13 and 10.0 are visually the same, because:
- Integer specifies the pixel size.
- Floating-point specifies the point size.
Using a default floating-point size has two benefits:
- It's clear that the font size can be changed by floating-point values.
- There won't be an unpleasant surprise that `13` and `13.0` are different
sizes. For example to make the font slightly larger or smaller than `13`.
Then `10.0` has to be found first by trial and error.
Remove mention of powerline-scale property from the
.spacemacs.template font variable comment.
Update the changelog.develop entry for the mode line
separator scale when the utf-8 separator is used.
Emacs 26 added built-in support for line numbers, relative line numbers, and
visual line numbers. Spacemacs supports only absolute and relative, but there is
no way to access the visual mode. It's hard to get around this, since Spacemacs
abstracts line numbers to a reasonably high degree.
Arguably, `visual` is much more useful than `relative` as a display type. Visual
line numbers are like relative line numbers, but only lines that are actually
showing are counted. This means:
1. Hidden lines are not counted. If a large amount of text is folded, the line
numbers won't jump from "10" to "546". This is particularly useful in
buffers like `magit-status`, where a large amount of information is folded
by default.
2. Lines that are wrapped are counted as multiple lines, since they're being
displayed as multiple lines in the editor. Each visual line will be
numbered - unlike `relative`, where the entire thing is numbered... Once.
With standard relative line numbers, you can't actually navigate using the line
numbers in the sidebar as soon as folded or wrapped lines are introduced. Since
this is one of the main use cases for relative line numbers, this is a big
problem.
Visual mode fixes that problem. Every line that's being displayed is labelled.
Numbers always correspond to the actual number of lines you'd need to navigate
to reach that line.
This commit extends Spacemacs' line number interface to provide visual line
number support.
New var: dotspacemacs-new-empty-buffer-major-mode
Set to a symbol naming a mode (e.g. 'text-mode) to apply that major mode to any
buffers newly created in Spacemacs by spacemacs/new-empty-buffer.
Fixes#12382.
`SPC f e f` key binding is no more present, so moved that table entry to
`SPC h f` in DOCUMENTATION.org.
corrected description of paste transient-state behavior.
Lexical binding is easier to reason about and it's generally recommended for new code. It's faster too.
Dynamic scoping can lead to tricky situations. Example: https://emacs.stackexchange.com/questions/10394/scope-in-lambda
This probably won't break existing code. Most people don't even know the default is dynamic binding.

This allows to navigate between params using the '{' and '}' paragraph movements
and makes it clearer wether description is for the variable below or above.
Since we have now a variable for the mode-line theme, it makes sense to move
the scaling of the mode-line to this variable. Thus the property
=:powerline-scale= of variable dotspacemacs-default-font has been removed and
it is replace by the property =:separator-scale= used in the variable
=dotspacemacs-mode-line-theme=.
This commit also adds a the property =:sperator= for the variable
=dotspacemacs-mode-line-theme= which allows to set the separator type.
Example of the final result:
dotspacemacs-mode-line-theme '(all-the-icons
:separator cup
:separator-scale 1.5)
Documentation has been updated to reflect the changes.
New layer variable `dotspacemacs-mode-line-themes`:
Set the theme for the Spaceline. Supported themes are `spacemacs',
`all-the-icons', `custom', `vim-powerline' and `vanilla'. The first three
are spaceline themes. `vanilla' is default Emacs mode-line. `custom' is a
user defined themes, refer to the DOCUMENTATION.org for more info on how
to create your own spaceline theme."
See DOCUMENTATION.org changes for more info.
This commit adds support for `spaceline-all-the-icons` package.
If non-nil then Spacelpa repository is the primary source to install
a locked version of packages. If nil then Spacemacs will install the lastest
version of packages from MELPA. (default nil)
The default value will be true when we bust all the major bugs.
New dotfile variable dotspacemacs-verify-spacelpa-archives
Default value is nil for now, users wanting to help testing this feature can
set it to t and delete the directory ~/.emacs.d/.cache/stable-elpa and restart
Emacs to download the Spacelpa archive and verify it.
Update function configuration-layer/stable-elpa-download-tarball to download
signature files as well.
Update function configuration-layer//stable-elpa-untar-archive to verify the
downloaded archive using epg library.
Example of signature files can be found here:
https://github.com/syl20bnr/spacelpa/releases/tag/v0.300
Set it to emacs-version as it is the saner defaults here. When updating the
version of emacs, packages should be byte-recompiled. Thus this is safer to
isolate each package by emacs-version.
