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

Problem:
When the restart-emacs package is being updated.
The update packages restart message, still shows the (SPC q r) key binding even
though it doesn't work.
Cause:
The member function compared a string against a list of symbols.
A possible improvement:
Explain that the key binding won't work this time.
Before:
Emacs has to be restarted to actually install the new version of the packages (SPC q r).
After:
Emacs has to be restarted to actually install the new version of the packages
(SPC q r) won't work this time, because the restart-emacs package is being updated.
When ligatures are enabled globally emacs gets pined at 100% CPU. In #13967
there were some ligatures that were highlighted but enabling this only in
prog-mode so emacs dose not get pined at 100% when just enabling with
(unicode-fonts-enable-ligatures t). In #14178 it was highlighted that "\\" had
an issue in the `init.el` so this has been removed
- "//" Issues with doom mode line
- ".." "..." Issues with helm find file
- "--" Issues with magit
The eglot configuration for automatically starting a server instance when
opening a file is incorrect and thus tries to start the server twice which leads
to more problems down the line. Also the company-backend is not properly setup
so auto-completion does not work reliably when using lsp or eglot.
This fixes g (magit-refresh), in the hybrid editing style when the variable:
hybrid-style-enable-evilified-state
is: nil
Thanks marienz for reporting the issue and for suggesting to check if the
editing style supports evil navigation.

The newly added bindings had side effects for
magit. This was caused by which-keys replacement
working on bindings which are identical between
various modes.
To fix this I have changed the api to use the newly
added keymap based replacements which avoid these
issues.
As a side effect they are a ton faster as which
key does not have to compare all available bindings
everytime it opens its help window.
I have also fixed some more missing which-key
description in magit status buffer.
Currently 'helm-ag-mode-jump-other-window is bound both to RET and to C-o (its
original default binding), while 'helm-ag-mode-jump isn't bound at all (its
original default binding is RET). This commit removes our customization so that
both 'helm-ag-mode-jump-other-window and 'helm-ag-mode-jump have bindings in the
mode.
The same change is also made for the analogous helm-grep functions, for the same
reason.
This layer helps quickly sorting Dired buffers in various ways, such as
time, size, etc.
I think the underlying package is useful and worth a place in spacemacs.
It has also been promoted by Pragmatic Emacs before (albeit long time
ago): http://pragmaticemacs.com/emacs/speedy-sorting-in-dired-with-dired-quick-sort/
Disclaimer: I'm the author of dired-quick-sort package
Add key binding to evaluate the current namespace form (very useful when
starting CIDER as it loads in clojure.core to enable the cider-clojure-docs
functions to work)
Add keybinding to reload all namespaces into the REPL process
Adjusted key bindings to be lower case under `en` sub-menu.
Declared key binding prefixes.
And updated the react layer documentation:
- Mentioned the additional key bindings in the javascript layer
- Added a link to the javascript layer
* [core][keybinng] improve minor mode binding
This commit added add a new function defun spacemacs/declare-prefix-for-minor-mode
and improved spacemacs/set-leader-keys-for-minor-mode.
`which-key` package recently introduced a new api
which-key-add-keymap-based-replacements which improves perfomance and allows
prefix and namings to be stored directly in keymap. This is a great improvement.
With this new api we now make change to spacemacs/declare-prefix-for-minor-mode
to manage prefix also. For example:
(spacemacs/set-leader-keys-for-minor-mode 'lsp-mode
"=" "format"
"=b" #'lsp-format-buffer)
Before we had to use another api to bind prefix
spacemacs/declare-prefix-for-mode which only works on major-mode. As lsp-mode is
a minor mode this api causes a lot of problems to which-key performance. An
example is https://github.com/syl20bnr/spacemacs/issues/12455 which led to my
hack in https://github.com/syl20bnr/spacemacs/pull/12474.
The improved spacemacs/set-leader-keys-for-minor-mode will take care of both
prefix and key naming for the minor mode. This will allows us to have a better
set up for dynamic minor modes such as lsp-mode, tide-mode etc.
Also another api is created to make prefix for minor mode:
spacemacs/declare-prefix-for-minor-mode.
Usage:
(spacemacs/declare-prefix-for-minor-mode 'tide-mode "E" "errors")"
* [tide] improve prefix
* [lsp] improve prefix
* [core] add z$ as Evil keybinding for set-selective-display
This is a feature whose equivalent I had looked for previously and not found. I
bumped into it in [this excellent
article](https://karthinks.com/software/batteries-included-with-emacs/) which is
a survey of "batteries included" parts of Emacs. He mentions Spacemacs (in a
positive light) in the article, but the article is a lot about what you can do
_without_ distributions like Spacemacs, Doom, or Prelude. As such, this seems
like an opportunity to make Spacemacs even better---i.e. by making these
relatively unknown batteries that are already present in Emacs more discoverable
in Spacemacs.
I put it in the folding menu `z` because that fits its usecase. I used `$`
because:
* the out-of-the-box Emacs keybindings is `C-x $`.
* the menu is already fairly saturated
* I didn't know what else to base the mnemonic on because
* I'm not aware of a Vim equivalent
* The name of the Emacs function itself is nondescriptive of its behavior
I couldn't find any keybinding documentation table to add it to. Please let me
know if I missed something.
* [core] DWIM in z$ as suggested by @lebensterben
