ack-and-a-half.el provides a simple compilation mode for the perl grep-a-like ack (http://petdance.com/ack/).
Add the following to your .emacs:
(add-to-list 'load-path "/path/to/ack-and-a-half")
(require 'ack-and-a-half)
;; Create shorter aliases
(defalias 'ack 'ack-and-a-half)
(defalias 'ack-same 'ack-and-a-half-same)
(defalias 'ack-find-file 'ack-and-a-half-find-file)
(defalias 'ack-find-file-same 'ack-and-a-half-find-file-same)
This will load the ack-and-a-half functions, and create shorter
aliases for them.
ack-and-a-half was created from
ack.el and
full-ack.el. Both had
features that I liked, but neither was satisfactory on its own. Thus
ack-and-a-half was born.
