  I have just added a new feature to my Jinx spell-checking package. The new command jinx-remove-word removes words from the personal dictionary, file-local variables and so on. Reuben Thomas (the maintainer of the Enchant library backing Jinx) suggested this addition. He is also an #emacs and #jinx user! https://github.com/minad/jinx/discussions/269

  So glad that MELPA is getting a new versioning scheme, such that all ELPA snapshot archives become compatible. Snapshot package versions have the form release.0.date.count, starting with the version number of the last release. https://snapshots.melpa.org/ https://releases.melpa.org/ https://github.com/melpa/melpa/pull/10057 #emacs #melpa #elpa @tarsius @sanityinc

  Now the GNU vs NonGNU ELPA discussion continues on emacs-devel: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2026-04/msg00476.html If you want to entertain a discussion on the Emacs bug tracker or emacs-devel forever, this is how you do it. You can do it even if you have contributed nothing to Emacs, wasting everyone's time. TL;DR There is no actual problem.

  Please consider enabling `package-review-policy` on Emacs 31, and help reviewing package updates. This will help to catch supply chain attacks on the Emacs package archive like this one: https://github.com/kubernetes-el/kubernetes-el/commit/09e06af093bc3b5c98076177c359b812f86d371f #emacs #security

  @mekeor @tusharhero @divyaranjan As long as Gtk depends on Cairo, Emacs can continue to use it. But of course it is possible to replace it if necessary. The canvas intentionally only gives access to a simple pixel buffer. Right now it works with and without Cairo on X. I did not test other platforms.

  Emacs doom scaling The canvas has an original size of 320x200 and is scaled up by Cairo or XRENDER. Works better than expected.

  I have implemented a new version of the Emacs canvas patch. Refreshing avoids redrawing or even checking the entire buffer. Only the single glyph where the canvas is attached as display property is redrawn. I welcome help with testing or porting to other platforms than Cairo/Pgtk or X. @divyaranjan ported his Pale library to the new version of the canvas API, with good results.
