordfish gloves
You don't actually fish with the swordfish gloves, you still have to use a harpoon. I don't know why it's under techniques, that's a big misunderstanding that ought to be fixed by Jagex soon. Plus, sign all your posts on talk pages, please. 70.231.247.212 23:07, September 7, 2010 (UTC)

My verdict so far – I can’t stand that environment. SLIME is fragile, and Emacs is a prehistoric editor. As for Practical Common Lisp, it’s a decent intro, but the code examples bored me to tears. I really don’t want to write yet another MP3 song database…
More research reveals that there is a rather overwhelming collection of possible starting points. One of the best collections of references to Lisp environments and Lisp books is a thread on reddit – I really should’ve looked there sooner.
So the setup I ended up with for now? I stuck with SBCL, the editor is good old trusty TextMate, and for a starting set of problems to cut my teeth on, I went with Project Euler. (PCL left me with a good enough grasp of Lisp that I could at least start on problem one…)
>>29
You'll miss out on that Paredit and SLIME - the productivity is pretty high once you're used to them, but good luck using whatever you prefer more.

I must warn you that TextMate is a poor choice for Lisp. The bracket matching is decent (though a lot dumber than paredit) but the goal is to have editor features like that in the REPL, because that's where the action happens. That's what SLIME gives you. Syntax highlighting, indentation, everything.
TextMate is very pretty and it has great defaults... for the C family. The farther you stray from that, the less useful it gets. Try pasting correctly indented Python code some time. Wink. Nudge. Grin.
The problem with Emacs is not that it lacks functionality. It's just that the good parts are not the default, so you have to learn to configure it to clean up some of the drool. If you had a sane configuration as a starting point, you'd be amazed at how similar it behaves to TextMate (unless you knew TextMate was sort of based on it). Later I will troll everyone by posting part of my .emacs file so they can pick over all the cruft and argue about how wrong it is.
[1]: E, Redcar, and Sublime Text are essentially reimplementations of TextMate for other platforms.

There is a great need for a Lisp editor that would work out of box, without requiring user to write pages of code.
And I still remember time, when Emacs had no font anti-aliasing or unicode support. Today you have to explicitly enable unicode by executing (set-language-environment "UTF-8")
(setq locale-coding-system 'utf-8)
(set-terminal-coding-system 'utf-8)
(set-keyboard-coding-system 'utf-8)
(set-selection-coding-system 'utf-8)
(prefer-coding-system 'utf-8)
(setq slime-net-coding-system 'utf-8-unix)
That is outrageous! Steve Jobs wouldn't approve.
And to set up a color scheme (what colors emacs uses for text and background) I have to run:

Peopel tend to customize their Emacs to fit their tastes and needs. I do know that in my case the code in my .emacs is quite different, yet there's still a lot of fluff in it, but it's all fluff I added because I wanted some specific feature or I wanted to change how something behaved. Either you get an editor which does stuff mostly fine, but you don't agree with how it does everything, or you have an editor which you can customize however you want, but eventually it does everything you want it to do.

It would still be FABULOUS if important stuff like Slime got official support and included by default
>>38
I would also love if SBCL was included by default, and deeply integrated with environment, so I dont even have to think about it as a separate process. And a modern GUI with intellisense, tabs, packages/variables/functions/documentation browsers would be nice too. Some GUI creation support wont be superfluous either - I want my proggies to have modern interface and single click deploy.
>>39-40
Just make some Lisp-in-a-box-like Emacs+SLIME+SBCL+Paredit+... with a fancy GUI for customizing it all if you want to cater to that specific crowd. It's kind of true that you have to spend an hour or two tweaking to get everything like you'd want it, but I never really met anyone that wanted the exact same features as me.

Ever seen Java developers? They all want exactly netbeans IDE. If you offer them your Emacs (which, BTW, has Java-mode), they will sodomize you with a cactus.

Original CL ran on Lisp-Machines, that had everything out of the box, including GUI toolkit...
It's kind of hard to appreciate the differences (between Zmacs and Emacs) from reading a description. It's even hard to appreciate it from using Zmacs. Where the light dawns is when you've been using Zmacs for a while and go back to using plain old Emacs.
What, you mean there's no keystroke to bring up a list of every change I've made in every file on the box? What, you mean there's code on the box whose source I can't pop up with a keystroke? What, you mean I have to run some sort of tags program on source files before I can find definitions? What, you mean there's code on the box that isn't cross-referenced? What, you mean there's running code on the box whose source I can't step into? What, you mean I can't insert references to objects on the screen into my code just by clicking the screen objects?
Zmacs is tightly integrated with Genera, and it's Lisp all the way down to the microcode. Emacs is great, don't get me wrong, but it's at a different remove from the system.

Easy to implement -- although you might want to consider an actual revision system.
What, you mean there's code on the box whose source I can't pop up with a keystroke?
Feasible.

Feasible.

Feasible.

Fuck off. No, seriously, fuck off and die. A proper optimizing JIT will destroy the debugging information required to step into any code at any time. Oh sure, you can keep that info around all the time, but that's a bit USELESS.

I do agree that OpenGenera is pretty great, and Emacs+SLIME is close, but still not as decent in some ways (although there are some features that were not on Genera by default). >>49 Fuck off.

I love being able to step into/analyze other people's code. Usually it's not too bad with some Lisp implementations where you can just build stuff yourself and thus you'll be able to debug anything. Obviously this has some slight speed penalty.

What I'm saying is that by default everything should run with debugging disabled so the JIT can just throw away useless stuff (like locals) and do things out-of-order. Sure, you can start the root process with debugging enabled if you want a 4x systemwide slowdown just so you can step into the TCP stack whenever you penis itches, but normal people don't want that.
