Emacs config

This is my emacs configuration. It is structured as an org-mode file, to easily provide context and documentation.

Last export:

Setup

Early init

This ends up in early-init.el.

  ;; -*- lexical-binding: t; -*-
  ;; Prevent package.el from loading packages until we're ready for it
  (setq package-enable-at-startup nil)
  ;; Don't resize the frame to preserve the number of columns or lines
  ;; being displayed when setting font, menu bar, tool bar, tab bar,
  ;; internal borders, fringes, or scroll bars.  Since I use a tiling
  ;; window manager, this option is 1. useless anyways and 2. _terribly_ expensive.
  (setq frame-inhibit-implied-resize t)
  ;; Suppress warnings and errors during asynchronous native compilation
  (setq native-comp-async-report-warnings-errors nil)
  ;; Prevent unwanted runtime builds; packages are compiled ahead-of-time when
  ;; they are installed and site files are compiled when gccemacs is installed.
  ;; (setq comp-deferred-compilation nil)
  (setq native-comp-deferred-compilation nil)

  ;; Prevent unwanted runtime builds in gccemacs (native-comp); packages are
  ;; compiled ahead-of-time when they are installed and site files are compiled
  ;; when gccemacs is installed.
  (setq comp-deferred-compilation nil)

  ;; This should fix input lag by ~80% when using PGTK
  (setq-default pgtk-wait-for-event-timeout 0)

Enable lexical binding

Setting lexical-binding to t can improve startup time. This has to be first!

  ;; -*- lexical-binding: t; -*-

Personal variables

This sets some variables with my personal preferences for easy customization

  (defvar my/default-font "RecMonoLinear Nerd Font")
  (defvar my/variable-width-font "Iosevka Aile")
  (defvar my/comment-font "RecMonoCasual Nerd Font")
  (defvar my/default-font-height 120)
  (defvar my/default-font-weight 'light)
  (defvar my/default-font-width 'normal)
  (defvar my/variable-width-font-height 1.1)
  (defvar my/config-file-path (expand-file-name "config.org" user-emacs-directory))
  (defvar my/snippets-dir (expand-file-name "snippets" user-emacs-directory))
  (defvar my/local-init-file (expand-file-name "local-init.el" user-emacs-directory))
  (defvar my/leader "C-c")

And my personal info.

  (setq user-full-name "Erwin Boskma"
        user-mail-address "erwin@datarift.nl")

Garbage collector

Increasing the garbage collector threshold should also improve startup time. This increases it from 800 kB to 128MB

  (setq gc-cons-threshold (* 128 1024 1024))

This resets the threshold back to it's default. This should not be done if lsp-mode is enabled, it needs the higher threshold.

  (add-hook 'after-init-hook
            (lambda ()
              (setq gc-cons-threshold 800000)
              (message "gc-cons-threshold restored to %s"
                       gc-cons-threshold)))

Increase process output buffer

LSP responses can be rather large, in the 800KiB - 3MiB range. 2MiB is a decent value

  (setq read-process-output-max (* 2 1024 1024))

Package sources

Add repositories where packages are installed from.

    (setq package-archives '(("gnu" . "https://elpa.gnu.org/packages/")
                             ("nongnu" . "https://elpa.nongnu.org/nongnu/")
                             ("melpa" . "https://melpa.org/packages/")
                             ("org" . "https://orgmode.org/elpa/")
                             ("onpa" . "https://olanilsson.bitbucket.io/packages/")))

Bootstrap use-package

If use-package is not installed, install it.

NOTE: Disabled because it is builtin since emacs 29

  (require 'package)
  (package-initialize)
  (unless (package-installed-p 'use-package)
    (package-refresh-contents)
    (package-install 'use-package)
    (cl-eval-when 'compile (require 'use-package)))

By default packages should always be installed from the package manager. This is equivalent to setting :ensure t on each call to use-package. To override this for a package (e.g. because it is builtin, or a subpackage), use :ensure nil. This is done automatically for packages that use :load-path.

  (setq use-package-always-ensure t)

general.el

general.el provides a more convenient way for binding keys in emacs. It also integrates with use-package with the :general keyword.

