`dotspacemacs-startup-lists` by default shows a number of recent files and
projects as two separate lists. If I've been working with a lot of files in one
project, then all the recent files are from one project, even if I set `recents`
to a large amount like 24. This change allows me to see the recent files by
project. Suppose, for example, I have a `vegetables` project and a `fruit`
project, and set `dotspacemacs-startup-lists` to `(recents-by-file . (2 . 3))`.
In the home buffer I will see something like:
~/vegetables
lettuce.el
squash.el
tomatoes.el
~/fruit
apple.py
orange.py
banana.py
Even though only a subpath is displayed for each file, the click functionality
still works---i.e. the link still has the full path under the covers.
I originally asked a [question](https://emacs.stackexchange.com/q/62524/19069)
on Emacs StackExchange to see if there were any pointers or if this was already
a solved problem. After several days of receiving no answers, and having a
little time to poke at it, I figured I'd implement it myself.
What this does not cover: mixing recent files totally outside projects into this
list. Today they are just filtered out. That is a usecase I didn't need so I
figured that could be done in a subsequent pass if somebody wanted it.
problem:
key bindings that use the winum package,
don't work in the spacemacs-base distribution.
for example in the buffer transient state: SPC b .
{number}, C-{number} or M-{number}
shows messages like these:
Wrong type argument: commandp, winum-select-window-1
Symbol’s function definition is void: winum-get-window-by-number
cause:
the winum package is loaded in the spacemacs-navigation layer,
but the layer isn't used in the spacemacs-base distribution.
solution:
show the message:
This command requires the winum package,
winum is part of the spacemacs-navigation layer.
* First working pass
- Runs prettier on save when in ruby-mode.
- Adds `node_modules/.bin/` to local `exec-path`
- This means project-local `prettier` executables are preferred
* Making ruby layer prettier formatting configurable
- Adds a variable to control whether prettier is used to format-on-save.
- Documents use, configuration, and keybindings in the README
* Add to CHANGELOG.develop
* Delete spurious comment
* Use prettier as a dependency only when config variable is present
I do not see any reason why the keybinding to enter org-agenda should not be on
`. ,`. Therefore I propose here to make that keybinding consistent with the
keybindings for entering transient states in most/all other modes
Changes:
- Added two configuration variables for the mu4e layer to control mu4e-org
integration.
- Optionally configures mu4e compose mode to support Org-mode syntax.
- Improves lazy-loading of relevant features. E.g. loading org-mode does not
automatically trigger loading of mu4e.
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.
problem:
The spacemacs-completion layer defines the variable:
helm-use-fuzzy
But the spacemacs-base distribution doesn't use the
spacemacs-completion layer by default.
helm-use-fuzzy is used in the helm layer.
When a helm buffer is opened, for example: `SPC SPC`
Then a warnings buffer opens:
>Error (use-package): helm/:config: Symbol’s value as variable is void: helm-use-fuzzy
solution:
Make sure that helm-use-fuzzy is bound and true.
problem:
The Magit w (apply patches) arguments are not remembered between sessions.
cause:
Magit reads the transient files:
history.el, levels.el, and values.el
before Spacemacs has redirected them to the .cache directory.
solution:
Redirect the files before magit reads them.
problem:
Pressing: u
in the spacemacs-base distribution, shows:
evil-undo: Symbol’s function definition is void: undo-tree-undo
cause:
The evil undo system is setup as: undo-tree
but undo-tree is loaded in the spacemacs-editing layer,
and the layer isn't used by default in the spacemacs-base distribution.
solution:
Set the evil undo system to undo-tree when the undo-tree package is used.
Now if undo-tree isn't setup, then:
- u uses the default Emacs undo command.
- C-r says: Customize ‘evil-undo-system’ for redo functionality.
problem:
Reloading the configuration: SPC f e R
after changing the variable: dotspacemacs-fullscreen-at-startup
to: t
changes Emacs into fullscreen mode.
solution:
Only check the variable and change to fullscreen mode on startup,
before Spacemacs has been initialized.
Fixes: Reloading config with fullscreen-at-startup t (in macOS) toggles fullscreen mode #13073
problem:
The Treemacs layer is unable to find python 3 in Windows.
cause:
The Treemacs layer looks for "python3", but the executable is called
"python.exe" in Windows.
solution:
Let Treemacs check for python 3 upstream, it has a better method for finding the
python 3 executable in Windows.
Similar to the keybindings added to the info layer in PR #14188, I here propose to add the same
keybindings to the epub layer. These J/K keybindings are currently undefined in the epub
layer. These keybindings are used in the Zathura document reader, they are very
convenient and I guess they feel very natural and are preferred over d/u by most people.
Standard LSP support auto-activates the server
if LSP layer is loaded. I have now added instructions
to explicitly disable this behaviour if someone wants
to work in LSP in one layer but only with CIDER in
clojure.
Spacemacs lacks a keybinding alternative to the most natural way of scrolling
Info pages (i.e. SPC) in vanilla emacs.
Anyway, this commit adds J/K to scroll most naturally through info pages.
Currently, in Info-mode, a keybinding for J is not defined while K is bound to
evil-lookup.
Issue #2828 already adresses the inconsistent experience, and in my opinion this
can and should be improved as navigating Info pages is a very crucial part of
using Emacs.
Personally I have bound J/K to scroll page up/down in buffers/pdf/djvu/doc-view,
which I inherited from using the zathura pdf reader, and I think this is a better
default than the default vim alternatives.
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
* LaTeX: improved i18n support and documentation
- Added a new layer config variable `latex-build-engine`, a thin wrapper of
`TeX-engine`:
- For better support of non-european character set rendering, `xetex` is
chosen when it's found on PATH, and when eithe `chinese` or `japanese`
layer is enabled
- Added a new layer config variable `latex-enable-preview`:
- When non-nil, `auto-revert-mode` is added to `doc-view-mode-hook`
- Previously this is described in documentation but requires users to set it
manually
- Documentation:
- Added a section that lists are layer config variables
- Improved all documentation examples, s.t. they are valid elisp forms to be
evaluated directly
- Improved the section on backend:
- Emphsized that LSP layer is always preferred
- Provided information on installing the language server
- Added the default value for layer config variable, `latex-nofil-env`
* minor edits
- Updated CHANGELOG.develop
- Renamed `latex-enable-preview` to `latex-refresh-preview`
- Replaced a fuzzy intra-link in documentation with a proper link
