OSX layer
Description
Spacemacs is not just emacs+vim. It can have OSX keybindings too! This layer globally defines common OSX keybindings.
Features:
⌘
is set tohyper
and⌥
is set tometa
- In
dired
usegls
instead ofls
- Fix separator colors of Spaceline mode-line
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
Layer has been updated for new config variables. The variable osx-use-option-as-meta
is still available for backwards compatibility and will take precedence if set.
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.
The different modifier keys can be set as follows:
(setq-defaults dotspacemacs-configuration-layers '(
(osx :variables osx-command-as 'hyper
osx-option-as 'meta
osx-control-as 'control
osx-function-as 'none
osx-right-command-as 'left
osx-right-option-as 'left
osx-right-control-as 'left))
These are also the default values. Setting the right modifier to left
will equal the left modifier. Allowed values are: super
, meta
, control
,
alt
and none
.
Setting nil
for modifiers will leave the left modifiers as emacs default.
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-option-as
variable to none
:
(setq-default dotspacemacs-configuration-layers '(
(osx :variables osx-option-as 'none)))
If you have problem entering symbols that are behind the ⌥
key you may want to
set the variables as follows. This will allow you to use
the right ⌥
key to write symbols. The left ⌥
key can be used as the Meta
key.
(setq-default dotspacemacs-configuration-layers '(
(osx :variables osx-option-as 'meta
osx-right-option-as 'none)))
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,
(setq-default dotspacemacs-configuration-layers '(
(osx :variables osx-dictionary-dictionary-choice "English")))
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
:
(setq-default dotspacemacs-configuration-layers '(
(osx :variables osx-use-dictionary-app nil)))
Coreutils
To get gls
install coreutils homebrew:
brew install coreutils

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