Emacs Advent Calendar 7: ordeless, embark 1.0 and some bric-a-brac
embark. The one I always struggle to explain, so instead go read u/karthink's wonderful blog post about it! Prodded by u/minad-emacs, I just released version 1.0! 🎉

(void-variable string-width) error by consult-buffer
There seems to be some problem with straight not correctly installing or updating compat. See these issues on Marginalia and Embark where straight seems to not install Compat.

I Use My Mouse
Surfingkeys looks pretty similar (though I have yet to try it); I'm just describing the experience poorly. You press f, little labels show up on the links (I called this "listing the links"), and you then press the keys on the label (the "select from" part). Probably me using the open in new tab command F (as opposed to open in current tab command f) did not help.
Not saying it's a bad experience. I find it's quite nice if I'm currently looking at the correct link so I can get the letters from the label easily.
It's just a different paradigm. If I didn't know what a link was, I wouldn't know that I could press f to open the link selection. This means I can't select a link unless I had a "select unknown" button, and then use that to inspect it.
Select unknown can be done with the keyboard: Emacs' embark[^1] is a good example of it. You use search/arrows to go to an interesting piece of text (e.g something underlined), run embark, and it lists all the potential things you can do with it (e.g open in external browser, or download an archived copy). It's just that keyboard UIs do not tend to be geared around it.
That though is the sort of thing the mouse is good at: you see something interesting, you prod it to see what you can do with it.
Say you saw a phrase you didn't understand in the browser. Currently, with a mouse you'd highlight it, right click, and then select the search with search engine option. With keyboard you'd open the search engine, and enter the phrase. Both get you to the same place.
Now if we extend the mouse to have a "I would like to know idioms better" option. You could just select the phrase, right click, and a definition could be there waiting for you next to the context menu. It could even be there on hover.
With the keyboard though, you'd generally run an "I would like to know idioms better" command. This would then ask you which idiom on the page would you like to understand. You then select it, and presto. A faster version could potentially have idiom meanings show up the moment you ran the command by a similar hover effect (or just listing all discovered idioms in a popup etc).
One of the differences here though is that from the mouse you still have a list of actions on the text open, so maybe if you liked the definition you could then copy the phrase.
This certainly could be done from the keyboard UI: just have it list other applicable commands that could be run on the selection generated from the command that searched for phrases. No reason why it could not then spawn something asking if you wanted to "(c)opy, c(u)t" etc like the context menu.
But that is only visible because there was a phrase you didn't know. If you didn't know that there was a command to define phrases, you wouldn't have found out. In theory you could have commands register everything they could act on, and then have another command let the user select an interactive thing, and list the commands that registered for it. I think that would be overwhelming though, as something like a dictionary command would register for every word.
Ultimately the mouse is just different then the keyboard, and I think that discarding it because you majorily use a keyboard is missing the interesting potential of having a tool that can interrogate arbitrary things on your screen.

[ANN] Kele: Snappy Kubernetes cluster management in Emacs
It also comes with “batteries included,” containing several integrations with noteworthy packages, in particularEmbark, that you can take advantage of for nimbly interacting with your configs and clusters.

Is it possible to use imenu (or ideally imenu-anywhere) as an xref backend?
I have a cheap way to do this involving Embark and Consult: use consult-imenu as an embark action on an identifier. (You need consult-imenu here because it flattens the imenu hierarchy). Say you bind embark-act to C-., then you can put point on an identifier and type C-. C i and embark will run consult-imenu for you, type the identifier at the minibuffer prompt automatically, and if there is a single matching item, press RET for you too. (If more than one item matches, then you must select among them and press RET.)

My Experience With Emacs and the Eventual Regression to VSCode
I use embark and one of the options it gives on find-file is to open it via sudo (C-. s for me, and I think that's default bindings). So I would browse to the host at /ssh::/etc/foo/bar.conf and rather than just opening it hit C-. s.

Selectrum now deprecated in favor of Vertico
I dunno—I like how Vertico+Counsel feel. I'm not sure how good the support for Orderless and Embark are in Ivy, but I really like how those packages compose so nicely with the Vertico+Consult ecosystem.

org-cc: Custom completions for Org (WIP)
IV) Might there be a way to implement changing the sort order while the completing-read prompt is active? Or might it be a good idea to abandon completing-read completely for this and other features, like live editing? I am aware that some of this can be accomplished with Embark. Org tables and some other Emacs table libraries also go some way in this direction. The dream would be to have citar-like dynamic table construction + filtering + selection and Excel-like sorting + editing. Is anyone aware of any other package that goes into this direction?

Completion command for common file moving/copying commands
Yes, Helm. Probably others like Embark.

Personal Knowledge Management Graph Visualization Tools for Neovim
I recently came across this software called org-roam-ui, a tool to visualize Org Roam's Zettelkasten in a graphical way. is there something like that for neovim? I use vimwiki as my PKM and was wondering if any of you know of any tool similar to org-roam-ui that works well with neovim, specifically with Markdown files, for visualizing one's PKM system.

Thank you, for mentioning these interesting projects. Also, I found org-roam-ui, I'm gonna study their code to try to understand how they did it.

I cannot get EmacSQL to work
I did a quick look for any relevant issues on their repo, but I couldn’t find anything I’m afraid. Might be worth raising an issue.

how can I achieve mediawiki like categories and subcategories for note making in org mode?
Oh, in that case you can use tags in Org Roam as well. https://github.com/org-roam/org-roam Along with https://github.com/org-roam/org-roam-ui

Package to display org headings spatially?
org-roam-ui is very effective for this.

How would you go about using Org Mode for Math Notes?
Turn your notes atomic (using Zettelkasten method) using Org Roam. This is a different system of note taking implemented in Emacs and Org mode. It focuses on making small notes and linking them together. This can be thought of as a mind map and you can actually see the full mind map using Org Roam UI in your browser.

What lightweight open-source word processor, task, and data management tool(s) for personal use would you advise?
