    Emacs has code peek.

    With lsp-mode it has that little window: https://emacs-lsp.github.io/lsp-ui/#lsp-ui-peek

    Personally I use eglot with consult which temporarily switches the entire buffer to do the "peek" functionality rather than popping up a tiny window: https://github.com/minad/consult

  • Highlight multiple lines in consult-line
    2 projects | /r/emacs | 15 Jun 2023
    Thanks for working on this! I just added a consult--maybe-recenter function in a recent commit. This is a nice idea since it can reduce the jumpiness of Consult preview quite a bit.
  • Returning emacs user - what packages are common now?
    9 projects | /r/emacs | 9 May 2023
    An example relevant to your list would be some changes many people are taking with their completion framework - using package that leverage core emacs functionality rather than replacing it with a complete package that 'overrides' it. Consult, vertico, orderless and associate packages come to mind here. If you do a bit of a search you'll find plenty of info. Here is a video from Prot on the subject, but there are many others as well. I think Prot actually went on to write his own completion system to overlay native emacs functionality as well.
  • What's that email client doing here?
    10 projects | /r/emacs | 5 May 2023
    For the "lauch workspaces", I use burly which just uses simple bookmarks. Then with consult, I just use C-x b, then m to narrow to bookmarks and I have all the workspaces available (remote as well).

  • Why does elpaca make emacs startup so much faster?
    9 projects | /r/emacs | 23 Apr 2023
    Wow, interesting that my response is getting down voted. It seems not enough that I give away my work for free. Nevertheless I appreciate support from the community, as other Emacs package developers. The support is actually helpful. To clarify, publishing my configuration would translate into quite a bit of work, requiring separation of private and public bits.

    If you like meow-visit also try imenu it is built into Emacs and can be very useful either by itself or as part of consult. consult also has a consult-mark function that can be helpful, meow kind of breaks it since it makes a lot of marks.

  • M-X Reloaded: The Second Golden Age of Emacs – (Think)
    4 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 27 Feb 2024
    Yes, you need to install Emacs. It is probably available from whatever package manager your system uses.

    I prefer Doom (https://github.com/doomemacs/doomemacs) to Spacemacs. However I haven't looked at Spacemacs for many years; perhaps it's now on par with Doom.

  • From Doom to Vanilla Emacs
    6 projects | dev.to | 22 Feb 2024
    Ever since I've started my Emacs journey it seemed like the wholy grail to have your own (vanilla!) configuration without any hard dependencies on frameworks like Doom or Spacemacs. There are plenty of dotemacs configurations ouf there which can serve as a great source of inspiration.

    Use doomemacs for a start. It really optimizes startup time and offers vast included modules as well as great package management. https://github.com/doomemacs/doomemacs/blob/master/docs/gett...

    I am a long-time Emacs user and used to maintain my own config, but I switched to Doom Emacs [1] a year ago. Doom Emacs is like a pre-packaged/pre-configured emacs distro. You still need to configure the features that you want to use, but it's a lot easier (and faster) than having to do everything from scratch, and definitely if you already have some emacs background anyway. For me, it makes the newer, more advanced, features more accessible. Since switching, I started to use Emacs more again.
