maildir-expanded-prefix and maildir-default-prefix were already set to
their defaults, and the action-text change seemed arbitrary.
Indirectly fixes#1175
load!'s first argument is no longer a symbol (that will cause
void-variable errors now) to save on unnecessary interning and simplify
compile-time logic. It accepts any valid form that evaluates to a string
now.
If you use load!, you need to change its argument to a string!
e.g. (load! +my-module) => (load! "+my-module")
+ map-delete is shorter and faster than assq-delete-all
+ map-put is simpler than the delete-then-set workflow
+ map-merge is great for merging default and user settings
set! used to aggressively evaluate its arguments (at expansion-time),
even if placed inside an after! block. This causes unavoidable errors if
those arguments use functions/variables that don't exist yet.
Fixes#112
+ 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.
