Emacs

Emacs is available on our Linux clients.

If you run emacs from the command line, it will try to open a graphical window. If you do not have a graphical environment available (most commonly from using SSH to connect to a system without using X forwarding), you should instead run:

emacs -nw

In some cases, running emacs when there is no graphical environment available will result in a error message similar to "cannot open display".
