It tries to use the primary colours for everything, leading to a colour -> meaning relation. I have an older version of this theme that uses a homogeneous colour scheme ([[file:elisp/personal-theme.el][this file]]) #+begin_src emacs-lisp (use-package custom :demand t :straight nil :init (setq custom-theme-directory (concat user-emacs-directory "elisp/")) :config (load-theme 'personal-primary t)) #+end_src *** Light theme I'm not very good at designing light themes as I don't really use them. However they are necessary in high light situations where a dark mode would strain the eyes too much. So I built a custom theme on top of the default Emacs theme, "personal-light" (look at [[file:elisp/personal-light-theme.el][this file]]). I don't use it by default but I may need to switch between light and dark easily, so here's a command to switch between them. #+begin_src emacs-lisp (use-package custom :defer t :straight nil :commands +oreo/switch-theme :init (defvar +oreo/theme 'dark) :config (defun +oreo/switch-theme () (interactive) (cond ((eq +oreo/theme 'dark) (load-theme 'personal-light t) (setq +oreo/theme 'light)) ((eq +oreo/theme 'light) (load-theme 'personal-primary t) (setq +oreo/theme 'dark))))) #+end_src ** Font size Set font size to 140 if on my desktop (oldboy) or 175 if on my laptop (spiderboy). #+begin_src emacs-lisp (use-package faces :straight nil :config (+oreo/sys-name-cond ("spiderboy" (set-face-attribute 'default nil :height 175)) ("oldboy" (set-face-attribute 'default nil :height 140)))) #+end_src ** Scratch buffer Turn off the startup buffer because I prefer [[Dashboard]], and write into the scratch buffer some nice information about Emacs. #+begin_src emacs-lisp (use-package emacs :straight nil :init (setq inhibit-startup-screen t initial-scratch-message (format ";; Emacs v%s\n" emacs-version) ring-bell-function 'ignore)) #+end_src ** Blinking cursor Turn off blinking-cursor-mode as [[*Hl-line][hl-line]] is better. #+begin_src emacs-lisp (use-package frame :straight nil :config (blink-cursor-mode 0)) #+end_src ** Fringes Turning off borders in my window manager was a good idea, so turn off the borders for Emacs. #+begin_src emacs-lisp (use-package fringe :after dashboard :straight nil :config (fringe-mode 0)) #+end_src ** Mode line A mode line in an editor can provide a LOT of information, or very little. I customised the Emacs modeline to give me a bit of info, ~telephone-line~ to give me a lot.

