Implementation of an xkcd reader for GNU Emacs.
emacs-xkcd is available on MELPA and Marmalade. Just add any
of these to your package archives, and install the package with
M-x package-install xkcd
.
Emacs xkcd can also be installed using el-get. To do so, run
M-x el-get-install xkcd
Clone this repo to a desired location, add the directory to your load path:
(add-to-list 'load-path (expand-file-name "/path/to/emacs-xkcd"))
(require 'xkcd)
xkcd-get
loads a user-specific xkcd.
Files are cached (for later offline viewing) by default to ~/.emacs.d/xkcd/
.
This can be changed by changing xkcd-cache-dir
in emacs-xkcd’s customize menu.
(customize-group xkcd
)
xkcd
loads the latest xkcd.
emacs-xkcd can be customized with M-x customize-group xkcd
.