  (use-package general
    :demand t
    :config
    (progn
      (general-define-key
       :prefix my/leader
       "a" 'org-agenda
       "k" 'general-describe-keybindings)
      (general-define-key
       "C-M-z" 'zap-to-char
       "M-z" 'zap-up-to-char)))

Disable the customize interface

The customize functionality is annoying and messes up regularly. Stuff it has done so far:

  • Clobber the path to mix in Elixir projects

This has been borrowed from Doom Emacs

  (dolist (sym '(customize-option customize-browse customize-group customize-face
                                  customize-rogue customize-saved customize-apropos
                                  customize-changed customize-unsaved customize-variable
                                  customize-set-value customize-customized customize-set-variable
                                  customize-apropos-faces customize-save-variable
                                  customize-apropos-groups customize-apropos-options
                                  customize-changed-options customize-save-customized))
    (put sym 'disabled (concat "This config doesn't support `customize', configure Emacs from " user-emacs-directory "/config.org instead")))
  (put 'customize-themes 'disabled (concat "Use `load-theme' in " user-emacs-directory "/config.org instead"))

Custom packages location

Emacs only includes files directly under user-emacs-directory. I like to keep custom packages in a separate elisp/ subdirectory.

  (add-to-list 'load-path (expand-file-name "elisp/" user-emacs-directory))

Record key frequency

Records what keys are used the most, so I can see if I can optimise shortcuts

  (use-package keyfreq
    :config
    (keyfreq-mode 1)
    (keyfreq-autosave-mode 1))

Save minibuffer history

  (use-package savehist
    :ensure nil
    :init
    (savehist-mode))

Preferences

Don't display the help screen at startup

  (setq inhibit-startup-screen t)

Enable line wrapping

  (global-visual-line-mode 1)

Disable title bar, toolbar and scroll bar

  ; This needs to go before scroll-bar-mode
  (setq-default default-frame-alist '((undecorated . t)))
  (tool-bar-mode -1)
  (menu-bar-mode -1)
  (scroll-bar-mode -1)

Don't show the warnings buffer for anything lesser than an error.

  (setq warning-minimum-level :error)

Keep buffers up-to-date automatically

  (global-auto-revert-mode t)

Automatically scroll the compile buffer

  (setq compilation-scroll-output 'first-error)

Always display line numbers, and the relative line number

  (setq display-line-numbers-type 'relative)
  (global-display-line-numbers-mode)

Show matching parenthesese

  (show-paren-mode 1)
  (setq show-paren-style 'expression)

Surround marked text with (), [] or {}

  (electric-pair-mode 1)

Centralise backup files (the filename~ files), so they don't pollute the project.

  (setq backup-directory-alist '((".*" . "~/.local/share/emacs/backup"))
        backup-by-copying t   ; Don't delink hardlinks
        version-control t     ; Use version numbers on backup files
        delete-old-versions t ; Automatically delete obsolete backups
        kept-new-versions 20  ; How many of the newest versions to keep
        kept-old-versions 5   ; And how many of the oldest
        )

Same for auto save files (the ones with the #)

  (setq auto-save-file-name-transforms '((".*" "~/.local/share/emacs/autosave/" t)))

Default indenting to spaces. If tabs are necessary, this can be set buffer-local. A single tab character can be added using C-q TAB

  (setq-default indent-tabs-mode nil)

Show trailing whitespace

  (setq show-trailing-whitespace t)

Delete trailing whitespace on save.

  (add-hook 'before-save-hook 'delete-trailing-whitespace)

Sentences end in one space, not two. We're not using typewriters.

  (setq sentence-end-double-space nil)

Don't move files to trash when deleting.

  (setq delete-by-moving-to-trash nil)

Restore cursor position when re-opening a file

  (save-place-mode t)

Prefer to open frames in a horizontal split and make sure they're of a decent width

  (setq split-height-threshold nil
        window-min-width 100)

Set fill column to 80

  (setq-default fill-column 80)

Kill whole lines instead of clearing them

  (setq kill-whole-line t)

Interface

Easy edit config file

Disabled because the configuration is handled by Nix using emacs-overlay

  (defun find-config ()
    "Edit config.org"
    (interactive)
    (find-file my/config-file-path))

  (general-define-key
       :prefix my/leader
       "c" 'find-config)

Appearance

Enable pixel scrolling.

