  • What’s New in Emacs 28.1?

    Yeah, I never really looked at mouse binding, but does look quite simple.

    This implements acme chording for copy/paste and the approach looks straightforward: https://github.com/akrito/acme-mouse/blob/master/acme-mouse....

    And this package looks like a cool way to recreate the context sensitive text actions: https://github.com/cmpitg/wand

    Combining the approach from the first and the wand package could potentially surpass the acme experience by making it easier to customize and extend.

    My friend joked about how I'm religious about the keyboard, but really it's about the right tool for the job, and if I had an acme-like mouse experience with emacs I'd def be mousing around more often. Funny that compared to normal people I'm a keyboard fanatic but compared to majority of emacs users I'm on the mouse way more often :)

    There is Wand for Emacs. I don't know how it works in the terminal, but it is great for an Acme fix. https://github.com/cmpitg/wand

    Sounds like what you want is emacs, but preconfigured. In that case, have you tried Doom Emacs, Spacemacs or any of the myriad of others like those?

    The performance lag of Spacemacs was addressed by Doom Emacs ( https://github.com/hlissner/doom-emacs ). Have you tried Doom Emacs by any chance. After syncing everything, the performance is stellar in my opinion.
  • Please help me in translating my vimrc to emacs equivalents.

    but I just realized, you're probably better off using doom emacs. The defaults are sane, customizations are almost always optional and the community's really active/helpful. (Disclaimer: I'm a doom emacs user with ~2k lines of config)

    While Doom is more opinionated, it's not too difficult make Emacs your own, most of the choices are optimized anyway. Currently the head of Spacemacs devs is not active on the project anymore. Also I don't think it's hard to upstream code to Doom, as long as the code is thoroughly written, take a similar example on both sides: the introduction of a completion engine as layer/module (same packages are installed): - https://github.com/syl20bnr/spacemacs/pull/14901: 23 comments, 7 participants - https://github.com/hlissner/doom-emacs/pull/4664: 576 comments, 20 participants

    Nowadays, I use https://github.com/hlissner/doom-emacs with WSL2 but only for org-mode. For code, I have either Sublime Text or VS Code.
