This commit moves the – previously disabled – `auto-dictionary` code to
the `spell-checking` layer and activate it. It is now enabled by
default, but can be disabled by setting `spell-checking-auto-dictionary`
to `nil`.
`auto-dictionary` comes with some interesting improvements:
- Tries to automatically detect what is the language of the buffer and
activate the corresponding dictionary.
- When a buffer is opened, all spelling mistakes are shown without
needing first to be under the cursor.
- When the dictionary is changed, the whole buffer is reanalyzed for
spelling mistakes (close#2088).
`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.
For buffers, `*` search for the word under the cursor, and `/` ask to
search for an expression. To keep the same mnemonic at project level,
this commit change `SPC /` to ask for an expression to search, and add
`SPC *` to search for the expression under the cursor (in fact the only
difference being the expression pre-filled inside the input field).
The toggle is being called after the package is loaded, but the package
is deferred based on a call to the toggle. This means that the first
time toggle is used it's called at least twice. Furthermore, `(setq
linum-format 'linum-relative)` effectively turns on the mode as it is.
Possible fix for #2161
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.
evil-mc is a new attempt to bring multiple cursors to evil users.
Enable it by adding `(global-evil-mc-mode)` then use
g r m to mark all
g r u to remove cursors
g r p to pause cursors
g r r to resume
g r h to add a cursor at point (cursors must be paused first)

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.
