Cheatsheet

Zoom in/out

C-x C-[0/-/=] has repeat map

use-package key bindings

Can remap functions as well as keys

(use-package unfill
  :bind ([remap fill-paragraph] . unfill-toggle))

Supports repeat-map

(use-package git-gutter+
  :bind
  (:repeat-map git-gutter+-repeat-map
   ("n" . git-gutter+-next-hunk)
   ("p" . git-gutter+-previous-hunk)
   ("s" . git-gutter+-stage-hunks)
   ("r" . git-gutter+-revert-hunk)))

shortdoc-display-group

shows useful documentation summary on various categories of things

mine for ideas

https://github.com/daviwil/emacs-from-scratch/blob/9388cf6ecd9b44c430867a5c3dad5f050fdc0ee1/Emacs.org

keybindings

emacs

better bindings for page up / page down / home / end center cursor after page up / page down https://karthinks.com/software/more-less-emacs/#bonus-half-screen-scrolling

org-evil bindings

M-hjlk for moving headings

meow

equivalents of evil <, > for indentation

equivalent of gd/gu (use embark?)

gd = (+lookup/definition) gu = (+lookup/references)

equivalent of r (replace character under point, don't enter insert mode)

equivalent of . for repeating edits

learn kmacros

dired

hjkl navigation

: for M-x

read docs/configure

magit

start in insert state in commit message

whitespace cleanup

https://batsov.com/articles/2011/11/25/emacs-tip-number-3-whitespace-cleanup/

straight

lockfile

corfu

https://takeonrules.com/2022/01/17/switching-from-company-to-corfu-for-emacs-completion/

embark

https://karthinks.com/software/fifteen-ways-to-use-embark/

vertico

marginalia

orderless

consult

org

C-RET should enter meow insert state

better embark bindings for moving subtrees

embark binding for tagging header

keybind for narrow

switch to use-package repeat-map for C-c C-n/p

transclude

https://github.com/nobiot/org-transclusion

beautify

https://mstempl.netlify.app/post/beautify-org-mode/ https://github.com/Gavinok/emacs.d/blob/main/lisp/org-config.el

hide markup characters

modeline

diminish/delight

port doom config.el

set font to Fira Code

reveal in finder

(defun first-executable (candidates)
  (seq-find #'executable-find candidates))

;; Reveal in finder/nautilus/whatever
(defun reveal-in-file-browser ()
  (interactive)
  (call-process
   (first-executable '("xdg-open" "open"))
   nil nil nil "."))

(map! :leader
      :desc "Reveal"
      "o o" #'reveal-in-file-browser)

line wrapping

https://elpa.gnu.org/packages/adaptive-wrap.html

Fix magit invisible changes in terminal

Deconflict Emacs and Kitty hotkeys

if nix in path, prefer nix versions of emacs packages

don't use :straight t in use-package declarations instead, have section that conditionally runs straight-use-package directives if necessary

install

yasnippet

undo-tree

parinfer

eglot / lsp-mode

languages

python

nix

typescript

web-mode

meow

questions

Why does xy copy the newline but x;y doesn't?

Beacon mode

How does beacon mode decide whether a movement creates all possible cursors or just one? How to express "insert before the second word of the line"? Why doesn't visit work consistently in beacon mode?

defining C-<something> keys in normal mode seems to fuck everything up for some reason

sexp state

notes

r replaces selection with yank buffer

Notes from Mastering Emacs

C-x # in emacsclient says "done with current buffer"

C-x 8 RET (insert-char) for to insert weird characters

C-h m (describe-mode)

I in embark goes to manual

(global-set-key [remap <A>] '<B>)

remaps all keybindings that refer to <A> to <B>

repeat-mode

describe-repeat-maps to see which keys repeat

tab-bar-mode

replacement for perspective.el offers window configurations as tabs, similar to iTerm/Kitty also look into tab history mode

bookmarks

C-x r (m)ark, (l)ist, jump to (b)ookmark

registers

C-x r (s)tore region, (i)nsert contents C-x r (SPC) store point, (j)ump to register
