Syntax-checking and auto-complete layers should more directly communicate that their function depends on the installation of individual language layers to avoid misunderstandings with new users who only install syntax-checking or auto-complete and install the packages manually. |

Syntax Checking layer
Description
This layer adds on the fly syntax checking to all supported language layers.
Features:
- Support for automatic syntax checking with Flycheck for various language layers
- Tooltip syntax errors with
popwin
Install
Layer
To use this configuration layer, add it to your ~/.spacemacs. You will need to
add syntax-checking to the existing dotspacemacs-configuration-layers list in this
file.
As this is a support layer you will also have to install at least one supported language layer for it to have any effect.
Enabling/Disabling tooltips
By default tooltips are enabled and used whenever it is possible.
You can disable them by setting the variable syntax-checking-enable-tooltips
to nil:
(setq-default dotspacemacs-configuration-layers
'((syntax-checking :variables syntax-checking-enable-tooltips nil)))Disabling by default
By default, syntax-checking is enabled in all available major modes (except for
emacs-lisp-mode) and may be toggled off with SPC t s. You can default this to off
by setting the variable syntax-checking-enable-by-default to nil:
(setq-default dotspacemacs-configuration-layers
'((syntax-checking :variables syntax-checking-enable-by-default nil)))
If you want more fine-grained control, you can configure the variable
flycheck-global-modes instead. Note that this variable should be manipulated
in dotspacemacs/user-config.
Bitmaps
If the original flycheck fringe bitmaps are more to your liking, you can set the
variable syntax-checking-use-original-bitmaps to t:
(setq-default dotspacemacs-configuration-layers
'((syntax-checking :variables syntax-checking-use-original-bitmaps t)))Key Bindings
