About this film

In this video I present an implementation of append-to-buffer . This is an Emacs function for accumulating text (one of many). I combine it with the power of a keyboard macro, window switching, and the built-in shell prompt ( shell ), to ultimately run a Bash script in a loop—a real productivity boost. Please note that the lag I experience while executing the macro is due to my underpowered hardware and the conditions I am recording in. My sincere apologies! Though not relevant to the demo, here is my Emacs configuration file: protesilaos.com/emacs/dotemacs .
