Make rainbow-identifiers not colorize special operators and macros, so they
always visually stand out. Rationale behind this change is that special
operators and macros in Lisp may be considered "syntax" elements, so it makes
sense to have them visually distinguished at all times.
The helpful layer delivers more sophisticated help buffers,
at least for elisp and emacs specific objects. Therefore
it makes sense to replace the existing help functions for
these bindings silently if this layer is loaded.
Two `SPC h SPC` toggles were missing their documentation:
- Nameless
- Minibuffer System Monitor (the symon package)
Now they match the other entries by showing:
- current state
- name (this was only shown before)
- documentation
- key binding (only minibuffer-system-monitor shows a key binding)
The nameless key binding `SPC m T n` only works in emacs-lisp-mode. It's key
binding might need to be described another way.
The issue was that `flycheck-package` explicitly
activated `flycheck-pos-tip-mode` however
this package is owned by `syntax checking layer`
and should only be activated by it directly.
For those with MELPA on their mind. It's easier to work when packaging errors
are reported on the fly, and we don't even have `package-lint` integration for
occasional checkups yet.
It adds no unnecessary verbosity as it is only triggered by `Package-Requires`
and `Package-Version` headers.
problem:
some layer packages lists have the open and closing parentheses on the same line
as the first and last listed package, but most seem to have them on a separate
lines.
solution:
put the open and close parentheses on separate lines, except for lists with only
a single package, they are written on the same line as the variable name and
parentheses.
fix the lists indentation
Replace push with add-to-list in layer init functions and related code.
Modify spacemacs|add-toggle to check for and update an existing toggle in
spacemacs-toggles and only create a new toggle if none already existed.
Replace a conditional push onto erc-packages with use of :toggle.
When initializing which-key, set which-key-replacement-alist to its default
or customized setting before adding all the Spacemacs replacements. We
want to keep the stock replacements but avoid adding duplicates of the
Spacemacs replacements.
Replace the emacs-lisp-mode-hook lambda with a named function to avoid
adding duplicate hooks (which can add duplicate definitions of the
evil-surround pair).
This reverts commit 29c78ce841 and all other fixes
that have been made afterwards.
The motivation is that use-package is seen by many as a replacement for
`require`. Is use-package always defer the loading of packages then is breaks
this use case, this does not respect POLA so even if it was making Spacemacs
loading faster (up to 3s faster on some startup on my machine) we just cannot
use it, it would be irresponsible. Spacemacs should be easy to use, loading
performance will come with time but it is not a priority.
Delete layer evil-cleverparens and move the package to spacemacs-evil layer.
The feature is called "Safe structurral editing" for lisp dialects. Support for
it is added via pre-init functions in each of the concerned layer and proper
documentation is added to their README.org files.
This also removes the recently added package evil-smartparens. The goal is
to choose the best package for evil safe structural editing. For now we use
evil-cleverparens as we supported it first, if evil-smartparens is shown to be
a better package we will be able to switch to it.
Convention for major mode specific toggles is to put them under SPC m T prefix.
Used `n` instead of `>` because there is no unicode squared symbol with `>`.
Also use the new generated function to register the hooks.
- Change nameless prefix to > instead of default :
- Change toggle to SPC m >
- Set nameless separator to nil in order to make it work with any type or separator
- Add diminish unicode ⧁
- Define some default global aliases for Spacemacs source code
- Rename layer variable emacs-lisp-nameless-mode to emacs-lisp-hide-namespace-prefix
- Make variable nameless-current-name safe as a local variable for string values
- Set nameless prefix for core-configuration-layer.el
Dolists for `spacemacs/set-leader-keys-for-major-mode' were using
'emacs-lisp-mode instead of the loop variable 'mode'. Hopefully using the loop
variable was the intention.
I also updated the redundant bindings for `edebug-mode-map' and
`edebug-eval-mode-map' to use `dolist'. It probably makes more sense to put the
whole thing after :bindings rather than around it, but I wasn't sure if that
might break something.
spacemacs/add-flycheck-hook was not really hooking anything, change the name
to better reflect what it does.
Also changed the push for a add-to-list to avoid duplicates.
As it make evil to error when the delq form is written the customize file,
instead we call the set method manually and it works fine.
Would be better and more future proof to curry the set function into a named
function of 0 arity for evil-intercept-maps custom setting.
Enabling a company backend for a specific mode was a tedious tasks with code
scattered at different locations, one for local variable definitions, one for
company hook function definitions and another where the backends were pushed to
the local variables (which was problematic, since we ended up pushing the same
backends over and over again with `SPC f e R`, pushes have been replaced by
add-to-list calls in the new macro).
All these steps are now put together at one place with the new macro
spacemacs|add-company-backends, check its docstring for more info on its
arguments.
This macro also allows to define arbitrary buffer local variables to tune
company for specific modes (similar to layer variables via a keyword :variables)
The code related to company backends management has been moved to the
auto-completion layer in the funcs.el file. A nice side effect of this move is
that it enforces correct encapsulation of company backends related code. We can
now easily detect if there is some configuration leakage when the
auto-completion layer is not used. But we loose macro expansion at file loading
time (not sue it is a big concern though).
The function spacemacs|enable-auto-complete was never used so it has been
deleted which led to the deletion of the now empty file core-auto-completion.el.
The example in LAYERS.org regarding auto-completion is now out of date and has
been deleted. An example to setup auto-completion is provided in the README.org
file of the auto-completion layer.
Important evil advices for eval-last-sexp were removed for smartparens users,
it made eval-last-sexp not working correctly in normal state by evaluating the
sexp before the evil cursor and it was impossible to evaluate an sexp when the
cursor was on the last character of a line.
Also add SPC m e C which will execute the first defun or setq sexp encountered
before point.
Hook semantic is to be used with run-hooks API and run all hooks
sequentially, jump list semantic is different since the running
functions are not guaranteed to be executed so we prefer using regular
list API to manage jump-lists.
SPC j F and SPC j V don't fit the SPC j prefix because they require
the thing under point to be an Emacs lisp thing, which means that these
bindings should be major mode specific.
To replace them and accordingly to the convention the key bindings
SPC m g G in Emacs Lisp buffers has been added to go to definition
in other window.
SPC j f and SPC j v (minus letters) don't require the current buffer
to be Emacs Lisp and thus I only updated the documentation about them
mentioning that they're about Emacs Lisp variables and functions.