These yield core functionality such as keybinding, modal editing, completion, auto typing to name a few. ** General General provides a great solution for binding keys. It has evil and use-package support so it fits nicely into configuration. In this case, I define a "definer" for the "LEADER" keys. Leader is bound to ~SPC~ and it's functionally equivalent to the doom/spacemacs leader. Local leader is bound to ~SPC ,~ and it's similar to doom/spacemacs leader but doesn't try to fully assimilate the local-leader map, instead just picking stuff I think is useful. This forces me to learn only as many bindings as I find necessary; no more, no less. I also define prefix leaders for differing applications. These are quite self explanatory by their name and provide a nice way to visualise all bindings under a specific heading just by searching the code. #+begin_src emacs-lisp (use-package general :demand t :config ;; General which key definitions for leaders (general-def :states '(normal motion) "SPC" 'nil "\\" '(nil :which-key "Local leader") "SPC c" '(nil :which-key "Code") "SPC f" '(nil :which-key "File") "SPC t" '(nil :which-key "Shell") "SPC m" '(nil :which-key "Toggle modes") "SPC a" '(nil :which-key "Applications") "SPC s" '(nil :which-key "Search") "SPC b" '(nil :which-key "Buffers") "SPC q" '(nil :which-key "Quit/Literate") "SPC i" '(nil :which-key "Insert") "SPC d" '(nil :which-key "Directories")) (general-create-definer leader :states '(normal motion) :keymaps 'override :prefix "SPC") (general-create-definer local-leader :states '(normal motion) :prefix "\\") (general-create-definer code-leader :states '(normal motion) :keymaps 'override :prefix "SPC c") (general-create-definer file-leader :states '(normal motion) :keymaps 'override :prefix "SPC f") (general-create-definer shell-leader :states '(normal motion) :keymaps 'override :prefix "SPC t") (general-create-definer mode-leader :states '(normal motion) :keymaps 'override :prefix "SPC m") (general-create-definer app-leader :states '(normal motion) :keymaps 'override :prefix "SPC a") (general-create-definer search-leader :states '(normal motion) :keymaps 'override :prefix "SPC s") (general-create-definer buffer-leader :states '(normal motion) :keymaps 'override :prefix "SPC b") (general-create-definer quit-leader :states '(normal motion) :keymaps 'override :prefix "SPC q") (general-create-definer insert-leader :states '(normal motion) :keymaps 'override :prefix "SPC i") (general-create-definer dir-leader :states '(normal motion) :keymaps 'override :prefix "SPC d") (general-create-definer general-nmmap :states '(normal motion)) (defalias 'nmmap #'general-nmmap) (general-evil-setup t)) #+end_src *** Some binds in Emacs Some bindings that I couldn't fit elsewhere easily. #+begin_src emacs-lisp (use-package emacs :straight nil :general (general-def "C-x d" #'delete-frame) (nmmap "C--" #'text-scale-decrease "C-=" #'text-scale-increase) (leader "SPC" '(execute-extended-command :which-key "M-x") "'" '(browse-url-emacs :which-key "Open url in Emacs") "u" 'universal-argument ";" 'eval-expression ":" `(,(proc (interactive) (switch-to-buffer "*scratch*")) :which-key "Switch to *scratch*") "!"

Thankfully Emacs is super extensible so there exists a package (more of a supreme system) for porting Vim's modal editing style to Emacs, called Evil (Emacs Vi Layer). However there are a lot of packages in Vim that provide greater functionality, for example 'vim-surround'. Emacs, by default, has these capabilities but there are further packages which integrate them into Evil. *** Evil core Setup the evil package, with some opinionated keybindings: - Switch ~evil-upcase~ and ~evil-downcase~ because I use ~evil-upcase~ more - Switch ~evil-goto-mark~ and ~evil-goto-mark-line~ as I'd rather have the global one closer to the home row - Use 'T' character as an action for transposing objects #+begin_src emacs-lisp (use-package evil :demand t :hook (after-init-hook . evil-mode) :general (leader "w" '(evil-window-map :which-key "Window") "wd" #'delete-frame) (nmmap "TAB" #'evil-jump-item "r" #'evil-replace-state "zC" #'hs-hide-level "'" #'evil-goto-mark "`" #'evil-goto-mark-line "C-w" #'evil-window-map "gu" #'evil-upcase "gU" #'evil-downcase "T" nil) (nmmap :infix "T" "w" #'transpose-words "c" #'transpose-chars "s" #'transpose-sentences "p" #'transpose-paragraphs "e" #'transpose-sexps "l" #'transpose-lines) :init (setq evil-want-keybinding nil evil-split-window-below t evil-vsplit-window-right t evil-want-abbrev-expand-on-insert-exit t evil-undo-system #'undo-tree) :config (fset #'evil-window-vsplit #'make-frame)) #+end_src *** Evil surround Evil surround is a port for vim-surround. #+begin_src emacs-lisp (use-package evil-surround :after evil :config (global-evil-surround-mode)) #+end_src *** Evil commentary Allows generalised commenting of objects easily. #+begin_src emacs-lisp (use-package evil-commentary :after evil :config (evil-commentary-mode)) #+end_src *** Evil multi cursor Setup for multi cursors in Evil mode.

