edit server

As the security model of Chrome(ium) doesn’t allow the spawning of external binaries (apart from the discouraged NAPI interface) we need to run a server to handle edit requests.
This currently project provides two such servers. The first is a python script called pycl and the second is a native elisp server called edit_server.el.
If you run emacs in —daemon or —server mode and are comfortable with running a server within emacs then the native server will save the cost of a few fork/execs.
Other Edit Servers include:
- TextAid has a server here which works along similar lines and should also work.
- http://gist.github.com/367752
- https://github.com/gfxmonk/edit-server – a forked version of this project’s python edit server with additional functionality (e.g allows editing of multiple concurrent files)
