racket-xp-mode is an optional minor mode that enhances the racket-mode to
explain and explore Racket code. The racket-xp-mode is started with a mode-hook
on racket-mode. Deprecated racket-mode functions are replaced with their
racket-xp-mode versions. The remaining racket-xp-mode functions are added to
keybindings as per Spacemacs conventions.
Also add the racket-mode directory to .gitignore.
problem:
some layer packages lists have the open and closing parentheses on the same line
as the first and last listed package, but most seem to have them on a separate
lines.
solution:
put the open and close parentheses on separate lines, except for lists with only
a single package, they are written on the same line as the variable name and
parentheses.
fix the lists indentation
This reverts commit 29c78ce841 and all other fixes
that have been made afterwards.
The motivation is that use-package is seen by many as a replacement for
`require`. Is use-package always defer the loading of packages then is breaks
this use case, this does not respect POLA so even if it was making Spacemacs
loading faster (up to 3s faster on some startup on my machine) we just cannot
use it, it would be irresponsible. Spacemacs should be easy to use, loading
performance will come with time but it is not a priority.
Delete layer evil-cleverparens and move the package to spacemacs-evil layer.
The feature is called "Safe structurral editing" for lisp dialects. Support for
it is added via pre-init functions in each of the concerned layer and proper
documentation is added to their README.org files.
This also removes the recently added package evil-smartparens. The goal is
to choose the best package for evil safe structural editing. For now we use
evil-cleverparens as we supported it first, if evil-smartparens is shown to be
a better package we will be able to switch to it.
- Add option to disable by default
- Use local-vars hook to allow per-project enable/disable
- Don’t enable helm-gtags-mode (no need)
- Move emacs bindings from helm-gtags-mode-map to ggtags-mode-map
This commit defines:
- spacemacs-default-jump-handlers: a list of functions that can jump to
definition in ALL modes.
- spacemacs-jump-handlers-MODE: a list of functions that can jump to
definition in MODE.
- spacemacs-jump-handlers: a buffer-local list of functions that can
jump to definition. This is made up of the values of the two previous
variables whenever a given major mode is activated.
- spacemacs/jump-to-definition: a function that tries each function in
spacemacs-jump-handlers in order, and stops when one of them takes us
somewhere new.
- spacemacs|define-jump-handlers: a macro that
* defines spacemacs-jump-handlers-MODE, possibly filled with initial
functions
* defines a function that is added to the hook of the given MODE
* binds “SPC m g g” of that MODE to spacemacs/jump-to-definition
This is an attempt to harmonize all the different approaches to jumping.
Specifically,
- Existing intelligent jump packages that work for only a single mode
should go to the beginning of spacemacs-jump-handlers-MODE. E.g.
anaconda for python, ensime for scala, etc.
- Packages like gtags that work for several modes (but potentially not
all) and which is dumber than the intelligent jumpers should go the
the END of spacemacs-jump-handlers-MODE.
- Packages like dumb-jump that work for all modes should go to
spacemacs-default-jump-handlers.
In all cases the order of the jump handlers in each list should be from
most to least intelligent.
Fixes#6619
Motivation
While disabling Evil in holy-mode makes its implementation shorter and
sounds elegant on the paper, in practice it puts a big burden on the
configuration parts which need to know if Evil is enable or not. This is
a bad separation of concerns and the bunch of fixes that we were forced
to do in the past weeks shows this issue. Those fixes were about
removing the knowledge of the activation of Evil by implementing new
dispatching functions to be used by layers, this is cumbersome and makes
Spacemacs layer configuration more subtle which is not good. There was
additional bad consequences of the removal of Evil state like the
impossibility to use Evil lisp state or iedit states, or we would have
been forced to implement a temporary activation of Evil which is
awkward.
Instead I reintroduce Evil as the central piece of Spacemacs design thus
Evil is now re-enabled in holy-mode. It provides the abstraction we need
to isolate editing styles and be able to grow the Spacemacs
configuration coverage sanely. Layers don't need to check whether the
holy mode is active or not and they don't need to know if Evil is
available (it is always available). We also don't need to write
additional dispatching functions, this is the job of Evil, and I think
it provides everything for this. Ideally configuration layer should be
implemented with only Evil in mind and the holy-mode (and hybrid-mode)
should magically make it work for Emacs style users, for instance we can
freely use `evil-insert-state` anywhere in the code without any guard.
Evil is now even more part of Spacemacs, we can really say that
Spacemacs is Emacs+Evil which is now an indivisible pair. Spacemacs
needed this stable API to continue on the right track.
While these changes should be rather transparent to the user, I'm sorry
for this experimental period, I failed to see all the implications of
such a change, I was just excited about the possibility to make Evil
optional. The reality is that Spacemacs has to embrace it and keep its
strong position on being Emacs+Evil at the core.
Implementation
- insert, motion and normal states are forced to emacs state using an
advice on `evil-insert-state`, `evil-motion-state` and
`evil-normal-state` respectively. These functions can be used freely in
the layer configuration.
- A new general hook `spacemacs-editing-style-hook` allow to hook any
code that need to be configured based on the editing style. Functions
hooked to this hook takes the current style as parameter, this
basically generalize the hook used to setup hjkl navigation bindings.
- ESC has been removed from the emacs state map.
- Revert unneeded changes
- Revert "evil: enter insert-state only from normal-state"
commit bdd702dfbe.
- Revert "avoid being evil in deft with emacs editing style"
commit f3a16f49ed.
Additional changes
All editing style packages have been moved to a layer called
`spacemacs-editing-styles`
Notes
I did not have time to attack hybrid mode, I should be able to do it
later.
Helm seems to treat "!" specially in pattern matching, so having a ! in
the pattern string when traversing directories is problematic. This
change fixes#2737, because as far as I can tell "+" has no special
meaning in a helm pattern.
Of course, we can choose a different character, but I'm fond of "+" as
representing "more layers here".
