Whenever I try to edit an existing file with spacemacs, I get "buffer is read-only". How do I give spacemacs the permission to edit any buffer on a Mac?
Press SPC SPC, type read-only-mode and select/call it. This will toggle the "read-only" status of the current buffer.
Alternatively, use shortcut SPC b w.
You can also try the following shortcut:
C-x C-q runs the command read-only-mode

How do I set a database connection's password to use an environment variable. I cannot add these to the kettle.properties file (security policy). When I click control-space on OSX, nothing happens. If I try and paste the string ${PASSWORD} directly into the password field, it does not allow it, due to the presumably non-alphanumeric '$' char.
The other fields as shown below work fine.
The EDIT Connection dialog below shows the field in red, which is what I want to achieve logically.
Using PDI Community 8.2, on Mac OSX Mojave.
I found one solution. Instead of creating the DB connection in Table Input Step with Edit or New, I used the Wizard option, which allowed me to paste ${SOURCE_DB_PASSWORD} variable into the password field.
The characters were obfuscated, so it's impossible to tell if you have the correct value, but it worked.
CTRL+V doesn’t work, you need to right-click and choose paste.
You can encrypt the password and save it on kettle.properties, in spoon directory execute:
Encr.bat -kettle yourpassword
Paste the full result with "Encrypted" in the properties file, restart spoon and test the connection.
In OSX, I believe you need to use the shortcut shift + cmd + space to access the environment variables.
You might need to use the 'get variables'-step to define the variables from kettle.properties.
Just type ${Variable_Name} as you are defining for other environment variable. If open your .ktr file in Notepad++ you can see the value is your Variable_Name instead of Encrypted password. It worked for me :)

I'm trying to do a project-wide find/replace in Spacemacs. I tried this:
SPC s a p
Type the text I want to replace.
C-c C-e
At this point Spacemacs tells me text is read-only. What am I missing to be able to preform the edit operation?
Use SPC p R to use projectile-replace which runs interactive query-replace on all files in the project.
How do you auto-indent your code in the Atom editor? In other editors you can usually select some code and auto-indent it.
Is there a keyboard shortcut as well?
I found the option in the menu, under Edit > Lines > Auto Indent. It doesn't seem to have a default keymap bound.
You could try to add a key mapping (Atom > Open Your Keymap [on Windows: File > Settings > Keybindings > "your keymap file"]) like this one:
'atom-text-editor':
'cmd-alt-l': 'editor:auto-indent'
It worked for me :)
For Windows:
'atom-text-editor':
'ctrl-alt-l': 'editor:auto-indent'
The accepted answer works, but you have to do a "Select All" first -- every time -- and I'm way too lazy for that.
And it turns out, it's not super trivial -- I figured I'd post this here in an attempt to save like-minded individuals the 30 minutes it takes to track all this down. -- Also note: this approach restores the original selection when it's done (and it happens so fast, you don't even notice the selection was ever changed).
1.) First, add a custom command to your init script (File->Open Your Init Script, then paste this at the bottom):
atom.commands.add 'atom-text-editor', 'custom:reformat', ->
editor = atom.workspace.getActiveTextEditor();
oldRanges = editor.getSelectedBufferRanges();
editor.selectAll();
atom.commands.dispatch(atom.views.getView(editor), 'editor:auto-indent')
editor.setSelectedBufferRanges(oldRanges);
2.) Bind "custom:reformat" to a key (File->Open Your Keymap, then paste this at the bottom):
'atom-text-editor':
'ctrl-alt-d': 'custom:reformat'
3.) Restart Atom (the init.coffee script only runs when atom is first launched).
Package auto-indent exists to apply auto-indent to entire file with this shortcuts :
ctrl+shift+i
or
cmd+shift+i
Package url : https://atom.io/packages/auto-indent
I prefer using atom-beautify, CTRL+ALT+B (in linux, may be in windows also) handles better al kind of formats and it is also customizable per file format.
more details here: https://atom.io/packages/atom-beautify
You can just quickly open up the command palette and do it there
Cmd + Shift + p and search for Editor: Auto Indent:
This works for me:
'atom-workspace atom-text-editor':
'ctrl-alt-a': 'editor:auto-indent'
You have to select all with ctrl-a first.
This is the best help that I found:
https://atom.io/packages/atom-beautify
This package can be installed in Atom and then CTRL+ALT+B solve the problem.
On Linux
(tested in Ununtu KDE)
There is the option in the menu, under Edit > Lines > Auto Indent or press Cmd + Shift + p, search for Editor: Auto Indent by entering just "ai"
Note: In KDE ctrl-alt-l is already globally set for "lock screen" so better use ctrl-alt-i instead.
You can add a key mapping in Atom:
Cmd + Shift + p, search for "Settings View: Show Keybindings"
click on "your keymap file"
Add a section there like this one:
'atom-text-editor':
'ctrl-alt-i': 'editor:auto-indent'
If the indention is not working, it can be a reason, that the file-ending is not recognized by Atom. Add the support for your language then, for example for "Lua" install the package "language-lua".
