When running emacs in terminal mode (usually over a remote login) I can see the usual pulldown menus (file, edit, options etc) at the top of the screen, but I have no idea how to operate them.
Does anyone know how to do this?
Have you ever been wondering how to access the Emacs menu bar, when using Emacs in console mode? The answer is easy - press F10 or type M-x menu-bar-open(both methods work in X as well, of course).
While menu bar items vary between applications, most menu bars include the standard File, Edit, and View menus. The File menu includes common file options such as New, Open…, Save, and Print. The Edit menu contains commands such as Undo, Select All, Copy, and Paste.
You may use the function key f10 (menu-bar-open
) to open the menu.
