syl20bnr 7ed32a8d61 rebox: various modifications

README
- Remove header from README (we don't add such header by convention)
- Move sections in README to better the reflect the structure of the
  other READMEs
- Simplify documentation
- Remove Thanks section (we don't add such section by convention, it is
  very hard to maintain and keep accurate, user can see credits for a
  package in the package source code directly)
- Remove the package default key bindings (same reason, it is also hard
  to keep in sync if the bindings change upstream, the users should check
  the default bindings themselves).

CONFIGURATION
- Add spacemacs key bindings under `SPC x b` for text boxes (I prefer
to use `SPC x` instead of `SPC i` because rebox modify an existing text,
it does not _insert_ a box per se).
- Add a transient state for quick cycling
- Add a layer variable `rebox-enable-in-text-mode` to enable the mode
  in text-mode buffers
- Move functions to funcs.el

Description

This layer adds support for rebox2 package which is a minor-mode allowing to easily add ASCII text boxes to a buffer.

A nice video demonstration by the package author can be found here.

Features

Auto-wrap correctly in comments,
Auto-fill correctly in comments,
Boxes auto-adapt as text is inserted or deleted,
S-return to continue a comment on the next line,
Kill/yank within the box,
Apparently works well with ancient filladpt-mode (see authors video).

Install

Layer

To use this configuration layer, add it to your ~/.spacemacs. You will need to add rebox to the existing dotspacemacs-configuration-layers list in this file.

Configuration

Styles cycling

Box styles are identified by numbers, it is possible to cycle through a list of styles using SPC i b n. This list can be customized by setting the variable rebox-style-loop.

(setq rebox-style-loop '(71 72 73))

Text mode

As text mode usage could surprise some users (e.g., when they enter M-q to fill a paragraph) rebox is not enabled by default in text-mode. To enable it you need to set the layer variable rebox-enable-in-text-mode to t.

(setq-default dotspacemacs-configuration-layers '(
    (rebox :variables rebox-enable-in-text-mode t)))

Style Templates

Standard packaged templates

Comments

These templates are single line comments styles. A # is used here for illustration; however, it will work equally well if the comment character is different (e.g., lisp's ; comment character).

  # box style 11

  # box style 12 #

Keybinding	Command
`SPC i b >`	Move box to the right (point must be around left side of the box)
`SPC i b <`	Move box to the left (point must be around left side of the box)
`SPC i b b`	Draw next box defined in `rebox-style-loop`
`SPC i b B`	Draw previous box defined in `rebox-style-loop`
`SPC i b c`	Center box (point must be around left side of the box)
`S-return`	rebox-indent-new-line
