Built on consult embark orderless selectrum/vertico.
It's been working ok. Basic features are in, let's merge it and let our community
improve it togegher :)
bind c-spc to ivy-call-and-recenter
this is the closest thing to helm follow mode in ivy world
unbin `g` key and map `U` for
for ivy-occur-mode-map and ivy-occur-grep-mode-map
This enables navigating up in the `ivy-reverse-i-search` list with `C-k`.
The same rebinding from `C-k` to `C-M-k` to kill a list entry,
is also done in the `ivy-switch-buffer`.
By default Ivy uses `find-file` which uses Emacs `abort-if-file-too-large`
function to check/warn before opening large files. That function however does
not take into account Spacemacs its `spacemacs-large-file-modes-list`. Instead
ivy should use `find-file-noselect` to skip Emacs it large file warning and let
it to Spacemacs its `spacemacs/check-large-file` function. Additionally [Emacs
tips on
comments](https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/elisp/Comment-Tips.html)
recommends to use 3 semicolons for comments that function as headings.
Helm already has spacemacs/resume-last-search-buffer bound to it and is in my
muscle memory. spacemacs/resume-last-search-buffer doesn't work with ivy, so
just use ivy-resume.
Spacemacs uses spacemacs/swiper functions that use the less sophisticated
spacemacs//counsel-current-region-or-symbol instead of ivy's native
ivy-thing-at-point function. This commit removes those spacemacs functions and
rebinds the shortcuts to their better native equivalents.
The cl package has been deprecated.
It had aliases for cl- prefixed commands without the cl- prefix.
Ex: letf or letf* instead of cl-letf or cl-letf*
On the `spacemacs-base` distribution, with the `ivy` layer.
When one tries to search with `SPC /`
(which calls `spacemacs/counsel-search`)
Then this error message is shown:
>spacemacs/counsel-search: Symbol’s function definition is void: letf*
It doesn't happen with the `helm` layer,
because it's search commands already has the `cl-` prefix.
There are also three instances of: `letf`
in the `spacemacs-editing-visual` layers functions:
- `spacemacs/toggle-centered-buffer` (`SPC w c c`)
- `spacemacs/toggle-distraction-free` (`SPC w c C`)
- `spacemacs/centered-buffer-transient-state` (`SPC w c .`)
Without the `cl-` prefix they show the error message:
>Symbol’s function definition is void: letf
and `SPC s B`
When one invokes `spacemacs/swiper-region-or-symbol` (`SPC s S`) or
`spacemacs/swiper-all-region-or-symbol` (`SPC s B`) with active visual selection
(transient-mark-mode), the selection expands over the buffer while one jumps
around with swiper. Thus I believe it is appropriate to deactivate visual
selection within the above command.
Since the mentioned commands both use identical code for getting the text to
operate on, I moved that code into a separate function.
`man` command displays output from the external program with the same name,
so it will generally fail to work on Windows.
`woman` is a pure elisp parser for manpages, so it will work on Windows. But
`woman` lacks colorizing of manpages, so we only use it as a fallback.
Helm:
SPC C l calls helm-colors
SPC h d F calls spacemacs/helm-faces
Ivy:
SPC C e calls counsel-colors-emacs
SPC C f calls counsel-colors-faces
SPC C w calls counsel-colors-web
SPC h d F calls counsel-describe-face
Thanks Miciah for the SPC h d F suggestion.
The commit 9c613b8 introduced a regression for ivy users that use ag or rg as
the search tool. It made `C-c C-e` and `F3` keybindings unavailable, and thus
making it impossible to make multi-file edits.
Partially fixes#12838
Use =counsel-ag= and =counsel-rg= when possible. They have more
optimizations, such as switching directory, the ability to turn
on and off casefold, etc. Counsel will also carry future
improvement with these two functions, and spacemacs will
automatically benefit from it.
