I'm also making this my default theme for now. I'm growing a bit tired of
randomly assigning themes, since my `terminator` theme is not coupled to my
Emacs theme.
I'm not sure I'm sold on the "D{0,1}" keybindings. The thought was that 0 would
indicate off and 1 would indicate on. This seems sensible to me. I'm hesitant
because I don't think I have precedent for this idiom in any of my existing
keybindings.
I'm also not sure I like these being leader-prefixed keybindings.
Two things:
1. I'm unsure if what I previously committed ever worked because the arguments
to `string/format` were flipped.
2. I'm unsure why my screen devices are sometimes eDP-1 and eDP1.
Perhaps expect more commits as this becomes more clear to me.
I temporarily set it to /tmp/custom.el while I was in the midst of Nixifying my
Emacs setup. Since I'm not Nixified at the moment, I'm reverting this, so that
Emacs doesn't ask me the same questions about loading themes every day.
Configuring deadgrep to do a number of things:
1. Set `deadgrep--context` to see more context "after" in the output.
2. Define `deadgrep/dwim` to use a region if one is present; otherwise just
behave as `deadgrep`.
Warning: This commit relies on a patch I made to deadgrep: supporting the
`deadgrep--additional-flags`.
Instead of consuming `cycle/previous-focus`, define a function
`cycle/focus-previous!` that "focuses" the element at `previous-index` and
returns that element.
This function greatly simplified the code in window-manager.el and eliminated
the unnecessary `exwm/previous-workspace` variable that was managing the state.
Define a `cycle/previous-focus` function that returns the item that was
previously "focused" in the cycle. This is helpful for toggling back-and-forth
between buffers and EXWM workspaces for example without needing to define ad-hoc
variables to support it.
Also: Adds tests to cycle.el.
Also: Prefers `struct/set!` instead of `setf`. See the previous commit's message
for more information about that preference.
I originally tried using `struct/set` instead of `setf`, which I had forgotten
was the *immutable* version of `struct/set!`. When this didn't work, I reverted
to `setf`. After a good night's sleep and with a fresh set of eyes, I dug into
the issue and discovered that `struct/set!` was what I wanted the whole.
I am curious now about `struct/update` versus `struct/update!`; shouldn't the
former be immutable and the latter be mutable? I'll save that investigation for
a later date.
I've wanted an MRU/LRU sort of my "source code buffers" in Emacs. This commit
support three ways for working with a cache of source code buffers.
So first, what's a source code buffer? Well it isn't a buffer like *Messages*;
we can call these "Emacs-generated" buffers for convenience. Other problematic
buffers are buffers like `magit-status` and `dired-mode` and `erc` buffers.
I added some predicates for querying buffers for their major modes.
Supporting three KBDs for quickly accessing these functions:
1. <SPC><SPC> Toggle previous buffer
2. <SPC>b Use ivy to fuzzily search source code buffers
3. C-{f,b} Cycle {forwards,backwards} through the source code buffer cache.
I had forgotten that I defined <SPC>J. Maybe I should switch to using Hydras or
transient mode to improve the discoverability of my own setup... well in the
spirit of support things that I will likely forget, here's a new KBD for editing
config files in the `~/.config` directory.
Defined `dotfiles/find-emacs-file` and `org-helpers/find-file`, to clean up some
of the `find-file` calls I have with long path names. This DRYs things up as
well so that the path can be changed without breaking many other things.
I've wanted a library like this ever since I saw Douglas Crockford's JS talk
about scope highlighting as a more useful alternative to syntax highlighting.
The things that I dislike about this setup are:
1. `xref-find-definitions` takes me to `/nix/store`, which is a read-only
version of the source code, so I cannot edit it, which doesn't feel lispy.
2. I need to rebuild the derivation when I change something, which also doesn't
feel lispy.
There are ways to circumvent both of these drawbacks, but for now, I'm checking
this in only to later revert it.
After deciding to support the `C-s-` prefix for lispyville KBDs, I'm
re-introducing support for:
- `lispyville-drag-backward`
- `lispyville-drag-forward`
- `lispyville-end-of-defun`
- `lispyville-beginning-of-defun`
Previously my ERC setup just supported Google's internal IRC. Now I have
Freenode for things like #nixos, #emacs.
