The lock script was updated to work with gnome 3.10 and the emacs configs slowing becoming more usable and less buggy.

# gimmie an editor, make it emacs or a nice vi clone

Is peco supposed to be pico?

Good catch Steven! Do the think I should make a symlink from emacsrc to emacsrc.el?
I did not think it was needed because the emacs rc was buggy enough that I think no one uses it but Fab and I. Also emacs users are good at debugging init scrips and would quickly know to change their symlink. Still it would provide backwards compatibility for people who pull updates to acmdots.

Well why are we changing it to have a .el extension? None of the other config files have extensions.

I wouldn't bother symlinking, though. It might prevent their config from breaking but it also means they won't get any of the updates and they might not realize that, which'd be worse. If anyone wants to pull updates from acmdots they'll need to re-run the install script.

My only other concern with the rename would be merge conflicts, but a symlink won't help with that. Git is probably smart enough to apply any changes to the renamed file, though.

Good catch Steven!
