+ New `input` and `buffer` support for :defer in def-package! can now
defer packages until the first command invoked after startup or first
interactive buffer switch, respectively
+ Exploit these new :defer techniques to lazy-load many core packages,
netting Doom a 20-30% decrease in startup time
+ Various userland macros (like package!, def-package-hook!, packages!,
and disable-packages!) will now throw an error if used incorrectly
(i.e. outside of their intended files; e.g. package! should be used in
packages.el files)
+ Removed support for multiple/nested doom! calls. There should only be
THE ONE in ~/.doom.d/init.el (or ~/.config/doom/init.el)
+ Fix an issue where load-path and auto-mode-list modifications would
not persist because doom-packages-file was cached too late.
+ Added package-activated-list to cached variables in
doom-packages-file, thus we no longer need custom-file.
+ Load Doom core files from doom-initialize. Now doom-initialize can be
called from state-dependent non-interactive functions, instead of
reloading core/core.el, which was clumsy
+ Removed the doom-post-init-hook hook. There was no reason for it to
exist when doom-init-hook can simply be appended to
Let whitespace dynamically set `whitespace-line-column` depending on the current
state of the variable `fill-column`. Changing the value to `nil` does exactly that.
+ 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
Phases out dependence on the doom-kill-buffer workflow, which ensured
the user would always land on a real buffer (or the fallback buffer)
after killing a buffer. This required all quit-window, kill-this-buffer
and various buffer-killing commands be advised or remapped. There was no
need, kill-buffer-query-functions is better.
Also introduces a new hook: doom-init-theme-hook. doom-init-ui-hook
still exists, but is used for UI initialization (surprise), while theme
hooks should be moved over.
+ Parts of my smartparens config that were personal preference have been
moved to my private module.
+ The css-mode config was redundant and was removed
+ Moved lang-specific config to their respective modules
+ Markdown config was redundant with native electric support, and thus
removed.
