emacs-profiles
Configuration profiles for Emacs.
You can use emacs-profiles to switch between multiple sets of configuration at a couple of key-presses.
Installation
Manual
Save the file emacs-profiles.el to disk and add the directory containing it to load-path using a command in your .emacs file like:
(add-to-list 'load-path "~/.emacs.d/")
The above line assumes that you've placed the file into the Emacs directory '.emacs.d'.
Start the package with:
(require 'emacs-profiles)
Marmalade
If you have Marmalade added as a repository to your Emacs, you can just install emacs-profiles with
M-x package-install emacs-profiles RET
Usage
Set a key-binding to open the configuration menu that displays all configured configurations.
(global-set-key (kbd "C-M-`") 'emacs-profiles-show-menu)
You can also define your configuration as
(emacs-profiles-set-profiles-data
(list '("1"
"Office"
(lambda ()
(invert-face 'default)))
'("2"
"Home"
(lambda ()
(menu-bar-mode -1)
(tool-bar-mode -1)
(scroll-bar-mode -1)))))
Each item in the list should contain three elements:
- Key to be pressed to load the profile
- Name of the profile
- A function to be executed against the key, the function that contains all scripts to be executed to apply that particular configuration.
Lastly, you can also call emacs-profiles-show-menu at startup so that you can choose which profile to start Emacs in when you start it.
