spacehammer VS doom-emacs

For certain concepts that I don't understand fully, I'm using chatgpt-shell. It is beyond fantastic and almost impossible to describe in a single post. This is, for example, just one of my use cases: When I'm writing a comment or a message to my colleague (and of course, yes, I edit just about any text in Emacs), I can select a paragraph and ask chatgpt-shell to improve it. It does, but it also shows me the diff of the changes, that is how I set it up.

I’ve been using hammerspoon for several years and it has really become integral to my workflow.

You may want to check out the extension package spacehammer[0]. It includes a bunch of workflows and shortcuts that I’ve found extremely useful.

Interestingly (for me at least), it’s authored in Fennel [1], a lisp that compiles to lua. I actually found spacehammer originally when I was working on converting my personal hammerspoon config to Fennel.

Throw in Spacehammer, and you can add a note from anywhere in the operating system.

I'm a big fan of hammerspoon, but not so much Lua. I also use emacs with Doom, where a lot of bindings are behind a 'leader key'. I found an awesome framework called 'spacehammer'[1] that fits very well into the way I like to work. It similarly hides binding behind a leader, and it's written in Fennel, a lisp that compiles to Lua. I feel like I get to expand the customizability of Emacs out to my whole system and I love it. Hammerspoon is pretty bare on its own so I suggest you check out spacehammer even if it's just a show case of the potential of hammerspoon.

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.

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

Also Doom emacs has one. https://github.com/hlissner/doom-emacs https://github.com/hlissner/doom-emacs/tree/master/modules/lang/common-lisp

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.
