* Description
|
|
Spacemacs is not just emacs+vim. It can have OSX keybindings too! This layer
|
|
globally defines common OSX keybindings. ~⌘~ is set to ~super~ and ~⌥~ is set to
|
|
~meta~. Aside from that, there's nothing much, really.
|
|
|
|
While in =dired= this layer will try to use =gls= instead of =ls=.
|
|
|
|
* Philosophy
|
|
While this layer enables common OSX bindings, it does not implement OSX
|
|
navigation keybindings. Spacemacs is meant to be used with evil, and we
|
|
encourage you to do so :)
|
|
|
|
* Install
|
|
** Layer
|
|
To use this configuration layer, add it to your =~/.spacemacs=. You will need to
|
|
add =osx= to the existing =dotspacemacs-configuration-layers= list in this file.
|
|
|
|
*** Use with non-US keyboard layouts
|
|
If you need the ~⌥~ key to type common characters such as ={[]}~= which is usual
|
|
for e.g. Finnish and Swedish keyboard layouts, you'll probably want to leave the
|
|
~⌥~ key unchanged by setting the =osx-use-option-as-meta= variable to =nil=:
|
|
|
|
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
|
|
(setq-default dotspacemacs-configuration-layers '(
|
|
(osx :variables osx-use-option-as-meta nil)))
|
|
#+END_SRC
|
|
|
|
If you have problem entering symbols that are behind the ~⌥~ key you may want to
|
|
added this to the user-init in the .spacemacs-File. This will allow you to use
|
|
the right ~⌥~ key to write symbols. The left ~⌥~ key can be used as the Meta
|
|
key.
|
|
|
|
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
|
|
(setq-default mac-right-option-modifier nil)
|
|
#+END_SRC
|
|
|
|
*** Define words using OS X Dictionary
|
|
|
|
This layer by default enables defining words under point ~SPC x w d~ using OS X
|
|
Dictionary. In some cases you might want to manually setup dictionary to use.
|
|
For example,
|
|
|
|
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
|
|
(setq-default dotspacemacs-configuration-layers '(
|
|
(osx :variables osx-dictionary-dictionary-choice "English")))
|
|
#+END_SRC
|
|
|
|
To get the list of available dictionaries call =osx/list-available-dictionaries=
|
|
function.
|
|
|
|
You can disable it by setting =osx-use-dictionary-app= variable to =nil=:
|
|
|
|
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
|
|
(setq-default dotspacemacs-configuration-layers '(
|
|
(osx :variables osx-use-dictionary-app nil)))
|
|
#+END_SRC
|
|
|
|
** Coreutils
|
|
To get =gls= install coreutils homebrew:
|
|
|
|
#+BEGIN_SRC sh
|
|
brew install coreutils
|
|
#+END_SRC
|
|
|
|

* Future Work
|
|
- Allow user to choose from either ~hyper~ or ~super~ as ~⌘~. This is an option
|
|
that is supported cross-platform.
|
|
- Configurable option to keep the OSX and spacemacs clipboards separate
