** Switch between buffers
|
||||
Two default shortcuts I really like from Spacemacs are ~SPC b m~ and ~SPC
|
||||
b s~, which bring the user directly to the ~*Messages*~ buffer and the
|
||||
~*scratch*~ buffer respectively. These functions do exactly this.

||||

|

"Switch to Messages buffer."
|

|

** Screenshots
|
||||
Since Emacs27, it is possible for Emacs to take screenshots of itself
|
||||
in various formats. I’m mainly interested in the SVG and PNG format,
|
||||
so I’ll only write functions for these. It isn’t really redundant with
|
||||
the ~screenshot.el~ package used [[file:./packages/applications.md#screenshot][here]] since these functions take a
|
||||
screenshot of Emacs as a whole rather than of a code snippet.
|
||||
|
||||
First, we have a general function which is a slight modification of
|
||||
the function shared by Alphapapa in [[https://www.reddit.com/r/emacs/comments/idz35e/emacs_27_can_take_svg_screenshots_of_itself/g2c2c6y/][this Reddit comment]]. I modified it
|
||||
to make it possible to pass as an argument the format the screenshot
|
||||
will be taken as or ask the user which format they would like to save
|
||||
it as.
|
||||
#+begin_src emacs-lisp

||||
(defun self-screenshot (&optional type)
|
||||
"Save a screenshot of type TYPE of the current Emacs frame.

||||

|
||||
`png', `pdf'.
|
||||
|
||||
This function will output in /tmp a file beginning with \"Emacs\"
|
||||
and ending with the extension of the requested TYPE."
|
||||
