I use VHDL-LS as my VHDL language server for lsp mode. This combined with vhdl major mode, and other packages such as vhdl-ext, provides me with a very robust IDE within Emacs for my VHDL projects.
A requirement of the language server is to have a vhdl_ls.toml file which includes all sources used on a project. Even with glob patterns, it can get annoying when a new source/folder/module needs to be added; the toml file must be updated accordingly and one can easily forget to add that one folder or file.
A common occurrence in my daily work is to provide on-the-spot support to colleagues and/or users. These can occur in a multitude of different ways: office or mobile phone, calls via a virtual meeting tool, in person by showing up in my office, while walking to a lab, etc. Most importantly, they are unscheduled, usually short (less than 15min), and inconsequential.
I decided to develop a function to quickly document these interactions in my Org workflow.
For a while, I have been considering doing a series of Youtube videos inspired by the awesome series from Rainer König about Org Mode, just to show how Emacs is the best free VHDL editor. Far too often, I see experienced HDL developers using the default editor provided by the FPGA vendor tools. You don’t need to dive deep into Emacs to take full advantage of the VHDL mode available in the editor.
The usual first post, just testing that everything works fine.
It did after a couple of tries ;-) I am using the Poison theme and at first I has having problems with my profile picture and my about page not being properly displayed. Adding this line to my hugo.toml did the trick:
