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.
Misspellings:
"beginnign" changed to "beginning",
"Insert one of several lines" changed to "Insert one or several lines" in two functions,
"identation" changed to "indentation",
Missing comment copied from the function that inserts a line
in the opposite direction:
(defun spacemacs/insert-line-below-no-indent (count)
"Insert a new line below with no indentation."
and renamed the direction, resulting in:
"Insert a new line above with no indentation."
Duplicate comments removed, the comments inside the functions,
are better explanations of what the function does.
Functions reordered:
The functions:
(defun spacemacs/evil-insert-line-below (count)
and
(defun spacemacs/evil-insert-line-above (count)
were written in a illogical order,
the "above" function should be written before the "below" function,
with this change, the function order will match other functions
with "above" and "below" in their names,
for example these:
(defun spacemacs/insert-line-above-no-indent (count)
https://github.com/syl20bnr/spacemacs/blob/develop/layers/%2Bdistributions/spacemacs-base/funcs.el#L535
(defun spacemacs/insert-line-below-no-indent (count)

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$
Before this <tab> => TAB if there is no binding for <tab>, but then
`spacemacs/translate-C-i` turned this into <C-i>, which we don't want
because that would mean having to always bind <tab> when this option is
enabled. This commit adds a check to make sure we can't possibly be
translating from <tab> originally (we only want to capture the C-i
events in the GUI).
Also, fixes C-m translation but leaves it commented.
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`».
- Rename contrib directory to layers
- Add new variable dotspacemacs-distribution
- Move spacemacs layer to layers/!distribution
- New layer spacemacs-core in layers/!distribution
- User can now set dotspacemacs-distribution to spacemacs or
spacemacs-core (default spacemacs)
spacemacs-core is very lightweight layer sufficient to build upon
spacemacs.
Set as default unless user has dotspacemacs-use-ido t.
Adds comments to .spacemacs.template informing users of new behavior
tied to dotspacemacs-use-ido.
