#+title: Core packages
#+author: Aryadev Chavali
#+description: The core components of my configuration
#+date: 2023-09-29
#+property: header-args:emacs-lisp :tangle core.el :comments link :results none
#+options: toc:nil
#+startup: noindent
Packages that are absolutely necessary for the rest of the
configuration. 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.

* Evil
My editor journey started off with Vim rather than Emacs, so my brain
has imprinted on its style. 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")
"wT" #'window-swap-states ; transpose two windows
"wd" #'delete-frame)

"r" #'evil-replace-state
"zC" #'hs-hide-level

"'" #'evil-goto-mark

"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. Don't let evil-mc setup it's own
keymap because it uses 'gr' as its prefix, which I don't like.
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(use-package evil-mc
:after evil
:init
(defvar evil-mc-key-map (make-sparse-keymap))
:general
(nmap
:infix "gz"

;; (evil-mc-define-vars)

;; (add-hook 'evil-insert-state-entry-hook #'evil-mc-resume-cursors)
(global-evil-mc-mode))
#+end_src
** Evil collection
Provides a community based set of keybindings for most modes in
Emacs. I don't necessarily like all my modes having these bindings
though, as I may disagree with some. So I use it in a mode to mode basis.
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(use-package evil-collection
:after evil)
#+end_src
** Evil number
Increment/decrement a number at point like Vim does, but use bindings
that don't conflict with Emacs default.
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(use-package evil-numbers
:after evil
:general
(nmmap
"+" #'evil-numbers/inc-at-pt
"-" #'evil-numbers/dec-at-pt))
#+end_src
* Completion
Emacs is a text based interface. 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. It has
a great set of features with little to no pain with setting up.
*** Ivy Core
Setup for ivy, in preparation for counsel. Turn on ivy-mode just
after init.
Setup vim-like bindings for the minibuffer ("M-(j|k)" for down|up the
selection list).
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(use-package ivy
:defer t
:hook (after-init-hook . ivy-mode)

:PROPERTIES:

:END:
Ido is a very old completion package that still works great to this
day. Though it is limited in its scope (and may thus be called a
completion add-on rather than a full on framework), it is still a very
powerful package. With the use of ido-completing-read+, it may be used
similarly to a fully fledged completion framework.

** Amx
Amx is a fork of Smex that works to enhance the
execute-extended-command interface. It also provides support for ido
or ivy (though I'm likely to use ido here) and allows you to switch
between them.
It provides a lot of niceties such as presenting the key bind when
looking for a command.

** Company
Company is the auto complete system I use. I don't like having heavy
setups for company as it only makes it slower to use. In this case,
just setup some evil binds for company.

* Pretty symbols
Prettify symbols mode allows for users to declare 'symbols' that
replace text within certain modes. Though this may seem like useless
eye candy, it has aided my comprehension and speed of recognition
(recognising symbols is easier than words).
Essentially a use-package keyword which makes declaring pretty symbols
for language modes incredibly easy. Checkout my [[C/C++][C/C++]] configuration
for an example.
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(use-package prog-mode
:straight nil
:init
(setq prettify-symbols-unprettify-at-point t)
:config
(with-eval-after-load "use-package-core"
(add-to-list 'use-package-keywords ':pretty)
(defun use-package-normalize/:pretty (_name-symbol _keyword args)
args)
(defun use-package-handler/:pretty (name _keyword args rest state)

(mapcar
#'(lambda (arg)
(let ((mode (car arg))
(rest (cdr arg)))
`(add-hook
',mode
#'(lambda nil
(setq prettify-symbols-alist ',rest)
(prettify-symbols-mode)))))
args)))))
#+end_src
Here's a collection of keywords and possible associated symbols for
any prog language of choice. Mostly for reference and copying.

* Window management
Emacs' default window management is quite bad, eating other windows on
a whim and not particularly caring for the current window setup.
Thankfully you can change this via the ~display-buffer-alist~ which
matches buffer names with how the window for the buffer should be
displayed. I add a use-package keyword to make ~display-buffer-alist~
records within a use-package call.
I have no idea whether it's optimal AT ALL, but it works for me.
2024-04-23: Found this option ~switch-to-buffer-obey-display-actions~
which makes manual buffer switches obey the same constraints via
~display-buffer-alist~ as creating the buffer automatically.
#+begin_src emacs-lisp

** Some display records
Using the ~:display~ keyword, setup up some ~display-buffer-alist~
records. This is mostly for packages that aren't really configured
(like [[info:woman][woman]]) or packages that were configured before
(like [[Ivy][Ivy]]).
#+begin_src emacs-lisp

* Auto typing
Snippets are a pretty nice way of automatically inserting code. Emacs
provides a ton of packages by default to do this, but there are great
packages to install as well.
Abbrevs and skeletons make up a popular solution within Emacs default.
Abbrevs are for simple expressions wherein the only input is the key,
and the output is some Elisp function. They provide a lot of inbuilt
functionality and are quite useful. Skeletons, on the other hand, are
for higher level insertions
The popular external solution is Yasnippet. Yasnippet is a great
package for snippets, which I use heavily in programming and org-mode.
I setup here the global mode for yasnippet and a collection of
snippets for ease of use.
** Abbrevs
Just define a few abbrevs for various date-time operations. Also
define a macro that will assume a function for the expansion, helping
with abstracting a few things away.
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(use-package abbrev
:straight nil
:hook
(prog-mode-hook . abbrev-mode)
(text-mode-hook . abbrev-mode)
:init
(defmacro +abbrev/define-abbrevs (abbrev-table &rest abbrevs)
`(progn
,@(mapcar #'(lambda (abbrev)
`(define-abbrev
,abbrev-table
,(car abbrev)
""
(proc (insert ,(cadr abbrev)))))
abbrevs)))
(setq save-abbrevs nil)
:config
(+abbrev/define-abbrevs
global-abbrev-table
("sdate"
(format-time-string "%Y-%m-%d" (current-time)))

(format-time-string "%H:%M:%S" (current-time)))
("sday"
(format-time-string "%A" (current-time)))
("smon"

#+end_src
** WAIT Skeletons
:PROPERTIES:
:header-args:emacs-lisp: :tangle no
:END:
Defines a macro for generating a skeleton + abbrev for a given mode.
Doesn't sanitise inputs because I assume callers are /rational/ actors
who would *only* use this for their top level Emacs config.
Honestly didn't find much use for this currently, so disabled.
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(use-package skeleton
:straight nil
:after abbrev
:config
(defmacro +autotyping/gen-skeleton-abbrev (mode abbrev &rest skeleton)
(let* ((table (intern (concat (symbol-name mode) "-abbrev-table")))
(skeleton-name (intern (concat "+skeleton/" (symbol-name mode) "/" abbrev))))
`(progn
(define-skeleton
,skeleton-name
""
,@skeleton)
(define-abbrev ,table
,abbrev
""
',skeleton-name)))))
#+end_src
** Auto insert
Allows inserting text immediately upon creating a new buffer with a
given name. Supports skeletons for inserting text. To make it easier
for later systems to define their own auto inserts, I define a
~use-package~ keyword ~auto-insert~ which allows one to define an
entry for ~auto-insert-alist~.
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(use-package autoinsert
:straight nil
:demand t
:hook (after-init-hook . auto-insert-mode)

use-package declarations.
