Posting from Emacs
    ==================

    It works well enough to post in hacker news. You just need to
    enter all the text in another buffer first, add a line of blank
    spaces at the top, and then kill and yank into the text area. As
    far as I can tell you can copy the way that org-mode deals with
    src-blocks to automate it, but this works well enough for me for
    now.

    It even works in emacspeak, which is kind of amazing. I have a
    blind accessible webbrowser inside an editor without even trying.

    (define identity
      (lambda (x)
        x))

    Even the scheme and paredit-modes work. Essentially it lets you
    author plain text emails as HN comments.
