Helm-flx, which is included as a core package, requires a minimum Emacs
version of 24.4. As it stands attempting to install Spacemacs on Emacs
24.3 or below will break on helm-flx.
Revert "Parse CLI args after dotspacemacs/init"
This reverts commit 0a35502de4.
We cannot delay the parsing of CLI params since we need their values
early during the loading process (i.e. debug info).
Replace the previous commit with a new variable `spacemacs-insecure`
which takes the value of --insecure boolean parameter.
spacemacs/report-issue opens a buffer prepopulated with a template and some
system information. The buffer is markdown-mode augmented with a keybinding to
send the contents to github.
Or if that doesn't work, the text remains in the buffer to be manually copied
and pasted. This makes the error reporting more robust: right after the user has
experienced one bug is the worst time to manifest another one.
This commit also rewrites spacemacs//describe-last-keys-string because I
couldn't figure out how else to prevent view-lossage from burying the new
REPORT_SPACEMACS_ISSUE buffer. Suggestions welcome.
If emacs is launched with -q option and spacemacs files are loaded via
--eval option, then spacemacs fails due to depending `after-init-time'
variable being set properly which is done only when emacs is launched
without -q. This patch is to remove this dependence so that spacemacs
launched with -q can still work. This is done by introducing
`spacemacs-initialized' variable which is set properly regardless of
which command line options are present or absent.
New package :step 'bootstrap', this step happens before 'pre' packages.
A new layer names 'spacemacs-bootstrap' gather all the ':step bootstrap'
packages. This layer is special and is always the first element of
the variable 'configuration-layer--layers' which assure that all
bootstrap packages are configured first.
This new layer leverages the configuration layer system, removes the
clutter of package installations in the function 'spacemacs/init' and
isolate the bootstrap packages in one place.
Add function that can be used to defer execution until after
dotspacemacs/user-config is run. If it has already been run the function
executes immediately.
Initially this is only used for deferring the definitions of
transient-states.
People transitioning from Vim could be surprised if we set these
variable to t by default, so setting them to nil respects better
the POLA principle.
Impacted variables:
dotspacemacs-ex-substitute-global
dotspacemacs-remap-Y-to-y$
Background: `C-i` and `TAB` are the same keycode for historic reasons.
With the current settings, evil [1] and evil-jumper [2] associate
`jump-forward` to `C-i` (==`TAB`), what overrides bindings set to
`TAB` (==`C-i`) in terminal mode, like `orc-cycle`. To fix this,
this commit:
- Set `evil-want-C-i-jump` to `nil`, to prevent `evil` and `evil-jumper`
to use the `C-i` (==`TAB`) keycode.
- Remove the spacemacs' code that bind `jump-forward` to `TAB`(==`C-i`)
The current spacemacs code already rebind `jump-forward` to the GUI-only
`<C-i>` keycode.

[2] efaa841ca4/evil-jumper.el (L241)Fix#4505Fix#4487
Please check this, but this does the trick for me to fix#4057. The
reason I'm not sure about it is I don't know what the purpose of the
do-after-display-system-init code is. It doesn't seem necessary for me,
and I'm testing this on the GUI version.
Note that any non Emacsy command line parameter and non processed
command line parameter (that is unknown from Spacemacs) will hide the
home buffer. This should be good enough.
Fixes#4057
Add macro to wrap things that depend on the display being
initialized (and a frame active), such as getting the font. Advise the
`server-create-window-system-frame` function which is called by
emacsclient when creating a window-system frame. This is only run the
first time a frame is created, so the advice removes itself.
Fixes: syl20bnr/spacemacs#299 and syl20bnr/spacemacs#1894
(Among others)
Added dotfile variable to template and core-dotspacemacs.el
After enabling, if C-i is translated to the "key" <C-i> which allows you
to bind a separate command in the GUI like this
(define-key map [C-i] 'c-i-command)
or this
(define-key map (kbd "<C-i>") 'c-i-command)
This has the side effect of no longer making C-i default to TAB in the
GUI, but will not affect the TAB or <tab> bindings.
Removes spacemacs//handle-terminal-keys
package-refresh-packages was called every time a bootstrap package or
a theme was installed
Use configuration-layer/retrieve-package-archives to install bootstrap
packages and themes
Add a reentrance boolean to configuration-layer/retrieve-package-archives
Add force and quiet optional arguments to configuration-layer/retrieve-package-archives
Force refresh of archive when the user requests an update of packages
Add request.el to core/libs
Refactor package.el initialization in configuration-layer.el
Cosmetic improvements to loading messages
Remove redefinition of package-refresh-packages
New file core-emacs-ext.el
This is a basic monkey-patch solution but it will do the job for now.
The timeout amount is not configurable for now.
Tested on 24.5 and 24.3.1
fixes#3284
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.
1. Make sure debug-on-error stays on
2. Force verbose loading
3. Detect long requires and loads (with --timed-requires)
4. Start profiler (with --profile)
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.
