How can I put DISPLAY name in frame-title of GNU EMACS -

-

i use gnu emacs on multiple monitors windoze pc via vnc.

(currently 5 - 4 big, 1 small monitor on tablet pc. 2 vertical 1200x1920, 2 horizontal 1920x1200, plus small.)

the way doing run separate vnc on each monitor. open single emacs, , use make-frame-other-display open emacs' frames in other vnc window.

to make things more complicated - run vncs on up-to-date ubuntu system, run emacs on quite out of date machine rest of build tools live. i.e. vnc displays not local same machine emacs.

rather xhost+, open xterm in each of vncs, , ssh machine running emacs. creates displays of form localhost:16.0. use make-frame-on-display using these localhost displays.

this gets confusing.

it helps if leave "echo $display" in xterm windows. or chamnge xterm's title.

i'd change emacs' frames' titles, reflect each frame things current display. doing

(defvar frame-title-specific-ag "emacs"  "title element frame-title-format specific particular emacs instance; andy glew") (setq frame-title-format   (list     "frame=%f "     (format "%s" frame-title-specific-ag)     " " 'system-name     " display="     (getenv "display")     " %b"     " " (format "pid:%d" (emacs-pid))     " user:"(user-login-name))   )

only gets display variable entire emacs.

q: there way find out display associated particular frame?

to display name current frame, use

(frame-parameter nil 'display)

or replace nil specific frame name of display instead of current one. example, use show display in title:

(setq frame-title-format       '("display=" (:eval (frame-parameter nil 'display))))

note important form quoted, list used has :eval tells emacs run code whenever renders frame title. without that, might tempted write like:

(setq frame-title-format       (list "display=" (frame-parameter nil 'display)))

but doesn't work. problem function call happens when form evaluated, , result list holding particular string, name of whatever frame in effect evaluation happened, , string not change magically.

how copy observablecollection item observablecollection without reference of first collection? here observablecollection item value changes affecting both collections. code private observablecollection<ratemodel> _allmetalrate = new observablecollection<ratemodel>(); private observablecollection<ratemodel> _metalrateondate = new observablecollection<ratemodel>(); public observablecollection<ratemodel> allmetalrate { { return this._allmetalrate; } set { this._allmetalrate = value; notifypropertychanged("metalrate"); } } public observablecollection<ratemodel> metalrateondate { { return this._metalrateondate; } set { this._metalrateondate = value; notifypropertychanged("metalrateondate"); } } foreach (var item in metalrateondate) allmetalrate.add(item); what causing , how can solve it? you need clone object referenced item before it's a...

All overlapping substrings matching a java regex -

-
is there api method returns (possibly overlapping) substrings match regular expression? for example, have text string: string t = 04/31 412-555-1235; , , have pattern: pattern p = new pattern("\\d\\d+"); matches strings of 2 or more characters. the matches are: 04, 31, 412, 555, 1235. how overlapping matches? i want code return: 04, 31, 41, 412, 12, 55, 555, 55, 12, 123, 1235, 23, 235, 35. theoretically should possible -- there obvious o(n^2) algorithm enumerates , checks substrings against pattern. edit rather enumerating substrings, safer use region(int start, int end) method in matcher . checking pattern against separate, extracted substring might change result of match (e.g. if there non-capturing group or word boundary check @ start/end of pattern). edit 2 actually, it's unclear whether region() expect zero-width matches. specification vague, , experiments yield disappointing results. for example: string line = "xx90xx"; strin...
