    <p>So I just downloaded emacs 23.1 for my new snow leopard macbook pro from <a href="http://emacsformacosx.com/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://emacsformacosx.com/</a> and it works like a charm, except...</p> <p>I have visual customizations in my .emacs, a few lines are extracted here:</p> <blockquote> <p>(set-background-color "black")<br> (set-cursor-color "green") (set-default-font "-<em>-Lucida Console-normal-r-normal-normal-18-</em>-96-96-c-*-iso10646-1")</p> </blockquote> <p>I also have some key bindings set up, here are a few lines of those</p> <blockquote> <p>(global-set-key "\C-l" `goto-line)</p> <p>(global-set-key [(control ?%)] `query-replace-regexp)</p> </blockquote> <p>The first time I start emacs or open a document with emacs, everything loads perfectly. When I issue a command-N or open another file through finder, a new window opens with the key binding customizations loaded but without the visual customizations (including window size, etc)</p> <p>I think this has something to do with how emacsclient is being invoked and the emacs server, but despite my avid usage of emacs for development, I'm pretty clueless when it comes to setting up the editor itself outside of .emacs level customization</p> <p>Here are potential behaviors I would like to achieve when a new window is opened (via command-n or opening a document in finder), in order of preference:</p> <ol> <li><p>Have the new window create a new emacs process (not just a new buffer) so that I can manage and navigate multiple projects similar to how textmate does it, using one emacs process for each project.</p></li> <li><p>Have those visual customizations be persistent so that each new window loads with the correct sizing, fonts, and colors.</p></li> <li><p>Have each new document open as a buffer within the current active emacs window.</p></li> </ol> <p>Let me know if you guys can help, thanks!</p>

    1. COIs there a clear policy on development tools? Emacs is a terrible beast -- in terms of totally non-programming customizations possible --compared to e.g. visual studio, but it is still a development tool.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