If a File is not recognized for your language:
open the ~/.atom/config.cson file (by CTRL+SHIFT+p: type ``open config'')
add/edit a customFileTypes section under core for example like the following:
core:
customFileTypes:
"source.lua": [
"conf"
]
"text.html.php": [
"thtml"
]
(You find the languages scope names ("source.lua", "text.html.php"...) in the language package settings see here)
If you have troubles with hotkeys, try to open Key Binding Resolver Window with Cmd + .. It will show you keys you're pressing in the realtime.
For example, Cmd + Shift + ' is actually Cmd + "
You could also try to add a key mapping witch auto select all the code in file and indent it:
'atom-text-editor':
'ctrl-alt-l': 'auto-indent:apply'
I was working on some groovy code, which doesn't auto-format on save. What I did was right-click on the code pane, then chose ESLint Fix. That fixed my indents.
If you are used to the Eclipse IDE or the Netbeans, you can use the package eclipse-keybindings (https://atom.io/packages/eclipse-keybindings):
This Atom package provides Eclipse IDE key mappings for Atom. Currently, the Eclipse shortcuts are directly mapped to existing Atom commands.
To format all lines from a file, just use: Ctrl+Shift+F.
Ctrl+Shift+i worked for me in PHP under Windows ... but some files did not react. Not being the brightest it took me a while to work out that it was the include files that were the problem. If you are using echo(' ... PHP ...') then the PHP does not get re-formatted. To get over this, create a temporary PHP file, say t.php, copy the PHP part into that, reindent it (Ctrl+Shift+i ... did I mention that?) and then copy the newly reformatted PHP back into the original file. Whilst this is a pain, it does give you correctly formatted PHP.
Is there a keyboard shortcut for going one level up in the directory tree in midnight commander (mc), which will save me from going all the up to the ..?
As shown below - say I'm in a directory that contains tonnes of stuff, and its painful to scroll all the way up. Its clickable, but nothing beats keyboard shortcuts!
If you go to Options->Panel-Options and tick the "Lynx-like motion" option you can use left-arrow to go to the parent directory and right-arrow to enter a directory.
Does Home, Enter count as a keyboard shortcut?
Short answer: No.
Longer answer: Ctrl + PageUp goes to the last diretory - not the parent, but this may be what you want in most cases.
(https://www.midnight-commander.org/ticket/2420)
Without changing the default setup Alt + Y and Alt + U go to previous and next directory in history, which may be enough on most cases (Alt + H to see the full history). If not, you always have Home, Enter.
Alt + Arrows are used to move between windows on byobu/tmux.
To add a custom shortcut (like Backspace) to your user config:
echo 'CdParentSmart = backspace' >> ~/.config/mc/mc.keymap # Globally in /etc/mc/mc.keymap
Here more related handy shortcuts.
In /etc/mc/mc.default.keymap find and uncomment CdParentSmart in [Panel] section. If it's not there, add it. And set a key you want. Behavoir similar to Total/Double Commander would be CdParentSmart = backspace. So it will backspace command line, if it's not empty. Or will level up from any place, if command line is empty.
The file should be edited when MC is not running, as it is resetting it to currently loaded settings on exit.
How do I easily copy the GNU Screen scrollback buffer to a file? I.e., a more powerful version of the 'hardcopy' command?
In GNU screen, I can use "Ctrl + A Esc" to enter the scrollback
buffer. I could then mark the entire buffer and use "Ctrl + A Ctrl + ]" to paste it into an Emacs buffer, thus saving it to a file.
However, this is tedious. Is there a Screen command that'll simply copy the scrollback buffer to a file, like 'hardcopy' does for the visible portion of the screen?
To write the entire contents of the scrollback buffer to a file, type
Ctrl + A and :
to get to command mode, then
hardcopy -h <filename>
In older versions of screen, if you just do hardcopy -h, it just writes to the file -h. This was fixed in version 4.2.0, so hardcopy -h writes to hardcopy.N where N is the current window number.
Press Ctrl+A :bufferfile /tmp/somefile.txt ENTER, and then Ctrl+A >
This will write the current contents of the buffer to the named file.
TL;DR: ^A:writebuf <filename>
The OP seems to want a way to use the selected portion of the buffer you get when doing a ^A[ , selecting text using space as the start and finish, and then instead of using ^A] to paste, save the resulting selected portion of the buffer to a file.
This worked:
^A:writebuf <filename>
Note: one 'f' in writebuf
Try hardcopy -h to include the whole buffer.
This worked for me:
Enter edit mode (~) and type:
:hardcopy -h buff_file
It created a huge file, of which 98% was empty, but my logs were fully present in remaining 2%.
Ctrl + A, :, and issue the command 'log on'.
Or set it as the default in your .screenrc file as 'deflog on'.
Do Ctrl + A, H.
That saves the current screen into a hard copy file, e.g., hardcopy.0 for screen 0. It seems to be a quicker way than going Ctrl + A, : and typing the hardcopy command.
