* Emacs Configuration
|
||
|
||
[[file:./img/emacs.svg]]
|
||
|
||
** Introduction
|
||
After a couple of years using Spacemacs and a failed attempt at
|
||
switching to DoomEmacs, I’m finally switching back to a vanilla
|
||
configuration! Why? Because I got tired of the framework getting in my
|
||
way when I wanted to do stuff. I’m sure this is more applicable to
|
||
Spacemacs than DoomEmacs since the latter has nice macros written to
|
||
easily add new packages and configure them, such as ~package!~, ~after!~,
|
||
and others. But ultimately, I wanted to have a system I designed
|
||
entirely, with the keybinds I want, the packages I want.
|
||
|
||
Also, why Emacs? You know this famous quote:
|
||
#+begin_quote
|
||
Emacs is a great operating system, it just lacks a good text editor.
|
||
#+end_quote
|
||
|
||
It’s actually pretty true in my opinion. Emacs is basically a Lisp
|
||
machine with a default text editor, programmed with EmacsLisp, a
|
||
general-purpose programming language. Therefore, if you want to do
|
||
something in Emacs, with enough Elisp you can do it --- if it’s not in
|
||
Emacs already, that is.

** A Warning Before You Proceed

:PROPERTIES:

:header-args:emacs-lisp: :tangle no
|
||
:END:
|
||
This configuration makes heavy use of the [[https://orgmode.org/manual/Noweb-Reference-Syntax.html][noweb]] syntax. This means if
|
||
you encounter some code that looks ~<<like-this>>~, org-mode will
|
||
replace this snippet with another code snippet declared elsewhere in
|
||
my configuration. If you see some code that looks ~<<like-this()>>~,
|
||
some generating code will run and replace this piece of text with the
|
||
text generated. A quick example:
|
||
#+begin_src elisp
|
||
(defun hello ()
|
||
<<generate-docstring()>>
|
||
<<print-hello>>)
|
||
#+end_src
|
||
|
||
Will instead appear as
|
||
#+begin_src emacs-lisp :noweb yes
|
||
(defun hello ()
|
||
<<generate-docstring()>>
|
||
<<print-hello>>)
|
||
#+end_src
|
||
|
||
This is because I have the block of code below named
|
||
~generate-docstring~ which generates an output, which replaces its noweb
|
||
tag. You can recognize noweb snippets generating code with the
|
||
parenthesis. Often, such blocks aren’t visible in my HTML exports, but
|
||
you can still see them if you open the actual org source file.
|
||
#+name: generate-docstring
|
||
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
|
||
(concat "\""
|
||
"Print \\\"Hello World!\\\" in the minibuffer."
|
||
"\"")
|
||
#+end_src
|
||
|
||
On the other hand, noweb snippets without parenthesis simply replace
|
||
the snippet with the equivalent named code block. For instance the one
|
||
below is named ~print-hello~ and is placed as-is in the target source
|
||
block.
|
||
#+name: print-hello
|
||
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
|
||
(message "Hello World!")
|
||
#+end_src
