* Description
This layer provides support for typographic text editing in Spacemacs.

** Features:
- Modes to automatically insert and cycle among typographic characters
- [[https://github.com/jorgenschaefer/typoel][Typo Mode]] automatically inserts and cycles among typographic Unicode
  characters on some keys.
- Tildify Mode automatically inserts non-breaking spaces where
  required (Only available on Emacs 25).

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
  (setq-default dotspacemacs-configuration-layers
