EchoAbstract / emacs

Emacs Config (actually public this time)

Brian Wilson’s emacs config

This is Brian’s emacs config, it’s geared towards my specific use cases, in particular:

• I’m a C++/Web programmer in my day job for Oblong Industries
  • I also use Python, React, and Electron
• I heavily use both linux, mac, and windows… but I cut my teeth on *BSD distributions
• Outside of work I use C++, C, Ada, Go, Julia, Python, and JS/HTML
• Despite my initial resistence to it, I’m a git convert and use it for everything
• While I’d like to use org-mode more, compatibility forces me to focus more on markdown
• I really like scheme and lisp, but can’t really justify major focus on them, hwoever slime, geiser, and lisp machines have really influenced how I develop
• I used to use emacs for everything, including mail and newsreading, but gmail is somewhat difficult to use with emacs so I don’t do that much anymore :-(
• Finally, I keep work specific code in a separate repo and load it on-demand based on if that repo is present

If any of this sounds useful, read on!

Platform Support

Windows

I’ve found that having certain unicode chars in the mode line causes all updates on windows to be really slow, so I’ve removed my usage of those chars.

Major Modes

C/C++

Other notes

I like bright output in compilation, so I colorize the compilation output, and I jump to the end (which is great if there’s a small number of errors, but terrible if there is a large number of errors.

I also force subword-mode, as I code with case.

Go
