quiet
A simple package to disconnect from the online world for a while, possibly reconnecting later. Any interuptions or distractions which occur once the command is run are guaranteed to be local.
disconnection
M-x quiet will disconnect from the network, optionally
reconecting after a certain time.
the function quiet can be used anywhere in emacs where
lack of network access could be seen a as a feature, e.g. as a mode-hook
(or with defadvice) to your preferred distraction free
writing environment.
reconection
M-x quiet-reconnect will manually reconect to the
network, however you can enable a timer to automatically reconnect by
setting quiet-timer to a number of minutes. e.g.
(setq quiet-timer 60) will let quiet to
reconnect after one hour. if quiet-timer is set to 0 it
won't reconnect automatically.
network interfaces
you may want to customize or setq
quiet-disconnect and quiet-connect to the
appropriate shell commands to turn your network (or single interface) on
or off.