  (setq pixel-scroll-precision-mode t)

I like the dracula theme

  (use-package dracula-theme
    :init
    (load-theme 'dracula :no-confirm))

Monokai Pro is also pretty.

  (use-package monokai-pro-theme
    :init
    (load-theme 'monokai-pro-spectrum :no-confirm))

So is Catppuccin

    (use-package catppuccin-theme
      :init
      (setq catppuccin-flavor 'mocha)
      (load-theme 'catppuccin :no-confirm))

Set fonts.

  (defun my/set-font-size (&optional frame)
    (let* ((frame (or frame (selected-frame)))
           (geometry (frame-monitor-attribute 'geometry frame))
           (mm-size (frame-monitor-attribute 'mm-size frame))
           (width-px (caddr geometry))
           (width-mm (car mm-size))
           (width-in (/ width-mm 25.4))
           (display-dpi (/ width-px width-in))
           (font-height (cond
                         ((< display-dpi 110) 120)
                         ((< display-dpi 130) 140)
                         ((< display-dpi 160) 160)
                         (t 160))))
      (set-face-attribute 'default frame :height font-height)))

  (add-hook 'server-after-make-frame-hook 'my/set-font-size)
  (add-hook 'after-make-frame-functions 'my/set-font-size)

  (defun my/setup-fonts ()
    (set-face-attribute 'default nil :family my/default-font :weight 'light)
    (set-face-attribute 'font-lock-comment-face nil :font my/comment-font)
    (set-face-attribute 'variable-pitch nil
                        :font my/variable-width-font
                        :height my/variable-width-font-height))
  (add-hook 'after-init-hook 'my/setup-fonts)

Emoji support

    (defun set-emoji-font ()
      (when (member "Twitter Color Emoji" (font-family-list))
        (set-fontset-font t 'emoji (font-spec :family "Twitter Color Emoji") nil 'prepend)))

    (use-package emojify
      :defer t
      :init
      (setq emojify-display-style 'unicode)
      :config
      (set-emoji-font)
      :hook (server-after-make-frame . set-emoji-font))

        (add-to-list 'gptel-directives '(commit . "You are an expert programmer summarizing a git diff.
  Reminders about the git diff format:
  For every file, there are a few metadata lines, like (for example):
  ```
  diff --git a/lib/index.js b/lib/index.js
  index aadf691..bfef603 100644
  --- a/lib/index.js
  +++ b/lib/index.js
  ```
  This means that `lib/index.js` was modified in this commit. Note that this is only an example.
  Then there is a specifier of the lines that were modified.
  A line starting with `+` means it was added.
  A line that starting with `-` means that line was deleted.
  A line that starts with neither `+` nor `-` is code given for context and better understanding.
  It is not part of the diff.
  After the git diff of the first file, there will be an empty line, and then the git diff of the next file.

  Do not include the file name as another part of the comment.
  Do not use the characters `[` or `]` in the summary.
  Write every summary comment in a new line.
  Comments should be in a bullet point list, each line starting with a `-`.
  The summary should not include comments copied from the code.
  The output should be easily readable. When in doubt, write fewer comments and not more. Do not output comments that
  simply repeat the contents of the file.
  Readability is top priority. Write only the most important comments about the diff.

  EXAMPLE SUMMARY COMMENTS:
  ```
  - Raise the amount of returned recordings from `10` to `100`
  - Fix a typo in the github action name
  - Move the `octokit` initialization to a separate file
  - Add an OpenAI API for completions
  - Lower numeric tolerance for test files
  - Add 2 tests for the inclusive string split function
  ```
  Most commits will have less comments than this examples list.
  The last comment does not include the file names,
  because there were more than two relevant files in the hypothetical commit.
  Do not include parts of the example in your summary.
  It is given only as an example of appropriate comments.
