dotfiles VS burly.el

Huh, nice, I found something similar a while back which I've been using quite a lot. What I really like about this one is that it can also monitor and be quietly killed by sending eof on stdin. Let's me use the clipboard in pipelines where I start the script, pipe into curl with config set to - and then just copy urls to my clipboard. When I'm done hit C-d to send EOF and all of them download at once.

I took some ideas for my config from this guy, one thing i liked was no plugins. His dotfiles are kinda weird but you can find the tmux stuff here, see .config.sh for how everything is installed.

Cool, here's mine. Which I use from this shell function which depends on this and this.

This directory is where I keep my mail related dotfiles. I use pass to keep my login passwords gpg encrypted and isync/mbsync to connect to remote accounts and fetch the mail to a local directory (my mbsyncrc file has 3 atm. Ones a personal server and 2 are gmail). The script cmds/mail-sync is what I use to fetch and tag new mail. Mail management itself is taken care of with notmuch (that also comes with its own emacs major mode).

Neat. I've got something similar written as a shell script, which I use with fzf. It should work with buku, Firefox and chromium. But I've only hardwired the paths for Linux. It should be easy to add MacOS or windows paths but I'm too lazy to change platform so that I can experiment.

Here.

burly.el by u/alphapapa - might be an easier way to approach the current-window-configuration/set-window-configuration that Sacha has implemented

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).

Well, that is essentially what Burly does: https://github.com/alphapapa/burly.el

Install https://github.com/alphapapa/burly.el

These features are especially useful with Burly: https://github.com/alphapapa/burly.el Because Burly can save and restore those kinds of windows, so you need not recreate them manually.

How does it compare to packages like burly, which (to my understanding) provide similar features?

I'm not sure exactly what you're looking for, but take a look at this: https://github.com/alphapapa/burly.el

I think you want "window configurations", which can be saved into registers. You might try tab-bar-mode for cycling through them. Or there's also https://github.com/alphapapa/burly.el/ . (I'd like something similar but haven't found something that matches what I want)

desktop is not a great solution for restoring buffers, because it generally only works for file-backed buffers. Instead, I wrote Burly to restore buffers, windows, and frames in mode-specific ways, on-demand using Emacs bookmarks. This is much more flexible and powerful than similar functionality in desktop.
