Emacs on windows.

So I like to work on my server as it has automated backups and it keeps all my work in one spot. The only issue that I have is I don't always like sitting at the server to do code. So to solve this I installed a X11 server on my Windows laptop. This was rather easy to do and now I get the use of my mouse with emacs. Here is the processes:

1. Download Xming

2. Download Xming-Fonts (this is not included in the straight Xming Download)

3. Download putty

4. Install above programs

5. Add "export LANG=en_US.iso88591" to you .bash_profile

6. Setup X11 forwarding in putty (Connection -> SSH -> X11) Click the Enable check box and add localhost:0 in to the X display location.

When I first set this up I missed the download of the fonts, once this was solved it all worked.
