#+TITLE: Emacs Configuration for Alan Pearce
#+OPTIONS: ^:nil
#+PROPERTY: results silent
#+PROPERTY: eval no-export
#+PROPERTY: header-args :comments link
* Introduction
This is a living document, detailing my Emacs configuration using org-mode
* Basics
** Startup
Open Emacs with just a plain window. No graphics or messages, please!
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(put 'inhibit-startup-echo-area-message 'saved-value
(setq inhibit-startup-echo-area-message (user-login-name)))
(setq inhibit-startup-screen t)
(setq gc-cons-threshold 100000000)
(setq file-name-handler-alist nil)
#+END_SRC
** Scratch buffers
I usually use scratch buffers for any sort of text. If I need a
programming mode in one, then I’ll just call it manually. I also like
the buffer to be empty.
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(setq initial-scratch-message ""
initial-major-mode 'text-mode)
#+END_SRC
** Personal Information
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(setq user-mail-address "alan@alanpearce.co.uk"
user-full-name "Alan Pearce")
#+end_src
* Packaging
** Use-package
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(eval-and-compile
(setq package-archives '(("gnu" . "http://elpa.gnu.org/packages/")
("marmalade" . "http://marmalade-repo.org/packages/")
("melpa-stable" . "http://stable.melpa.org/packages/")
("melpa" . "http://melpa.org/packages/"))
package-user-dir (concat "~/.emacs.d/packages/" emacs-version "/elpa")
package-pinned-packages '(("use-package" . melpa-stable)
("diminish" . melpa-stable)
("bind-key" . melpa-stable))
package-archive-priorities '(("melpa-stable" . 10)
("gnu" . 10)
("marmalade" . 5)
("melpa" . 0))
package-menu-async t
package-menu-hide-low-priority t)
(package-initialize)
(unless (package-installed-p 'use-package)
(package-refresh-contents)
(package-install 'use-package)))
(eval-when-compile (require 'use-package))
(unless (featurep 'use-package)
(require 'diminish)
(require 'bind-key)
(use-package use-package
:commands (use-package-autoload-keymap)
:defer 5))
(setq use-package-verbose t
use-package-always-ensure t
package-enable-at-startup nil)
#+END_SRC
* Customize
I don’t really like using customize for normal configuration.
Instead, I use it for things that get saved automatically. That’s why
I use a different file, which is ignored by the VCS. It also means
that it’s not important whether the file exists or not, which is why I
pass =:noerror= to =load=
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(setq custom-file "~/.emacs.d/custom.el")
(load custom-file :noerror :nomessage)
#+END_SRC
* Styles
I prefer an always-visible cursor. Feels less distracting.
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(when (fboundp #'blink-cursor-mode)
(blink-cursor-mode -1))
#+END_SRC
Disable all the bars, unless on OSX, in which case, keep the menu bar.
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(when (and menu-bar-mode (not (eq window-system 'ns)))
(menu-bar-mode -1))
(with-eval-after-load 'scroll-bar
(set-scroll-bar-mode nil))

the buffer, removing the filter.

* Tangling
Taken from [[https://github.com/larstvei/dot-emacs/blob/master/init.org][larstvei/dot-emacs]]. I changed it so that it would work with
my current dotfiles repository structure and work asynchronously,
thanks to [[https://github.com/jwiegley/emacs-async][jwiegley/emacs-async]].
We can use =C-c C-v t= to run =org-babel-tangle=, which extracts the
code blocks from the current file into a source-specific file (in this
case a =.el=-file).
To avoid doing this each time a change is made we can add a function
to the =after-save-hook= ensuring to always tangle and byte-compile
the =org=-document after changes.
