emacs/README.org

Any introduction would be insufficient.

A "literate" configuration would break many things.

Thus I will write of random things included here in no particular order, as my
file organization suggests.

-----

Everything is in the file =lisp/mitch-packages.el=​. There are things in other
files but they mostly never change - see the commit history.

* TRAMP
Generally, tramp is mostly fine. But if there are problematic configurations, it
will be very slow and time out and it will hang Emacs. I've had terrible luck
with it until just today (at the time of writing) and I'm legitimately shocked
it isn't terrible. Hooray! but also come on.

* Evil
vim keys are indispensable to me. Legit I cannot live without them very
well. Most all of my evil configuration is very boilerplate, but I'd like to
think that's fine.

VIPER is also a thing built into Emacs. It's probably not that bad, but the
defaults are very unintuitive compared to evil-collection.

* EShell
I like eshell - it reminds me of the configuration I liked about zsh, and the
composability I love about powershell.

The EAT terminal is also just amazing.

* NLinum-relative
is a thing. It requires nlinum which requires linum which is deprecated. This is
all for a single face declaration which is VERY UNNECESSARY. Just define it the
same and force theme authors to add a declaration. or /inherit from the built-in
display-line-numbers face/​.

* mitch-theme
In [[https://git.mitchmarq42.xyz/mitch/vimcolors][a separate repo]] there is a theme I made. It's not a good theme and I'm
insane. But I can't stand normal themes. By all accounts there is something
wrong with my eyes. Shut up.

* YAscroll
"yet another scroll" yet there is no other scrollbar. If anyone knows of one,
tell me.

I re-define a display function in my config because I'm using background
transparency and otherwise it looks all chunky with the face declaration.

* Org
A good idea and usable, but I currently disable most fancy things because it
gets very slow otherwise. I've ran profilers and debuggers and the problem is
related to redisplay.

* org-tempo
I want to get rid of this and just use yasnippets, but oh well.

* ox-hugo
I have a function that automatically re-generates all the hugos.
