With a nil value for dotspacemacs-switch-to-buffer-prefers-purpose,
switch-to-buffer prefers using the current window, same as vanilla
Emacs. With a non-nil value, switch-to-buffer prefers another window
with the same purpose as the buffer. This affects actions like
spacemacs/alternate-buffer, and opening buffers from Dired.
Rename dotspacemacs-download-packages to dotspacemacs-install-packages
to better reflect the changes in the previous commit.
Also change the value 'used to 'used-only (note that 'used is still
supported for backward compatibility).
For emacs 24.5 packages will be installed in .emacs.d/elpa/24.5, for
emacs 24.4 packages will be installed in .emacs.d/elpa/24.4, etc.
For a user that uses several emacs versions with the same config, the
packages for version X will be in .emacs.d/elpa/X and the packages for
version Y will be in .emacs.d/elpa/Y. This is instead of using the same
.emacs.d/elpa and possibly having copmiled elisp packages the are
incompatible with one of the emacs versions in use.
Rollback directories are also separated by version:
.cache/.rollback/24.5, .cache/.rollback/24.4, etc.
Don't fallback to default init file when SPACMACSDIR is used and
$SPACEMACSDIR/init.el doesn't exist. The file will be created during
the startup process.
TL;DR Should get 20~25% speed improvement on startup, should get a big
improvement when using ivy or helm SPC h SPC. Users with layers.el files
in their layers must use `configuration-layer/declare-used-layer`
instead of `configuration-layer/declare-layer`
The implementation of the layer system made heavy use of `object-assoc`
and `object-assoc-list` functions which are not efficient. This PR
mainly replaces those object lists with hash maps in order to index the
objects by their name and achieve an O(1) access time.
The old object lists `configuration-layer--layers` and
`configuration-layer--packages` have been each by two variables each:
- `configuration-layer--indexed-layers` which is a hash-map of all the
layer objects and `configuration-layer--used-layers` which is a list of
all _used_ layers symbols,
- symmetrically `configuration-layer--indexed-packages` which is a
hash-map of all the package objects and
`configuration-layer--used-packages` which is a list of all _used_
packages symbols.
The hash map `configuration-layer--layer-paths` is gone, now we create
directly layer objects when discovering the layers and set the :dir
property. Note that previously the layer paths were the parent directory
of the layer, now :dir is the layer path.
The function `configuration-layer//make-layer` is now similar to its
counterpart `configuration-layer//make-package` in the sense that it
takes an optional `obj` to be able to override its properties.
The functions `configuration-layer/declare-layer` and
`configuration-layer/declare-layers` now takes an optional parameter
`usedp` in order to declare used or not used layers. For convenience
new functions have been added: `configuration-layer/declare-used-layer`
and `configuration-layer/declare-used-layers`, users _must_ update all
occurrences of `configuration-layer/declare-layer` by
`configuration-layer/declare-used-layers` in their `layers.el` files.
`helm-spacemacs-help` and `ivy-spacemacs-help` are updated to match the
changes in `core-configuration-layer.el`.
Rename some variables to make them more explicit:
`configuration-layer-no-layer` -> `configuration-layer-exclude-all-layers`
`configuration-layer-distribution` -> `configuration-layer-force-distribution`
- make it clear that setting dotspacemacs-default-font has no effect in
terminal
- make it clear that it's user responsibility to install Source Code Pro

* layers/+spacemacs/spacemacs-editing/packages.el (spacemacs-editing/init-origami):
add origami package and initialize it
* core/core-dotspacemacs.el (dotspacemacs-override-evil-folding): new
variable to allow choosing between different code folding methods.
Currently supported `evil' and `origami'
This new variable replace dotspacemacs-delete-orphan-packages
It defines the behaviour of Spacemacs when downloading packages.
Possible values are `used', `used-but-keep-unused' and `all'.
- `used' will download only explicitly used packages and remove any
unused packages as well as their dependencies.
- `used-but-keep-unused' will download only the used packages but won't
delete them if they become unused.
- `all' will download all the packages regardless if they are used or
not and packages won't be deleted by Spacemacs.
Default value is `used`.
Now Spacemacs will ask for layer installation when opening a file with
a known file type.
The auto-mode-alist entries are added by the file auto-layer.el in
the layers directory.
Easy insert of forms for lazy initialization can be done with the
interactive function configuration-layer//insert-lazy-install-form.
Change default value of dotspacemacs-enable-lazy-installation to t.
New function configuration-layer/lazy-install to add support for
lazy installation of layers based on auto-mode-alist emacs mechanism.
This is essentially the Prelude feature but translated at the layer
level for Spacemacs.
New dotspacemacs variable to enable this feature:
dotspacemacs-enable-lazy-installation
For now this variable is set to nil by default, it will be put to t when
the feature is stable.
POC with elixir layer.
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$
1. Don't use beginning-of-buffer (or end):
These are for interactive use only according to compiler
2. reduce => cl-reduce
3. next-line => forward-line
next-line is only for interactive use
4. set-default-font => set-frame-font
set-default-font is obsolete since 23.1
5. show-subtree => outline-show-subtree (alias)
6. show-all => outline-show-all (alias)
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
dotspacemacs-default-layout-name is only to set the name
new variable dotspacemacs-display-default-layout controls the display
of the default layout in the mode-line
- Rename micro-states to "layouts"
- Rename some functions to include "layout" instead of "perspective"
- cleanup variables
- move functions to funcs.el
- move package specific stuff to post-init functions
- changes key bindings
- micro-state documentation rewrite
- change format of the layouts line in the micro-state doc
- defer loading of persp-mode which loads with `SPC l`
- always display the spacemacs home buffer with no switch
- various fixes
- various new bugs :-)
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.
`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`».
Catch errors in executed function and signal them to the user in the
spacemacs buffer. We don't want loading to silently fail because there
is a problem in dotspacemacs/user-config for example.
