This make `SPC h SPC` as default binding for accessing `helm-spacemacs`,
by either A) changing all the documentation; and B) adding a deprecation
message for `SPC f e h`.
The deprecation use a warning, because if a message is used it's hidden
directly when the helm buffer is shown, making it nearly unnoticeable
for the user.
This commit merge the `CONTRIBUTING.md` and `doc/CONTRIBUTE.org` file
into a new `CONTRIBUTING.org` file. It also refactors the content to be
more organized and make its navigation more goal-oriented.
Github displays a link to the `CONTRIBUTING.*` file when people are
opening new issues or proposing new PRs. This file is important because
it is the entry-point to contributions guidelines for most of the users.
The current setup is non-optimal, even broken, as it adds a level of
indirection, and points to a contributing file that has broken
links (due to the new documentation format). The possible drawback of
the proposed solution is that I'm not sure if it is possible to include
it into the new online documentation as it is not in `doc/` folder.
The other possibility is to keep a small `CONTRIBUTING.md` file, as it
is now, pointing to the new documentation system (once online), but I'm
preferring the proposed solution for the following reasons:
- People that are willing to contribute will probably open Github
first (for forking, creating PR, etc), not the online documentation.
- It has one level of indirection less when people click on the
guidelines guide from a new issue/PR.
- `CONTRIBUTING.*` is by convention a special kind of file on github, so
it's valid reason to break the rule and not having it in the `doc/`
folder.
Prefix the "It is also recommended…" part of the Mac installation prerequisites with a note that this should be done *after* the basic install process.
This tripped me up and prevented initial installation. (The more detailed instructions and warnings added to Install since the current master will also help.)
Homebrew users expect a homebrew install to get them everything they need.
Because of this I've added a note indicating that you *also* need to do
the git clone mentioned at the top of the file.
XEmacs is packaged in many Linux distributions as "xemacs". Some may assume that "xemacs" and "emacs" have the same relationship as "gvim" and "vim", when in reality both packages have graphical support. Since I just had to correct this misunderstanding in someone, let's put it in the README to avoid it in the future.
I have seen many "I have a problem" discussions in the Gitter chat which
starts with a barrage of questions "Which OS? Which Emacs version?",
etc., so I thought it may be useful to have one function that will
generate the info to be copy-pasted into the Gitter chat and hence both
the user and others helping in the Gitter chat can jump directly to
solving the problem instead of the support volley to figure out the
setup.
Example output:

I noticed that the xkcd layer wasn't working on my windows box. After a little digging I found out that I was using the default download from the gnu emacs site which does not include the image support dlls. Hopefully this change will help people in the future in my same situation.
