Instead of doing it all in Emacs lisp (which while pretty fun to
write, is not fun to execute outside of Emacs), I wrote a shell script
which generates the same banners, then just linked
+eshell/banner-message to it.
This script creates n labelled terminals, where n is passed in as a
command line argument. This makes demonstrating and understanding
differing layouts in say DWM or some other window manager easier as we
can directly see how the stack changes based on operations.
~ made emacsclient calls with no alternate editors in
eselect (confidence in server)
~ made notmuch option on eselect actually work properly
~ adjusted icons in status scripts
speed~address to download git.aryadevchavali.com->aryadevchavali.com/resources
status/datetime~date format to a decomposed format
status/music_update_bar~pid to kill on dwmblocks
+psearch function to search pacman with less (I use this all the time,
just makes it easier to do in one go)
~speed script to use a slightly larger file so user can get a better
estimate of dl speed
~ada-mode slightly better comments
In hindsight, what other daemon am I going to be using for Emacs?
It's not like I'll be starting two different servers! Even if I was,
Emacs has the ability to assign a new unique name for the server
depending on if another server is already running. Also, having a
name for the main server makes it harder for other services (such as
notmuch-mua.service) to find your Emacs instance.
Each config file is loaded in gamepad-daemon, general then typing then
media. Each profile is pretty self explanatory, and allows for
splitting of responsibilities. Config switches occur through the
guide button.
Xbox controllers are cool, and the ton of buttons allow for a lot of
customisation and ease of use. Hence I created an xboxdrv
configuration which has the standard mouse capabilities as well as the
ability to access an on screen keyboard and some basic media
manipulation capabilities. This is mostly for when I want to sit back
and just CONSOOM content rather than do actual work (hence trying to
remove the keyboard).
This script acts as a library (to be symlinked/copied into your
project) for interfacing with the 'espeak' and 'play' libraries in
python. It also has a 'main' functionality where it acts a study
timer with a 40/20 minute split of work to rest.
