keybindings

emacs

better bindings for page up / page down / home / end center cursor after page up / page down

org-evil bindings

M-hjlk for moving headings

vertico

C-hjkl for navigating files

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

magit

undo-tree

parinfer

line wrapping

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

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

Emacs packages installed via Nix don't work in Mac app

Load terminfo on MacOS from nix profile

source nix env vars from somewhere?

direnv

eglot / lsp-mode

corfu

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

embark

function for org tagging

org

C-RET should enter meow insert state

better embark bindings for moving subtrees

embark binding for tagging header

keybind for narrow

beautify

https://mstempl.netlify.app/post/beautify-org-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

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