This complicated my KBDs for cycling through IRC channels since certain channels
only exist on certain servers. To remedy this, I introduced a temporary solution
that looks up the server given a particular channel. This isn't ideal, but it
works for now.
If you refer to the previous commit where I change shell-command usages to
start-process function calls, you'll see the rationale for why I prefer
start-process.
This commit introduces a more ergonomic API for start-process that fits most of
my current use-cases of it. This cleans up the code. I have introduced a bug in
the way that I'm tokenizing the COMMAND value. I've tracked that with a
TODO. For now it only affects the `xmodmap -e '<command-string>'` calls, which
isn't too disruptive.
Continuing the series of easy-win commits that increase the speed of commands
that I was previously using `shell-command` to run by using `start-process`
instead.
As promised in the previous commit, I'm refactoring usages of `shell-command` to
prefer the faster alternative `start-process`. So far, I'm pleased with the
results.
Without doing any benchmarking (break this naughty habit), I'm preferring to
call `start-process` instead of `shell-command` in my `wallpaper/set`
function. I noticed that the `shell-command` call was unnecessarily polluting my
`pstree` call when I debugging my randomly changing wallpaper bug.
I'm mostly likely going to change a few more `shell-command` calls to prefer
`start-process`.
While I first switched to EXWM warily and thinking it would only be temporary,
it seems like this switch is here to stay. It turns out that EXWM was exactly
the integration I've been looking for. How serendipitous it that I found it when
I did.
Thank you, @tazjin.
While this commit isn't much (i.e. notmuch), it represents one brave step
forward in the quest for supporting email in Emacs -- something I'm estimating
to be somewhere between a 1.5x and 2x workflow booster.
Google-related files should eventually be moved out of GitHub hosting and onto
Google infrastructure (e.g. Git on Borg).
When I do this, I should run:
```fish
> git grep --ignore-case google (git rev-list --all)
```
To assess the reference I've introduced into this repository.
Other tools that should come in handy when I do this are:
- git filter-branch
- BFG repo-cleaner
For now, my lack of understanding of purpose results in purpose getting in my
way. One day, I may reinvestigate this. For now, I'm attempting to learn Prolog
and Nix, which is occupying most of my tolerance for new technology.
It took me awhile to install evil-magit because I believed that evil-collection
supported it. My grasp of Emacs bindings was enough to tolerate the strangely
"inconsistent" KBD support of in magit. Eventually though my tolerance waned,
and I verified that evil-collection does *not* support magit, and suggests that
users seek evil-magit. I did that. I do not regret it.
Installing Wilfred's refine.el, which is a lovely package for interactively
editing data structures. Go LISP!
In a moment of strong opinions against variadic functions, I defined
maybe/somes? and redefined maybe/some? to be non-variadic. I'm not sure if I
feel as strongly about that change as I did when I made it. Either way, the
change remains and math.el is broken unless it consumes maybe/somes?, so... this
does that!
I provided the wrong usage example in my documentation. This goes to show how
critical generated documentation is to the goal of documentation reliability,
which itself bolsters the goal of documentation in general.
After some back-and-forth, I'm trialing fish shell instead of zsh as my default
shell. For now, I'm porting the aliases.zsh into config.fish -- defining them as
abbreviations instead of aliases; this preference may change. See the commentary
in config.fish for more information.
A spent a lot of time in zsh and built much configuration, so supporting fish
may take considerable time. Here's some work that remains:
TODO:
- Port functions.zsh
- Port variables.zsh
- Port zle.zsh
After attempting to package some of my Elisp libraries using Nix, I exposed
circular dependencies between modules that has existed for awhile.
I'm temporarily disabling this code since I do not have time to refactor
everything. When I get around to packaging everything, I'll need to resolve
these issues.
For now, I must carry on.
Currently paying the price of months of non-diligent git usage.
Here's what has changed.
- Theming support in Gvcci and wpgtk
- Dropping support for i3
- Supporting EXWM
- Many Elisp modules
- Collapsed redundant directories in ./configs
