+*** Embark
+I'm very late to the party here - mostly because I didn't see much
+point in this.  However, after seeing that [[*empv][empv]] had some
+embark bindings for cool behaviours (such as altering playlists) I had
+to try it out - and I was not disappointed.
+
+~embark-act~ is the entry point to using embark, and you can use it
+basically anywhere to great effect.  Searching a buffer via
+~consult-line~?  ~execute-extended-command~?  Looking for files?
+~embark-act~ will pop up a little buffer full of keybindings specific
+to that context that lower the time it takes to get what you want
+done.
+
+A major reason for why this works so well is the actions buffer
+generated by ~embark-act~.  You can actually use this buffer
+generation when asking for help after a prefix-key, which I've set
+here.  There are also many other little options you can tweak to make
+embark act more like how you wish, which I've barely touch on here.
