(defun motionless-mark ()
  "Do commands until a command.
  
Remember point and then read a key to end a sequence of commands.
The sequence is read (until you enter the key that is being matched 
as the end marker) and executed and then, when the end command is 
matched, point is moved back to the remembered location and 
the end command is executed.

This can be useful for things like slurp."

/*
 simple little javascript to make org-mode presentations

 export your org-mode to HTML with this at the end:

 #+HTML: <script src="app.js"></script>

 I also go to town and use a nice stylesheet.

 Publish it with elnode with M-x elnode-make-js-server

My friend has thought of a platform as a website which enables people wanting 
to code on a project base. The creator of a project will outline it and start 
work, where others may add lines of code for fun and for learning. We believe 
it could bridge the gap between different competencies and also be a learning 
arena. This is currently been started. will comence more on 21june.
