6eac1de187 Debug Emacs initialization
Since "Briefcase" doesn't exist, `window-manager--switch` fails and so does
`exwm-init-hook`. It'd be nice to catch these errors earlier...

562c82f3f2 Bind "g SPC" to #'Info-scroll-up
I'm using the "g <char>" pattern that evil-collection uses, which I think is
okay.

4cd552de28 Alter doom-acario-dark's font for comments
Thanks to my newly acquired `Info-mode` navigation skills, I quickly learned how
to alter fonts in Emacs!

a8704bb54d Define KBDs for ibuffer
I'd like to start using ibuffer more, so I'm making it a more hospitable place
by defining useful KBDs.

I took the Info-mode tutorial (finally) and I found some things from
evil-collection that I liked, other things that I didn't like.

a7aef84408 Update my grocery list for Bermondsey London
I haven't updated this list since I was living in Dargow, Germany over the
summer. Now that I've settled down, and I'm situated in the London Bridge area,
I'm updating the list.

ce61987959 Extend named-workspace struct to include display information
I want to couple my EXWM workspaces with monitors. E.g. - I'd like my "Chatter"
workspace to prefer my `4k-vertical`. This change supports that.

I also did a small amount of formatting, which I don't think belongs in a
separate commit.

1a5b2ab3b0 Add step to my finances playbook
This is a helpful reminder to ensure that the exchange rate is always
fresh. Ideally I could use Google Sheets formulae to take a snapshot of the
GBP:USD exchange rate *at a point in time*, but I haven't set that up yet. Maybe
it'd look something like:

```pseudocode
=GOOGLEFINANCE("GBP:USD", "September 1, 2020")
```

I'll have to look into this.

fc0c795c4e Debug failed Emacs initialization
My newly minted macro for defining monitors introduced two bugs:
1. Laptop defined its position in terms of 4k-horizontal and 4k-horizontal
   defined its position in terms of laptop, I introduced a circular dependency.
2. The identifier, `laptop-monitor`, which `window-manager.el` depends on, is
   now defined as `laptop`.

A friendly reminder to myself to always test new Emacs builds to make sure that
everything can initialize properly. This is something that my CI should be
automating, but ever since I moved flats, I lost my CI and need to restore it.

This is another reminder to drop into a TTY when Emacs fails to initialize, run
`nix-env --rollback`, then attempt to restart X. But this time, debugging this
entirely from a TTY wasn't so disappointing.

831dba20bf Define display-4k-vertical
I recently acquired a new monitor, which I'm orienting vertically for logs,
chats, etc. As such I needed to add more functions, KBDs to wrangle the
setup. To DRY up my code, I define a macro, `display-register`, as a DSL for
supporting new monitors. This:
- defines two functions for enabling and disabling the displays
- defines a constant, `display-<name>`

It's basically just a wrapper around `xrandr`, and that's good enough for now.

34ec3104f7 Debug dottime in modeline
My modeline was displaying the local time (not UTC time) and appending the UTC
timezone offset, which was confusing me.

When it was `00:03` in London, my modeline would read `00:03+01`. One way of
interpreting this is that it's `00:03` in London and the `+01` is a reminder
that I'm one hour ahead of UTC. However, I was reading it as though it was
`00:03` UTC and thus `01:03` in London.

I had to set `display-time-string-forms` instead of `display-time-string` to
pass the `t` argument to the `ZONE` parameter to indicate that I'd prefer to use
UTC time and not local time when expanding the variables.

2edcaca6b4 Expose path to GOOGLE_BRIEFCASE as env var
After ~1-2 hours of debugging, I realized that locally I was reading from .envrc
but when Emacs initializes, it is not reading from .envrc. I don't know how to
ideally handle this, so for now I'm including GOOGLE_BRIEFCASE as an environment
variable and moving on with my life.

5cf6a0b23d Add defgroup vterm-mgt for vterm-mgt
In the past I used `defconst` in many of my Elisp libraries where I should've
used something like:

```elisp
;; some/path/to/some-lib.el

(defgroup some-lib nil)

(defcustom some-lib-setting nil
  :group 'some-lib)
```

When I encounter code that I should've structured this way, I'm cleaning it up
to prefer this more idiomatic pattern.

b89d1f0a1f Call make-process instead of call-process in scrot.el
While attempting to debug why pressing `C-s-s` from an X-window screenshots my
entire screen, I switched from `call-process` to `make-process`, which is
async.

I still haven't debugged the original issue, but I think this is an improvement
regardless.
