  • How can I temporarily bypass helm and put free text
    2 projects | /r/emacs | 9 Jun 2023
    In my Helm, I have to actively choose the candidate to confirm it. So I can type in both paths that are shorter or longer then existing ones. I even made a video to demonstrate it, the thread was relatively recently up I think. My Helm setup is here it if helps you, find Helm in the list of packages.
  • Custom-built Emacs vs Pre-built Emacs benchmarks (v30.0.50) and current Emacs performance on Windows
    2 projects | /r/emacs | 28 Apr 2023
    When all deps are installed,my config is over 200 packages. On my Arch Linux desktop I built in 2016, with i7 4.6k (haswell) it starts ~0.7 secs, but init time will be anything between 0.5 ~ 0.8 secs, i guess depending on what system does. So all things same, init time will vary.
  • org-SUPER-sparse-tree?
    3 projects | /r/emacs | 20 Apr 2023
    I am using it in my literate org-config. If you scroll down, there is a big list of packages, and I have done a small wrapper around helm-imenu, to jump to a package configuration. Looks like this.
  • Is there a package or something for code completion in org mode files for src blocks?
    3 projects | /r/emacs | 20 Apr 2023
    That does not work for completions, at least not for me. It works for keymaps, so you can have mode specific (or really any) keymap in src blocks. I have been using his method myself in my init file generator for quite a while now. If you (or anyone) knows/have an idea how to expand it for completions and eldoc, I would be really happy to hear.
  • ranger.el or dirvish?
    3 projects | /r/emacs | 7 Apr 2023
    I don't know what if it is more robust but I use more or less plain dired with just some options turned on to make it less noisy to look at, but I don't "manage" my files so much to be honest. I do use some extras from dired-hacks, and my own dired-auto-readme, but that is about it. You can check my setup if you wish, look at "dired" under packages and in Lisp folder for "dired-extras.el".
  • Not sure how to integrate autoloads into my Emacs config
    2 projects | /r/emacs | 30 Mar 2023
    I personally put all custom lisp in a special directory and scrape autoloads myself. If you are curious, you can check under "generator", functions generate-autoloads and collect-autoloads, but there is nothing special, just plain text search and copy-paste programmatically. I don't recommend to use it though.
  • Org Mode Gripes
    6 projects | /r/emacs | 13 Feb 2023
    There is an interesting blog-post by J. Kitchin which I have used in my init file. I wonder if that idea could be developed further.
  • What packages do I need to for the best elisp editing environment?
    8 projects | /r/emacs | 6 Jan 2023
    I find C-c l easier to type than C-x C-e for example, and I find it sometimes useful to put a cursor between two forms and then C-c l and C-c n. Most of those functions are built-in, but some are here if you are interested.
  • Actually utilizing `next-buffer` and `previous-buffer` makes emacs much nicer to use
    2 projects | /r/emacs | 23 Oct 2022
    Here is a thread I made here not so long time ago where you can pick few useful by both other people and me, or if you prefer my collection from those in a file you can download.
  • What is the "emacs" package/feature?
    2 projects | /r/emacs | 21 Oct 2022
    It is not silly, it let's one gather all loose config piece into one-spot instead of having them scattered around in your init file and you can also use some of use-package features to control when the code is executed, syntax for defining keys etc. It let's one create more structured code. I don't know, at least I think so, I don't use use-package since few years back, so I maybe wrong :-). Of course you don't need to do so, and with discipline you can achieve very nice structure, and there are other way too as well.
