Emacs Code

I confess, I'm an avid emacs user. Here are some modifications to my .emacs file. I will occasionally post new functions as I stumble upon them or write them.

Copy Line and Prepend Buffer Name
Adapted from a function written by Miles Bader 
;; Copies line and appends buffer name to the front of it
;; used in checking the Charniak/Gomez parsers

;; add this to your .emacs file 

(defun copy-line-with-filename (n)
    "Copy N lines at point to the kill-ring, and prepends with buffer-name."
    (interactive "p")
    (kill-ring-save (line-beginning-position) (line-beginning-position (1+ n)))
    (kill-append (concat (buffer-name) ": ") '1))


(global-set-key "\C-ck" 'copy-line-with-filename)
Word Count Buffer
Requires a unix system with wc in the path 
(defun word-count nil "Count words in buffer" 
   (interactive)
   (shell-command-on-region (point-min) (point-max) "wc -w"))
