From org version 9.5 org will not be distributed from Org ELPA but from
ELPA (see https://list.orgmode.org/87lfa7tc9v.fsf@gnu.org/t/). This commit makes
Spacemacs use/install org from ELPA.
Besides that, this commit removes some 'hack' that seemed to have no effect. As
org comes with Emacs `package-installed-p 'org` will always return t. Also
activating org via `configuration-layer//activate-package` seems to have no
effect.
Finally, the package is declared including a :min-version because appending only
`:location melpa` seems to have no effect (this can probably be considered a
bug).
I am almost certain that the information that was added when making org install
from Org ELPA is still relevant also for installing org from ELPA so I have just
adapted the version number from 0.104 to 0.300.
As the "org" archive has been removed, the `ert-deftest` for it can be removed
also.
Special mode and its derived mode(s) buffers were made evilified in PRs #14995
and #15050. However, special-mode is too aggressive (as 'warned' for already in
#14995); it makes it hard to overwrite its keybindings (e.g. `evil-local-set-key`,
or using `evil-evilified-state-map` on a derived map have no effect).
Therefore it makes more sense to open the buffers in motion-state instead. This
state also does not hijack the `q` keybindings as defined by special-mode (see
https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/elisp/Basic-Major-Modes.html),
although it does still hijack its `g` keybinding, but evil navigation is
considered to have higher priority than revert-buffer anyway.
Toggles are great and all, but the trouble with the various toggles for line
numbers is that they force you to remember and think about the fact that there
are variant forms of line numbers. To beginners or forgetful people the various
combinations of behavior can be unintuitive here (e.g. toggling off relative
line numbers does nothing if you are actual in visual line numbers mode). Though
it doesn't fit exactly into the normal stuff we have for toggles, due to the
complexity of this situation I think it is good to just have a way to say "line
numbers be gone!"
Wasn't sure what keybinding to use, so used a double-tap mnemonic.
If this PR gets rejected, there are a couple minor fixes that should probably be
pulled out and submitted separately.
The [quick-start](https://www.spacemacs.org/doc/QUICK_START.html) starts with
explaining that users can build their own layers. Instead it should start by
showing how easy and straightforward it is to use one of the existing layer,
then continue about the possibility of creating personal layers (the
quick-start guide is a logical place to visit first for a newcomer). It is only
a small detail, but it can make a substantial difference for people who peek
into the quick-start guide and decide if it is worth the trouble to switch to
Spacemacs (Many newcomers think that even only trying another editor, is
probably not worth it because they are already using vim).
A guide that starts explaininging that you can build your own layers in
Spacemacs that exists of a directory containing at a packages.el file, is not a
quick-start guide.
- Add `dumb-jump-xref-activate` hook to `xref-backend-functions`, which
add a fallback option, i.e. `dumb-jump`, when no better alternatives
is availabe
- Removed the obsolte interface `dumb-jump-go` from the following layers:
- clojure
- latex
- vue
- The global binding `SPC j q` requires the obsolte function
`dumb-jump-quick-look` and is therfore removed
When contributing to packages it is often handy to replace a package, already
installed and configured by some layer with a local version of the package (i.e.
a git repo). This commit adds instructions for how to achieve that.
Just like: https://github.com/emacsfodder/move-texthttps://github.com/rejeep/drag-stuff.el
also drags one or more (region) lines up or down.
But it also allows for dragging left and right (across end of lines):
- a word: changing place with the next or previous word.
- a region: moving it one character at a time to the left or right.
Added a new key binding: `SPC x .`
that opens the:
```
Drag Stuff Transient State
[k/K] up [h/H] left [q] quit
[j/J] down [l/L] right
```
The `move-text` package isn't removed, even though it isn't used anymore in
Spacemacs.
Because the `evil-unimpaired` elpa directory is generated from the local
Spacemacs `evil-unimpaired.el` file.
https://github.com/syl20bnr/spacemacs/blob/develop/layers/%2Bspacemacs/spacemacs-evil/local/evil-unimpaired/evil-unimpaired.el
Therefore the `evil-unimpaired` key bindings `[e` and `]e` still call the
`move-text` commands.
Until the `evil-unimpaired` elpa directory has been removed and regenerated by
restarting Spacemacs.
Then they will call the new `drag-stuff` commands.
I don't know if/when the `move-text` package can be removed in the future.
Sometimes it is handy to show keymaps persistently with which-key. For example,
to show navigation commands in Info-mode, gnus, eww etc. This PR implements
handy toggles and documentation for that.
Although the docs show an example, but the paragraph below seems to imply that a
package can't be fetched directly off git. Update to make it more clear that it can.
