screenwriter.el


The most universal and simple solution is Screenwriter.el a fork of Screenplay.el by Vance L. Simpson. This is an excellent screenplay (major) mode for GNU Emacs that is easy to use, efficient, and will work on any and every platform that the ubiquitous and revered GNU Emacs works on.

If you are running a default install of Slackware, as Slackermedia recommends, then you will have Emacs installed already. If you have not installed Emacs, you will find it in the e package set.

Installing .el files for Emacs is as simple as placing the .el in a user-owned ~/elisp directory, and then adding that ~/elisp directory into Emacs' load directory if it is not already there:

$ mkdir ~/elisp $ wget http://cvs.savannah.gnu.org/viewvc/checkout/screenwriter/screenwriter/screenwriter-1.5.tar.bz2 $ tar -xf screenwriter-1.5.tar.bz2 $ mv ./screenwriter-mode/screenwriter.el ~/elisp $ echo “(add-to-list 'load-path \”~/elisp\“)”
