  • [auto-dark] for emacs is now available on MELPA

    Nice package! I've added support for this under Linux in my init.el like this:
  • Auto Light/Dark theme with solar.el
    2 projects | /r/emacs | 19 Jan 2022
    I just have a bash script for switching to the dark theme, that gets ran by the WM extension I use. And a separate light theme switching script. Works well for me, but requires OS setup, so I might try a pure Emacs solution!
  • Eglot vs lsp-mode
    2 projects | /r/emacs | 4 Dec 2021
    My setup, as of this moment, is very minimal, and can be found here. Previously I've used a literate approach and documented everything, so you can read about my setup in more detail here just beware that this is a bit outdated. This link features my multiple-cursors setup, which I've tried to make sumilar to Kakoune's one, I think you might find this useful.
  • Emacsclient Appeared Unannounced and is creating issues
    1 project | /r/emacs | 9 Nov 2021
    Sure. However, note that my emacs starts the server that gets shut down when emacs exits.
  • use-package for all settings?
    2 projects | /r/emacs | 31 Oct 2021
    Roughly 98% of my init.el consists only of the use-package calls. I setup all packages, both inbuilt and external via it, and even define some if my own packages directly in init.el with the :preface keyword. Might be ugly, but I almost always just narrow to defun when editing this file.
