1. I've htmlized the files (Thanks to Hrvoje Niksic for the htmlize package).
2. Some of them consist of more than one file, so bundling them together in one file is more convinient for downloading.

The files are zipped with infozips zip .

To get back after looking at a dotfile, just select the local dotfiles link on the menue and you will be teleported back to the place where you left this page.

Enjoy !

Notes from the author: This .emacs provides a Win32 Perl oriented configuration for the Emacs v20.5.1 code editor. It can run a perl script you are editing by the press of a button (F8) or via the ActiveState debugger if you have it (F9) plus heaps of other cool stuff. You will need the latest version of Emacs though: Win32 Emacs download	Author: Steve Ackermann

	Notes: Steve published this file on dotfiles.com and I've asked him to publish it here again. Although he knows this site (I identified parts of my own .emacs file by the comments) he didn't answer during the last month. Nevertheless, seeing that he uses parts of my .emacs, I think it's ok to publish it without his expressed permission.

Notes from the author: This has a bunch of code that is needed for Allegro Common lisp - to be able to run it within emacs is pretty nifty IMHO. It also has a bunch of other features which are good to use and I think should be standard.	Author: David Allen

Notes from the author: An emacs config designed for C/C++ programming. Supports: C/C++ highlighting, indenting and general feeling. QT and tmake support ( QT highlighting and extra keywords and tmake projects ) Several completion methods: Abbrev, recencly used words and hippie expandability Mouse wheel support. Keyboard improvements: Save, load, compile, kill, indent etc.. Store backup files in a .backups directory instead of in the same dir as the file. Autoinserting of known filetypes( C/C++ and tmake templates ) Timestamping of files. Line & column number mode Pc selection mode ( Shift + arrow keys to select, shift/ctrl insert delete) Better compilation mode. ( smaller window and auto save etc.. ) Desktop support. ( Allows saving of all files including their cursor pos ) and then some. And much more in this version.	Author: Jan Borsodi
	The files: a feature list JanBorsodi.emacs Some helper files loaded by the emacs dotfile: .emacs-d-classes .emacs-d-colors .emacs-d-custom .emacs-d-keys .emacs-d-personal .emacs-d-vars .gnus The zip file containing all these and an additional directory with autoinsert templates for c/c++ programming: JanBorsodi.zip A zip file with all these one file add-ons Jan is using: all the single file packages (280KB) also avialable here: psgml-mode 1.2.1 (256KB) Jan uses JDE which requires three more packages which are not included in the standard distribution of emacs. These entries are linked to their home pages because they change frequently: The latest JDE files, Semantic and Speedbar,
	Notes: Jan has updated the files and added a lot of nice features. I strongly recommend this dotfile to all people programming c/c++. The zip files include some companion files of the .emacs. They are here to give you the possibility to get the complete environment.

Notes from the author: Included in this .emacs are a couple of useful functions apart from simple key rebindings: Support for wheel mice (mouse buttons 4 & 5 under X), to scroll windows, do really fast undo/redo, etc... Buffer switch fix. The default completion list includes the name of the buffer you're in. This is very annoying if you're editing prog.c, and prog.h since you have to type either c, or h to switch between these files. This fix removes the current buffer name from the completion list. Microsoft style highlighting. Hold down shift and move the cursor around to define a region. Defining a region then pasting text (via emacs kill ring, or X cut buffer) will replace the region, among other functions. Each of these is documented in the file itself.	Author: Steve Dodd

Notes from the author: It does too much to list everything, but it is set up for programming (C/C++/elisp primarily), TeX-ing, HTML-ing, remote file editing (even through the company firewall), numerous personal tweaks. I use a large number of packages that do not come with emacs, but I try to provide a pointer to these extra packages whenever they are used.	Author: Elijah Daniel
	The files: ElijahDaniel.emacs ElijahDaniel.zip

Notes from the author: I've had this emacs file for about 6 years. First it was all unix, then unix and NT, now mostly NT (but Linux soon to come). The shell is cygnus bash now. Nothing special has been done. All of the entries are pretty much what each packages' instructions say to do. I don't pretend to know lisp so the coding will look amatureish.	Author: Gary Fong
	The files: GaryFong.emacs GaryFong.zip
	Notes: Gary has provided his up-to-date .emacs. The differences to the one available at dotfiles.com are mostly needed to get the cygnus tools up and running with emacs.

