Prerequisites

On Linux xclip, xdotool, xprop, and xwininfo are needed.

On MacOS, Emacs must be allowed to “control your computer” under Settings > Accessibility.

Features

To use this, invoke the emacs-everywhere executable. This can be done in two ways:

  • emacsclient --eval "(emacs-everywhere)"
  • doom everywhere

It is recommended that you add a keybinding for this.

From here, you can edit away to your hearts content in the created frame, then return to the original window and paste the content with C-c C-c or SPC q f. To exit without pasting, use C-c C-k.

Configuration

emacs-everywhere likes to guess if you triggered it from an application which supports markdown. Configure emacs-everywhere-markdown-windows and emacs-everywhere-markdown-apps to improve how accurate this is on your system.

By default, when markdown is detected, markdown-mode is used. It is possible to instead use pandoc to convert the content to Org (and export to markdown when closing the frame) by setting emacs-everywhere-major-mode-function to #'org-mode.

Most other behaviour is implemented as hooks on emacs-everywhere-init-hooks.
