Unfortunately spacemacs is not designed for installation
at use-package call time.
For use-package to be called a package must already be installed,
so I will continue on the initial plan, that is providing the
quelpa recipe at the <layer>-packages list level.
This is no bigdeal, this is basically moving :quelpa from
use-package to <layer>-packages variables.
Moreover it makes more sense to define package property at
declaration time instead of initialization (at least in spacemacs
world where installation is decoupled from configuration).
This has a benefit of not assuming that the user .emacs.d/ is in the
user home directory. Should continue to work as expected when this is
the case, but you could also start a fresh Emacs session like
so (assumes OSX):
open -a Emacs.app -n --args -q -l /path/to/emacs.d/init.el
So you don't have to muddle with symlinking your ~/.emacs.d or replacing
it with another just to try Spacemacs (or any other config). Note, that
this won't work with `after-init-hook` which doesn't appear to run when
Emacs is run with -q flag. As a result the `dotspacemacs/config` in your
.spacemacs won't run.
`tooltip-use-echo-area' is obsolete since 24.1; disabling `tooltip-mode'
achieves similar effect, and Tooltip mode has already been disabled in the
current code. Since Spacemacs supports Emacs 24.3 and 24.4,
`tooltip-use-echo-area' usage can be removed safely.
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:

Instead of opening the file for the bookmark, use the bookmark-jump
function to properly jump to the file and location in the file. Also
show the bookmark name and the filename in the list.
Fixessyl20bnr/spacemacs#2431
So if called using the universal argument or with a parameter yes is
assumed to the question to update packages. Useful for calling Emacs
in batch mode to update Spacemacs.
Works with magit-next for now.
Tests to update and evilify functions robustness need to be improved.
Does not work 100% with magit-mode-map because it is created with
`make-keymap` and not `make-sparse-keymap` and `map-keymap` does not
seem to work with `make-keymap`.
Currently, pressing TAB does not move to next widget. Similarly,
pressing RET does not run the button at point. Use `kbd` function to
properly convert to internal key representation in Emacs that is usable
in both GUI and terminal.
Also move the key bindings to spacemacs/keybindings.el since it's a more
suitable place.
- Re-enable
- Move all autosave files to spacemacs-cache-directory
- Allow Auto-saving directly on current buffer.
- Add option to customize.
- Update .spacemacs template.
bookmark-all-names returns a list of names, but
spacemacs-buffer//insert-file-list expect a list of filenames.
Shortcut definitions seems to be a mix of two approaches/commits.
Removed the unused bits.
Refactor spacemacs/open-file to spacemacs/view-org-file to correctly
reflect its functionality. In Emacs, view means read-only. Make the
anchor-text optional so we can omit when not needed. Also add
expand-scope that can be either 'subtree or 'all to open a tree at point
or expand everything. 'subtree is used for the Change Log while 'all is
used for all Spacemacs documents.
Currently helm-spacemacs//documentation-candidates grabs everything it
can in the doc directory. In the future we might put some images there
so better just choose the correct file type to include.
- Use `~` marker to represent key bindings. The `~` and `=` markers are
equivalent in Emacs: `=` uses `org-verbatim verbatim` faces, while `~`
uses `org-code verbatim)`, but both `org-verbatim` and `org-code` is
inherited from `shadow` face. So we can use `~` marker for this purpose.
`~` marker is also displayed properly on Github, since it's part of
standard Emacs, so no web functionality is broken.
- Add org-kbd face for displaying key bindings.
- Update CHANGELOG.org: use the proper `~` marker for key bindings.
- Update VIMUSERS.org: use the proper `~` marker for key bindings.
It's important to make templating variables something unique-looking so
that you don't accidentally write template variables where you don't
mean to. For example, in extensions.template, "package names go here"
was being replaced with "package <name of package>s go here", etc.
Also Search case-insensitively for good measure
Otherwise when the widget list is deleted to insert new widgets, the
separator "widget" is essentially text with properties and can cause
error when trying to delete, which breaks quick help and release note
buttons, making the buttons not function anymore.
Adding packages to this list will install them without
needing them to be wrapped in a layer.
Ideal for niche languages of any package that don't need
any configuration.
- Modularize and add quickhelp button
Split the current hardcoded release note display functions into smaller
reusable functions. Then reuse it for creating quickhelp button.
- fix: bind widget-button-click to left mouse click
widget-button-press is for keyboard and binding it to a left mouse
button is not suitable. The clicks on buttons are often ignored. Use the
proper widget-button-click.
- Since this is develop, point it to 0.102.x
- Beautify org CHANGELOG
Setting org-indent-mode hides the leading stars of all Org headers except
the last one just enough to indicate indentation, which make it easier
to read. Also, put it in read-only-mode so user don't accidentially mess
up his reading material.
Also put the CHANGELOG in view-mode for reading and navigating read-only
content.
- Add Evil and Emacs tutorial buttons to quickhelp
So it is even easier for first time users.
Also refactor spacemacs-buffer//insert-release-note:
- Change it to spacemacs-buffer//insert-note
- Just insert content. Widgets are optional
- Insert different widget from the two functions
spacemacs-buffer//insert-quickhelp-widget and spacemacs-buffer//insert-release-note-widget
- Put the cursor on the quickhelp button
So that users can start using it immediately. New users only knows RET
to press a button and learn the rest there.
- Add m to jump back to top menu
Also update the quickhelp content.
highlight-parentheses highlights the sexp scope the cursor is in and
3 upper sexp levels. We don't have to actually place the cursor on a
parenthesis just to see where it ends or begins. This package takes of this
issue regardless where we are in the sexp.
Currently, `r` and `p` moves to different locations when the change log
text is folded/unfolded. Make it always jumps to the correct location
regardless of content of home buffer by actually search for it.
Also set keys to make home buffer usable with holy-mode.