Notes from the author: This is my personal .emacs, with lots of self-penned and stolen tidbits to make life in the editor more pleasant for a German who hacks CDG files. It also tries to cater to both XEmacs and FSF emacs, but it's a losing battle.	Author: Kilian A. Foth
	The files: KilianAFoth.emacs KilianAFoth.zip
	Notes: Kilians dotfile seems to be an Unix XEmacs dotfile, but he has tried to isolate the XEmacs specific parts. There are a lot of defuns to make programming (and a lot more) easier which don't depend on a specific emacs flavour (it's just elisp :) ). One more file to extract things for the snippet factory planned long time ago :))

Notes from the author: This .emacs initialization file has evolved over many months, and you'll often see code or even comments that I stole from other sample .emacs files, dejanews posts, lisp files, or the GNU pages. I am convinced that Emacs can be made to do anything I will ever need. ( or any other programmer for that matter ) If you think Emacs is just an editor, you don't yet understand what Emacs is all about. At one time, I used to get caught up in the Emacs vs. VI thing, then decided to really learn Emacs. Though it edits, it is a total coding environment, fully extensible and able to do practically anything, include amusing diversions we all need after banging out a few thousand lines of code. If you see anything in this file that I can improve on, please let me know. Learning Emacs is a journey that doesn't end.	Author: Dave Gallucci
	The files: DaveGallucci.emacs DaveGallucci.zip
	Notes: This one is not the same than the one on Geoff Voelkers NT-emacs FAQ, Dave contributed a more recent version. Beside other things, it contains a really helpful tags-return defun to return from finding a tag in etagged sources.

Notes from the author: This is my current GNU emacs configuration. Put both files in the .zip in your home directory. It features colors I like, keybindings I'm used to (home/end go to home/end of line), and some nifty features. Note: this one is mostly for people running emacs under X. My own .emacs.html covers pretty much everything a programmer would want--highlighting, C mode setup, etc. Note that it's not perfect yet, as there are a few lexical symbols in the cc-mode configuration that aren't handled properly IMO. The main attraction of the file I provide is that it activates many features turned off by default in emacs 20.3 that turn emacs in a truly powerful programmer's editor.

Notes from the author: Well, here is the one. It contains a nasty hack for XEmacs to work with Russian Xkb map, some SGML/HTML definitions, gnus defaults to read Russian USENET, some defuns to provide my own toolbar icons.

Notes from the author: This tries to be the only startup file you will need for any emacs. It should also make it easy for you to learn how to customize emacs. You should also be able to tweak XEmacs without breaking GNU Emacs, and other combinations, such as a .emacs common to linux & windows. This also tries to be fast thru precompiling. You may wish to trim these files for speed, but you should redistribute with nothing missing.	Author: Bruce Ingalls

Notes from the author: It strikes me there's enough clutter in my .emacs that someone, somewhere is likely to find some part of it useful. All the packages that are referenced have URLs for where I got them from, if they aren't standard issue packages. It's been shamelessly hacked together from seperate sources over a period of about 4 years. Most stuff that isn't mine is credited. All this is for GNU emacs.	Author: David Jolley

Notes from the author: My site-lisp directory (which contains all the extra bits and pieces I've collected over the years) is currently 18.5Mb in size, so I'm afraid it won't all fit! This is what has stopped me contributing my .emacs in the past - it depends on so many other snippets that have been downloaded from the WWW or from gnu.emacs.sources over the years. I've tried to collect together some of the more useful things that don't depend on external bits and pieces though, and contribute that. And here it is, the parts of my .emacs that don't depend on everything else.	Author: Jason Rumney

Notes from the author: This is the one .emacs I use for several different platforms, including freebsd, linux, NT/9x, etc. It has some interesting tweaks like a good Ctrl-TAB buffer-switcher, a common way to quit a frame in a gui context (regardless of whether it's the parent or child frame), and lots of little customizations that are commented, including a big C++ section. Looks to a file called .emacs_local (if it exists) to provide for local customizations per machine. Borrows from various sources (including files on dotfiles.com), and features some custom emacs-lisp code of my own. Check it out!	Author: Benjamin Rutt
