:feature was a "catch-all" category. Many of its modules fit better in
other categories, so they've been moved:
- feature/debugger -> tools/debugger
- feature/evil -> editor/evil
- feature/eval -> tools/eval
- feature/lookup -> tools/lookup
- feature/snippets -> editor/snippets
- feature/file-templates -> editor/file-templates
- feature/workspaces -> ui/workspaces
More potential changes in the future:
- A new :term category for terminal emulation modules (eshell, term and
vterm).
- A new :os category for modules dedicated to os-specific functionality.
The :tools macos module would fit here, but so would modules for nixos
and arch.
- A new :services category for web-service integration, like wakatime,
twitter, elfeed, gist and pastebin services.
- SPC o r now prompts for a REPL to open when none was found for the
current buffer.
- REPL handlers must now follow the naming convention "*/open*-repl".
e.g. +python/open-ipython-repl, +emacs-lisp/open-repl, etc.
- +eval/open-repl has been split in two:
- +eval/open-repl-other-window
- +eval/open-repl-same-window
projectile-project-root no longer returns `default-directory` if not in
a project (it returns nil). As such, doom-project-* functions (and their
uses) have been refactored.
+ doom-project-p & doom-project-root are aliases for
projectile-project-p & projectile-project-root.
+ doom-project-{p,root,name,expand} now has a DIR argument (for
consistency, since projectile-project-name and
projectile-project-expand do not).
+ The nocache parameter is no longer necessary, as projectile's caching
behavior is now more sane.
+ Removed some projectile advice/hacks that are no longer necessary.
+ Updated unit tests
We would need to use `'equal` for comparison, but Emacs 25 only allows `'eq`.
Using `advice-add` to override `alist-get` does not work, because `setf`
has special handling for `alist-get`.
`repl.el`: Switch to a hash table which already supports multiple comparison
functions, and changing of elements even in Emacs 25.
`eshell/autoload/settings.el`: use conditional set-or-push.
Drop `doom*alist-get`, it is unused now.
Thanks to @hlissner for the reimplementation.
+ enable lexical-scope everywhere (lexical-binding = t): ~5-10% faster
startup; ~5-20% general boost
+ reduce consing, function calls & garbage collection by preferring
cl-loop & dolist over lambda closures (for mapc[ar], add-hook, and
various cl-lib filter/map/reduce functions) -- where possible
+ prefer functions with dedicated opcodes, like assq (see byte-defop's
in bytecomp.el for more)
+ prefer pcase & cond (faster) over cl-case
+ general refactor for code readability
+ ensure naming & style conventions are adhered to
+ appease byte-compiler by marking unused variables with underscore
+ defer minor mode activation to after-init, emacs-startup or
window-setup hooks; a customization opportunity for users + ensures
custom functionality won't interfere with startup.
