After the change in 1d340dcc77,
there was some grumbling in gitter that `SPC L` is not as convenient
as `SPC l`. Apparently avy-goto-line is a popular function.
`SPC y` is chosen because it is:
- currently unused (as far as I can tell).
- sort of mnemonic because "avy" has a "y" in it.
- doesn't require SHIFT to type
- is accessible even on non-US keyboards
(there were suggestions such ";" and "\" that are not as accessible
on non-US keyboards)
This change also updates the documentation regarding the change from
ace-jump-mode to avy.
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.
Add the `lorem-ipsum` package to insert text, and bind it to:
* `xil`: lorem-ipsum-insert-list
* `xip`: lorem-ipsum-insert-paragraphs
* `xis`: lorem-ipsum-insert-sentences
`x` as it's text related, and `l` for `list, `p` for `paragraph` and `s`
for sentences.
`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`».
Merging the HOW-TOs inside the FAQ allows to have a central place to
look for information. It will also offer all HOW-TOs through the
`SPC f e h` helm search.
This commit apply the following changes:
- Remove leading whitespaces
- Apply fill-paragraph to justify answers' paragraphs.
- Add question: how to define/change an evil-leader prefix?
- Add question: user-init or user-config?
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).
Add a release note about the limitation of org loading since 0.105, and
also document it in the org-layer's README.
Close#3277
Move note to FAQ and correct text to 0.104
Add a spacemacs update button to the spacemacs buffer, and relabel the
package update button to read "Update Packages". This will hopefully
resolve some confusion about updating spacemacs vs. updating the
packages.
I also tweaked the switch-to-version function to make it a little more
verbose to use it for the spacemacs update button.
This makes all Notes in DOCUMENTATION.org be *Note*: and changes the
markup around the spacemacs init file path in jabbers README.org to
proper org markup.
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`.
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 function `spacemacs/avy-open-url` allows to easily select an URL on
the screen with `avy` and open it. The function is bind to `SPC x o`,
`x` as it is text-related and `o` for open.
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!
"Search for files" means that the command looks for files, while actually `SPC s f` searches in some files for lines that match the given search pattern. Changed it to "search in files" to better reflect what the command does.
