There are a few kinks to iron out, but for the most part it's done. Doom
Emacs, powered by straight. Goodbye gnutls and elpa/quelpa issues.
This update doesn't come with rollback or lockfile support yet, but I
will eventually include one with Doom, and packages will be (by default,
anyway) updated in sync with Doom.
Relevant threads: #1577#1566#1473
- Adds the auto-minor-mode package to replace our in-house
implementation.
- Merges associate! into the def-project-mode! macro because associate!
on its own is less useful than auto-minor-mode-alist,
auto-minor-mode-magic-alist or hooks.
- Changes the semantics of :modes and :add-hooks properties of
def-project-mode!. Its arguments are evaluated as is; lists will need
to be quoted.
squash! core-lib: remove associate! macro
- file! replaces FILE!
- dir! replaces DIR!
- doom-{glob,path,dir} have the power to construct paths out of the
segment pieces provided to it.
- Move doom-files-in to core-lib and refactor to use the above.
- Remove core-os and move many of its settings out to other core
libraries, where they belong
- Significantly improve commenting & compartmentalization of many
settings
- Correct some mis-named public hooks (that were named as if they were
private)
- Move the vast majority of optimizations to "Optimizations" section in
core.el
- Don't activate xclip-mode or osx-clipboard-mode if we're accessing
Emacs through an SSH connection (does more bad than good there)
- Add fast-but-imprecise-scrolling = t
- Set bidi-display-reordering = 'left-to-right, at the recommendation of
an Emacs dev. Apparently setting it to nil is undefined, as Emacs is
designed to always assume it's set; setting it explicitly to
left-to-right will still do what was originally intended by turning it
off: to reduce line/text scans for bidirectional text, which gives us
a moderate boost in general runtime snappiness
- Set inhibit-compacting-fon-caches = t on windows (where it struggles
especially with icon fonts)
- Disables "literal" mode for very large files (because I will be
backporting so-long.el from Emacs 27 in the next commit)
The two doom-gc-* variables in init.el couples the rest of the config to
these two files. The bulk of GC/file-handler optimization was moved into
core.el and simplified (all that idle-timer voodoo was overkill).
Also adds (setq frame-inhibit-implied-reize t) to early-init, which
speeds up startup a fair bit in some edge cases with larger fonts.
squash! Simplify and decouple init files
This is second of three big naming convention changes. In this commit,
we change the naming conventions for hook functions and variable
functions:
1. Replace the bar | to indicate a hook function with a -h suffix, e.g.
doom|init-ui -> doom-init-ui-h
doom|run-local-var-hooks -> doom-run-local-var-hooks-h
2. And add a -fn suffix for functions meant to be set on variables,
e.g.
(setq magit-display-buffer-function #'+magit-display-buffer-fn)
See ccf327f8 for the reasoning behind these changes.
This is first of three big naming convention updates that have been a
long time coming. With 2.1 on the horizon, all the breaking updates will
batched together in preparation for the long haul.
In this commit, we do away with the asterix to communicate that a
function is an advice function, and we replace it with the '-a' suffix.
e.g.
doom*shut-up -> doom-shut-up-a
doom*recenter -> doom-recenter-a
+evil*static-reindent -> +evil--static-reindent-a
The rationale behind this change is:
1. Elisp's own formatting/indenting tools would occasionally struggle
with | and * (particularly pp and cl-prettyprint). They have no
problem with / and :, fortunately.
2. External syntax highlighters (like pygmentize, discord markdown or
github markdown) struggle with it, sometimes refusing to highlight
code beyond these symbols.
3. * and | are less expressive than - and -- in communicating the
intended visibility, versatility and stability of a function.
4. It complicated the regexps we must use to search for them.
5. They were arbitrary and over-complicated to begin with, decided
on haphazardly way back when Doom was simply "my private config".
Anyhow, like how predicate functions have the -p suffix, we'll adopt the
-a suffix for advice functions, -h for hook functions and -fn for
variable functions.
Other noteable changes:
- Replaces advice-{add,remove}! macro with new def-advice!
macro. The old pair weren't as useful. The new def-advice! saves on a
lot of space.
- Removed "stage" assertions to make sure you were using the right
macros in the right place. Turned out to not be necessary, we'll
employ better checks later.
We want +snippets-dir to be first in yas-snippet-dirs. To ensure this,
doom-snippets should be loaded immediately before it is added to it, if
possible.
- Introduces the +snippets/new (SPC s n) command for creating a new
private snippet
- Introduces the +snippets/new-lias (SPC s N) command for creating a new
private snippet alias, which will invoke another snippet (you will be
prompted to select one). This will only work with the emacs-snippets
library bundled with Doom Emacs, however, as it depends on its API.
- Introduces +snippets/edit (SPC s c) for modifying existing snippets.
How this differs from yas-visit-snippet-file is it will copy the
contents of built-in snippets into a buffer primed for your private
snippets (in DOOMDIR/snippets), while yas-visit-snippet-file will
simply open the originating snippet.
- Introduces the +snippets/find (SPC s ?),
+snippets/find-for-current-mode (SPC s /) and
+snippets/find-private (SPC s f) commands for, respectively, finding a
snippet file among *all* directories in yas-snippet-dirs, finding a
snippet for the current major mode (plus parents), and finding a
snippet from among your private library. This opens built-in snippets
in read-only mode, but you can press C-c C-e to open it in
+snippets/edit.
ysiw<testRET will transform
String
To
test<String>
In C-style major modes that use angle bracket generics/templates (e.g.
C++, rust, C#, java, swift, and typescript).
Since both the rust-mode and rustic packages aggressively fight for
precedence in auto-mode-alist, rustic *must* be loaded after rust-mode,
so we switch from rust-mode to rustic-mode if it's available. This only
needs to happen once.
