Inspired by Aaron Bedra’s emacs configuration, I have converted mine to an org-mode file as well. This should improve load speed over my bespoke number-oriented-multi-file config, as well as improve documentation of my settings. You might notice a few things lifted directly from Aaron’s config.
I want to do a few things early in the startup process, like cleanup some of Emacs’ less savory defaults, so these come first. I’m also trying to wean myself off of emacs-starter-kit, so things that it does early in the startup process that I want to co-opt will go in this section.
There are plenty of things installed outside of the default PATH
.
This allows me to establish additional PATH information. At the
moment, the only things that added are /usr/local/bin for homebrew
on OS X.
Sadly, there’s no built-in variable pointing to the user’s home
directory, so I pull that out based on the environment variable
HOME
, or failing that, the parent directory of the Emacs
configuration.
I also keep some non-ELPA things in my emacs directory.
(setenv "PATH" (concat "/usr/local/bin:/opt/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin" (getenv "PATH")))
(defconst user-home-directory
(or (getenv "HOME")
(expand-file-name ".." user-emacs-directory))
"The user's home directory.")
(add-to-list 'load-path (expand-file-name "site-lisp" user-emacs-directory))
Emacs lisp is really only a subset of common lisp, and I need to have some of the additional functionality to make the configuration and its dependencies work properly, which we get by requiring Common Lisp for Emacs.
(require 'cl)

Nobody likes to have to type out the full yes or no when Emacs asks. Which it does often. Make it one character.

There are some behaviors in Emacs that aren’t intuitive related to
marking text. Specifically, typing or yanking into the selected
region should replace it (delete-selection-mode
), and when the
buffer is changed, the region is de-selected
(transient-mark-mode
).
(delete-selection-mode t)

I use emacsclient
obsessively, especially via my shell alias e

which is mapped to emacsclient -n

have to start the “server”.

Since Emacs 24, Emacs includes the Emacs Lisp Package Archive (ELPA) by default. This provides a nice way to install additional packages. Since the default package archive doesn’t include everything necessary, the marmalade, and melpa repositories are also added. This also prefetches the package list if we don’t have a cached copy yet.
(require 'package)
(package-initialize)
(add-to-list 'package-archives

Most people don’t use menu-bar-mode
, but some things provided by
my add-ons don’t have key combos bound to the menu items they
create, so I enable it. Unfortunately it doesn’t help things in
console mode, so I only enable it in graphical modes.
The default frame title leaves a bit to be desired, so both Aaron’s and ESK’s config include the next tweak.

I like to see where the unnecessary whitespace is in all programming modes, and have a quick key to clean it up. There shall be no tabs in my files, only spaces.

I took these customizations from ESK. First, it’s always nice to quickly see what line you’re on, and then when you put in watchwords, those should show up highlighted. I’d also like to see matching parens so I can be sure my code is structured correctly.

(add-hook 'prog-mode-hook 'seancribbs/add-watchwords)

These customizations I like to use in all “programming modes”,
i.e. modes derived from prog-mode
. The main change here is that
I find comment-dwim
to not “do what I mean” in most cases, so I use
this function that used to be part of ESK or some dependency of
it. Instead of inserting a comment at the end-of-line, it will
toggle commenting out the current line. Unfortunately the key I’m
used to is usually occupied by dabbrev-expand
, so I assign that
to something else.
(defun comment-or-uncomment-region-or-line ()
"Comments or uncomments the region or the current line if there's no active region."
(interactive)
(let (beg end)
(if (region-active-p)

Flymake is super-useful for finding dumb errors in my source files by running compilation in the background. This adds a key to easily jump to the next error in the current buffer.

I write a lot of Erlang. Unlike most people, I don’t like the all
the quirks that come with edts
and other “Emacs IDE for Erlang”
packages, so I load the mode from the latest OTP I have installed.
I also add Quviq QuickCheck and Wrangler.
There’s a few curiosities here. I use multiple Erlang versions
and found kerl
too hacky to maintain, so I wrote a few short
shell functions to build, install, and switch between versions of
OTP I have in $HOME/erlang
. This means I need to pull
erlang-mode
from the latest “tools” application in OTP.
(defconst seancribbs/erlang/root
"/usr/local/Cellar/erlang"
"The root directory where various versions of Erlang are installed")
(defvar seancribbs/erlang/latest
"18.2.1"
"The latest version of Erlang installed.")
(defvar seancribbs/erlang/latest/tools-version
"2.8.2"
"The version of the 'tools' application in the latest Erlang.")
(defun seancribbs/erlang/latest/root ()
"Computes the root directory of the latest Erlang installed."
(expand-file-name seancribbs/erlang/latest seancribbs/erlang/root))
(defun seancribbs/erlang/latest/bin ()
"Computes the latest Erlang's executable directory"
(expand-file-name "bin" (seancribbs/erlang/latest/root)))
(defun seancribbs/erlang/latest/lib ()
"Computes the latest Erlang's library directory"
(expand-file-name "erlang" (expand-file-name "lib" (seancribbs/erlang/latest/root))))
(defun seancribbs/erlang/latest/emacs ()
"Computes the location of the OTP emacs mode."
(cl-reduce 'expand-file-name
(list "emacs"
(format "tools-%s" seancribbs/erlang/latest/tools-version)
"lib"
(seancribbs/erlang/latest/lib))
:from-end t))
Now that we have that boilerplate out of the way, we can add the mode. First we add the tools/emacs directory to the load path, set the Erlang root, add its binaries to the executable path and require the mode.
Somehow Erlang mode is not derived from prog-mode
, so my usual
additions don’t apply, so I need to add them to make it
consistent.
