Patch the apropos button types so they call helpful instead of the
built-in describe functions. Also add some bindings to apropos-mode-map
so it behaves like other help modes.
Add `doom/describe-symbol` function, which shows documentation for
callable and variable symbols. If a symbol is both a variable and a
callable, it dispatches to apropos. This gives a better workflow than
`helpful-symbol`, which annoyingly prompts the user.
Remap `describe-symbol` to `doom/describe-symbol`, and update
`+emacs-lisp-lookup-documentation` to call it also.
+ Add doom-switch-frame-hook
+ Replace doom-{enter,exit}-{buffer,window}-hook with
doom-switch-{buffer,window}-hook
+ New switch-buffer hooks run on buffer-list-update-hook rather than
in select-window advice.
+ Blank our buffer-list-update-hook in some places to reduce how many
times it gets triggered.
- Code reduction and refactor across the board (cull unneeded minor
advise, hooks and hacks or update them)
- Revise outdated comments and docstrings
- Reorganize core autoload libraries
- Remove large file check (Emacs already has a built-in one, which we
augment to be even more performant when it does kick in)
- helpful.el can now be disabled completely through package!
+ Now uses an overriding keymap for leader keys, so that it is always
available, even outside of normal/visual states. In insert/emacs
states, or in sessions where evil is absent, an alternative prefix is
used for leader/localleader keys. See these variables:
+ doom-leader-prefix
+ doom-leader-alt-prefix
+ doom-localleader-prefix
+ doom-localleader-alt-prefix
+ Keybinds now support alternative prefixes through the new :alt-prefix
property. This is useful for non-evil users and non-normal evil
states. By default, this is M-SPC (leader) and M-SPC m (localleader).
+ Removed +evil-commands flag from config/default (moved to
feature/evil/+commands.el).
+ config/default/+bindings.el has been split into
config/default/+{evil,emacs}-bindings.el, which one is loaded depends
on whether evil is present or not. The latter is blank, but will soon
be populated with a keybinding scheme for non-evil users (perhaps
inspired by #641).
+ The define-key! macro has been replaced; it is now an alias for
general-def.
+ Added unmap! as an alias for general-unbind.
+ The following modifier key conventions are now enforced for
consistency, across all OSes:
alt/option = meta
windows/command = super
It used to be
alt/option = alt
windows/command = meta
Many of the default keybinds have been updated to reflect this switch,
but it is likely to affect personal meta/super keybinds!
The map! macro has also been rewritten to use general-define-key. Here
is what has been changed:
+ map! no longer works with characters, e.g. (map! ?x #'do-something) is
no longer supported. Keys must be kbd-able strings like "C-c x" or
vectors like [?C-c ?x].
+ The :map and :map* properties are now the same thing. If specified
keymaps aren't defined when binding keys, it is automatically
deferred.
+ The way you bind local keybinds has changed:
;; Don't do this
(map! :l "a" #'func-a
:l "b" #'func-b)
;; Do this
(map! :map 'local "a" #'func-a
"b" #'func-b)
+ map! now supports the following new blocks:
+ (:if COND THEN-FORM ELSE-FORM...)
+ (:alt-prefix PREFIX KEYS...) -- this prefix will be used for
non-normal evil states. Equivalent to :non-normal-prefix in general.
+ The way you declare a which-key label for a prefix key has changed:
;; before
(map! :desc "label" :prefix "a" ...)
;; now
(map! :prefix ("a" . "label") ...)
+ It used to be that map! supported binding a key to a key sequence,
like so:
(map! "a" [?x]) ; pressing a is like pressing x
This functionality was removed *temporarily* while I figure out the
implementation.

undo-tree-load-history was formerly advised with doom*shut-up, which
uses the quiet! macro to suppress output. quiet! accomplishes this by
temporarily redefining message to a no-op function. However, if a fatal
error occurs while this binding is active, in some cases, message will
remain redefined, perpetually silencing all output to the minibuffer.
This tries to mitigate that, at least where undo-tree is concerned.
Also sharp-quotes an unquoted function.
Fixes an issue where reading TAGS files could cause "%s is a large file,
open literally to avoid performance issues?" prompts every time you open
a project file, if the tags file was larger than `doom-large-file-size'
ws-butler only strips trailing spaces on lines that have been modified.
+ ws-butler is disabled if editorconfig enables
trim_trailing_whitespace, which resorts to delete-trailing-whitespace
instead.
+ Updates doom|(enable|disable)-delete-trailing-whitespace hooks to use
ws-butler-mode.
Also adds doom|disable-delete-trailing-whitespace hook, which can be
used to disable this behavior on a per-buffer basis. If you want to turn
off this global behavior:
(remove-hook 'write-file-functions #'delete-trailing-whitespace)
global-command-log-mode isn't autoloaded, but
clm/toggle-command-log-buffer is, and if command-log-mode-is-global is
set, it is equivalent to global-command-log-mode.
Inspired by #786: `:filter-return' expects a function to be given. If neither
"zstd" or "gzip" are found on the executable path, then it gets given nil
instead, which results in sadness when trying to save files.
Persistent undo history is great. I'm hoping that, with
undo-tree-enable-undo-in-region disabled, we can enable this feature
again safely.
Time will tell.
This restores the correct value of noninteractive while core libs are
loading, so packages like recentf can avoid initializing when running
emacs non interactively (thus polluting output or possibly causing
errors).

Shorter, easier-to-type names that better describe their intended
purpose.
The old names are still usable, but deprecated.
