Version 1.14.2
Released Jan 17, 2018 - 287.48 KBWorks with firefox 48.0 and later, android 48.0 to 68.*dispatch "input" event to textarea after update
Some sites (looking at you, fastmail.fm) apparently maintain a shadow copy of a textarea's contents,
updating it from `change` events on the real textarea. Unfortunately, when `emacs_chrome` directly updates
the real textarea with text received from emacs, the shadow copy does not see these changes.
The user (me) is then surprised to see that upon submitting the web page (i.e. `Send`ing the email),
the edits made in emacs have disappeared, even though they were visible in the textarea.
This commit forces an `input` event to be dispatched to the textarea after its value has been set
with the new contents received from emacs, and fixes the problem (for fastmail.fm , at least)Source code released under GNU General Public License v3.0 only
Version 1.14
Released Dec 19, 2017 - 287.37 KBWorks with firefox 47.0 and later, android 47.0 to 68.*Edit with Emacs is an extension for Firefox/Chrome(ium)
that allows you to edit text areas on your browser in a more full
featured editor. It does this in conjunction with an "Edit Server"
which services requests by the browser. This is because extensions
cannot spawn new processes as a security measure.
The extension packages native elisp version that can be run inside
GNU Emacs itself, just follow the instructions from the options page
of the extension. It has been known to work with GNU Emacs and
Aquamacs (MacOS); it is presently not compatible with XEmacs.
Other example edit servers can be found at the project homepage. There
is no reason why other server scripts could not spawn other editors
and currently a number of servers support the simple URL based
protocol.
