Hi;
I am trying to figure out the best way to solve the following problem:
I have a text file, c-notes.txt, which I open in a separate frame. I
use it to make lots of notes to myself as a go about learning the 'C'
language. I would probably like to start an elisp-notes.txt, etc. for
other languages.
I would like to open these text files with a completely different set of
fonts, background colours, faces and minor modes from my usual emacs. I
would also like to restrict those frames or instances of emacs to a few
text files.
Has anybody else done the same?
Could you point me to an existing solution?
(Yes, I looked. I couldn't find anything even close, but that could
have been a search criteria problem.)
Or, could you suggest a better way to go about solving this problem?
I thought of constructing a /.emacs2 file and having a completely new or
separate instance of emacs for these files. How would I do that so that
emacs2 could find /.emacs2 and not /.emacs on start up, if it is even
possible?
Any "getting started" strategies or pointers would be welcome.
