Hi all!

Tonight, I was looking on how to use a CLI mail client on Windows. I found :

* Alpine
* Mutt.

I have choosed to use Alpine, which look more adapt on windows. So, here is a quick setup how to.

Then, you can mix Alpine with stunnel and avast for a light mail solution on your laptop.

You can add some check spelling.

If you want to manage you professionnal email over MS Exchange (OWA), you can use some additionnal tools such as :
* msfetch
* OWA sync

Hi all,

I have learnt how to use Emacs when I was a student in my engineering school. Since that day, I have always work with emacs, on Linux, FreeBSD and Windows computers.

Today, I was looking ahead a way to boost my day life with Emacs at work. Yes, I'm using emacs at work as main text editor. As an embedded engineer, I'm coding in C ans assembly with Emacs, using IDE like Keil only for compiling and debugging.

So, to improve Emacs, I have found some wounderful modules :
* CEDET
* ECB

You may need to get some additionnal information about emacs installation / configuration on Windows. So, go on the emacs installation page.

Some additional links:
* Basic types on Emacs, etags definition.
* very good Emacs shortcut reminder.
* Emacs Tuto 2.
* how to use Ebrowse the native C/C++ browser in emacs.
* a blog around emacs and software developement.
* a lisp cookbook for emacs
* list of emacs plugins
* MAGIT, a GIT extension for emacs
* browsing C sorce code with Emacs
