Sometime in the past editorconfig layer has been deleted.
Commit: 5887344.
Related PR: #1526.
Explanation was that layer was so simple that everything you need to get
editorconfig to work is just add it to dotspacemacs-additional-packages.
However it's not quite true.
- (editorconfig-mode t) should be performed manually.
- it looks ugly in modeline.
If we don't use the default docksets, helm-dash will not work smoothly
unless we set the `dash-helm-dash-docset-path' variable when we import
the dash layer(actually, the default dash docset path is always
"~/Library/Application Support/Dash/DocSets").
problem: currently, viewing a file at a specific branch/commit, requires one to
type the magit-find-file command, at the M-x prompt
solution: SPC g f f is available and consistent with the SPC f f key binding
If you install your node bins in places outside of the system path, you
need to add those locations to the exec path before packages are loaded
or else spacemacs won't recognize them as existing when it initializes
the layers.
The purpose of this PR is to set the default for ⌘ to `hyper' and to provide the
function `kbd-mac-command` to replace `kbd' when defining keybindings for ⌘ in
case someone decides to explicitly set osx-command-as to `super' or `alt'.
There are problems setting osx-command-as to `alt' and `super',
so we use `hyper' as a default instead because, for example:
- Using `alt': Command-x or Command-m inserts, respectively: × µ
- Using `super': Control-Command-f produces keycode: <C-s-268632078>
Setting to `hyper' seems to avoid both types of the above problems.
Also, while it is possible, it is not recommended to set to `meta'
since standard OSX shortcuts would overshadow important keys such
as M-x.
Two other small changes include:
- Commenting out the code that defines <C-s-268632078> (C-s-f) since it is
unnecessary if we use `hyper' as the default; and if we really want to use
`super' then we should figure out how to solve the weird keycode issue.
- add keybinding for ⌘` (Command-backtick) to `other-window'.
Emacs usually swallows this keystroke, so other-window basically restores
the default behavior that most Mac OSX users would expect.
At the moment a Quelpa recipe like `(recipe :fetcher local)` is being translated
to something like
`(recipe :fetcher file :path "my-layer/local/my-pkg/my-pkg.el")`. So we can
build simple single-file local packages.
This commit changes it to translate to the package directory instead of exact lisp
file, so we can build multi-file local packages. Thus, the above example will be
translated to `(recipe :fetcher file :path "my-layer/local/my-pkg")`.
