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.
evil-set-initial-state is safer than manually adding and deleting from
the lists, because it knows about all available states and ensures that
the mode only shows up in one list. If it is in multiple list the
initial state depends on which is checked first, which we don't want.
I've been introducing tons of people to Spacemacs, and most of them
always think that having to read documentation in how to add a layer is
too much.
I made this modification to make it easier to install layers.
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.
The current way to highlight TODOs is `spacemacs/highlight-TODO-words`
which is a spacemacs' hard-coded function.
This commit changes it for the `hl-todo` package. This imply:
- More keywords are supported out of the box.
- Keywords are associated to faces, so they are shown in different
colors.
- Keywords are stored with their faces in a list, so it's easier for
users to add their own keywords and faces (as contrary to a regexp).
- It is possible to disable highlighting by simply excluding the
package.
This pre-command-hook translates the special key to the corresponding
emacs function key. This effects only happens in terminal, this hook is
a no-op in GUI.
By doing this we attempt to bring more consistency between the GUI
and the terminal regarding TAB and RET keys.
spacemacs/set-key
spacemacs/set-key-for-state
These functions find normalized keys which should handle as sanely as
possible the GUI and the terminal.
See docstring of spacemacs//normalize-key for more info.
This commit changes:
<leader> a p from proced to list-processes
<leader> a P from paradox-list-packages to proced
and <leader> a k to paradox-list-packages.
- Default projectile settings are to disable caching when indexing
method is `alien. So setting the indexing method should be enough.
- On windows we keep the 'native method unless find is found
I found it annoying to have to re-navigate to the *compilation* window
and close it after every time I compile with `SPC p c`.
This patch adds a binding to make closing this window fast and easy.
Also a little bit of clean up.
- Rename micro-states to "layouts"
- Rename some functions to include "layout" instead of "perspective"
- cleanup variables
- move functions to funcs.el
- move package specific stuff to post-init functions
- changes key bindings
- micro-state documentation rewrite
- change format of the layouts line in the micro-state doc
- defer loading of persp-mode which loads with `SPC l`
- always display the spacemacs home buffer with no switch
- various fixes
- various new bugs :-)
I feel that it is not needed because it makes not a lot of sense to
have it non global since it is a dotfile variable.
Also remove ' from the docstring for consistency.
`global-linum-mode` is making line numbers appearing in `*spacemacs*`
and `helm` buffers, what is annoying.
This change make the linum `SPC t n` toggle buffer-local, and add a
customization variable in `.spacemacs` to enable line numbers globally.
«Globally» here as to be understood as «in `prog-mode` and `text-mode`».
Add :status option and manage :on and :off manually. Without :status
the message is wrong (always says enabled), and with :status we need an
explicit :on and :off, because otherwise the toggle would always disable
the flag.
Not sure what’s going on here, but this one works correctly now.
Close#3433.
`evil-repeat` repeat the last action, but ignore calls to `write-file`
or `evil-write`. `spacemacs/write-file` is a wrapper around those two
function, so it should be ignored to.
In help buffers, TAB in emacs state allows you to jump through the
links. This allows for the same behavior in motion state. This is very
useful for jumping to function definitions.
This change add a `switch-to-scratch-buffer` function allowing to – you
guessed it – switch to the `*scratch*` buffer, taking care of creating
it if necessary. The function is bind to `SPC b s`, `b` as it concerns
buffers, and `s` for `scratch`.
Correct a bug in helm-spacemacs: Whenever a function was needing the
FAQ's candidates in helm-spacemancs (`SPC f e h` and `SPC f e f`), the
`FAQ.org` file was open in a buffer and not closed. This commit corrects
this by loading the content of `FAQ.org` in a temp buffer and switch it
to `org-mode` in order to get the candidates.
Emacs provides a `count-words-region' which is badly named as it counts
not only words, but also characters and lines. The current keybinding
for this function `SPC x w c' implies it's referring to words only. The
new mapping `SPC x c` is more coherent since it means counting text,
whether it is characters, words or lines. An alias `count-region` is
created to be less confusing in which-key description.
`SPC x w c` being free, `spacemacs/count-words-analysis` is remapped to
it instead of `SPC x w C` to save one keystroke.
The `spacemacs/count-words-analysis' function displays results with the
default elisp formatting of associative list. This change improves it by
changing the format to a more human-readable form, and also by ordering
results by frequencies first, and then alphabetically in case of tie.
Add the `FAQ.org` file as a source in helm-spacemacs (`SPC f e h`).
Define a new keybinding for looking directly inside the FAQ with helm:
`SPC f e f`.
With help from TheBB, thanks!
Import TheBB configuration into Spacemacs and add `C-S-h` to replace
redefined `C-h` binidng.
Also remove the go up a directory behavior on backspace, now backspace
is a regular backspace.
