Hide “Mail” in emacs mode line

elispemacs

This is small stuff but I haven't been able to figure it out:

How do I hide "Mail" from the mode line in emacs?

Best Answer

Just don't enable display-time-mode.

If you do want time, but not Mail, set display-time-mail-string to an empty string:

(setq display-time-mail-string "")

or, better yet:

(custom-set-variables '(display-time-mail-string ""))

Emacs: recognising the shebang line

This is controlled by interpreter-mode-alist. In my Emacs (23.2.1 on Debian), there's an entry for ruby1.9 out of the box. I guess you have an older version; you can add this to your .emacs:

(add-to-list 'interpreter-mode-alist
             '("ruby1.9" . ruby-mode))

How to have different Emacs sessions loaded on different Emacs windows while using Emacs on daemon mode

from the emacs info documentation:

You can run multiple Emacs servers on the same machine by giving
each one a unique "server name", using the variable `server-name'.  For
example, `M-x set-variable <RET> server-name <RET> foo <RET>' sets the
server name to `foo'.  The `emacsclient' program can specify a server by
name, using the `-s' option.

Does this help?