Completion is its bread and butter in providing good user experience. By default Emacs provides 'completions-list' which produces a buffer of options which can be searched and selected. We can take this further though! Ido and Icomplete are packages distributed with Emacs to provide greater completion interfaces. They utilise the minibuffer to create a more interactive experience, allowing incremental searches and option selection. Ivy and Helm provide more modern interfaces, though Helm is quite heavy. Ivy, on the other hand, provides an interface similar to Ido with less clutter and better customisation options. *** Ivy Ivy is a completion framework for Emacs, and my preferred one.

By default Emacs has a family of functions to use grep, presenting results in a ~compilation~ style. ~grep~ searches files, ~rgrep~ searches in a directory using the ~find~ program and ~zgrep~ searches archives. This is a great solution for a general computer environment; essentially all Linux installs will have ~grep~ and ~find~ installed. Ripgrep is a Rust program that attempts to perform better than grep, and it actually does. This is because of a set of optimisations, such as checking the =.gitignore= to exclude certain files from being searched. The ripgrep package provides utilities to ripgrep projects and files for strings. Though [[*Ivy][ivy]] comes with ~counsel-rg~, it uses Ivy's completion framework rather than the ~compilation~ style buffers, which sometimes proves very useful.

Eshell is an integrated shell environment for Emacs, written in Emacs Lisp. I argue that it is the best shell/command interpreter to use in Emacs. Eshell is unlike the alternatives in Emacs as it's a /shell/ first, not a terminal emulator. It has the ability to spoof some aspects of a terminal emulator (through the shell parser), but it is NOT a terminal emulator. The killer benefits of eshell (which would appeal to Emacs users) are a direct result of eshell being written in Emacs lisp: - incredible integration with Emacs utilities (such as ~dired~, ~find-file~, any read functions, to name a few) - very extensible, easy to write new commands which leverage Emacs commands as well as external utilities - agnostic of platform: "eshell/cd" will call the underlying change directory function for you, so commands will (usually) mean the same thing regardless of platform - this means as long as Emacs runs, you can run eshell However, my favourite feature of eshell is the set of evaluators that run on command input. Some of the benefits listed above come as a result of this powerful feature. These evaluators are described below. Lisp evaluator: works on braced expressions, evaluating them as Lisp expressions (e.g. ~(message "Hello, World!\n")~). Any returned objects are printed. This makes eshell a LISP REPL! External evaluator: works within curly braces, evaluating them via some external shell process (like sh) (e.g. ~{echo "Hello, world!\n"}~). This makes eshell a (kinda dumb) terminal emulator! The alias evaluator is the top level evaluator. It is the main evaluator for each expression given to eshell. When given an expression it tries to evaluate it by testing against these conditions: - it's an alias defined by the user or in the ~eshell/~ namespace of functions (simplest evaluator) - it's some form of lisp expression (lisp evaluator) - it's an external command (bash evaluator) Essentially, you get the best of both Emacs and external shell programs *ALL WITHIN* Emacs for free. *** Eshell functionality Bind some evil-like movements for easy shell usage, and a toggle function to pull up the eshell quickly. #+begin_src emacs-lisp (use-package eshell :commands +shell/toggle-eshell :general (shell-leader "t" #'+shell/toggle-eshell) :init (add-hook 'eshell-mode-hook (proc (interactive) (general-def :states '(normal insert) :keymaps 'eshell-mode-map "M-l" (proc (interactive) (eshell/clear) "M-j" #'eshell-next-matching-input-from-input "M-k" #'eshell-previous-matching-input-from-input) (local-leader :keymaps 'eshell-mode-map "c" (proc (interactive) (eshell/clear) (recenter)) "k" #'eshell-kill-process)))) :config (+oreo/create-toggle-function +shell/toggle-eshell "*eshell*" eshell t)) #+end_src *** Eshell pretty symbols and display Pretty symbols and a display record. #+begin_src emacs-lisp (use-package eshell :defer t :pretty (eshell-mode-hook ("lambda" .
