#+title: Doom Emacs Configuration I'll fill out the how and why of this all as I figure out what the hell I'm doing. My current Emacs Configuration is a mess of copy and pasted snippet loosely grouped together. There's a fair number of work around, to transient configuration issues that now no longer exist, and more of stuff cribbed off StackOverflow & held together with string & bubble gum. While not yet calling Configuration Bankrupt's, I am going to try to see if I can restructure this technical debt. This Emacs configuration is written using the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Literate_programming][Literate Programming]] (sort of) paradigm (well sort of) proposed by [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donald_Knuth][Donald Knuth]] in 1984, and uses Hlissner's awesome [[https://github.com/doomemacs/doomemacs][Doom Emacs]] configuration framework. While I like Literate Programming, I kind of think that literate configuration is largely a mixed bag. Literate Programming produces often more words then code. For even medium size configurations discoverability & readability of what is happening can be bogged down in the weight of prose explaining the backstory, current thought, moral pondering, pros & cons, and deciding thoughts. This extra cruft potentially makes understanding more through, but at cost of readability & readability is king. As a compromise I'm going to version both to the verbose =config.org= file and all of the produced configuration files. As an example about that verbosity mentioned prior this entire paragraph could have been skipped. * Document Structure This section will be the what & how of things. There will no directly tangled code in this section. ** Doom Emacs This is built on top of Hlissner's awesome [[https://github.com/doomemacs/doomemacs][Doom Emacs]] configuration frameworks. Configuration is divided into 150 modules, & fair number of convenience functions. Rather than detailing stuff about I'll say to go read [[https://github.com/doomemacs/doomemacs/blob/master/docs/faq.org][FAQs]] & [[https://github.com/doomemacs/doomemacs/blob/master/docs/index.org][Index]]. Configuration is located in the ~DOOMDIR~ directory. This is default value is located is the ~$HOME/.doom.d~ directory. Typically this directory contains: + =init.el= :: Enabled Doom Modules + =config.el= :: General Emacs configuration + =package.el= :: Packages to fetch from MELPA, Github, etc. Additional configuration for scoped functionality will be named as =+name.el=. ** Tangle This org-mode document works by using [[https://orgmode.org/manual/Extracting-Source-Code.html][tangles]]. By default Doom's literate config mode adds any ~#+begin_src~ blocks into the =config.el= file[fn:1]. If you want to tangle to a specific file you pass in a file name. #+begin_src orgmode :tangle no #+begin_src emacs-lisp :tangle "example.el" #+end_src or to disable it tangling for a codeblock set the =:tangle= property in code block header to =no=. #+begin_src orgmode :tangle no #+begin_src orgmode :tangle no #+end_src *** Noweb Reference This document uses [[https://orgmode.org/manual/Noweb-Reference-Syntax.html][noweb reference syntax]]. This allows us to extract bits of configuration into named codeblocks, which can be interpolated into another code block's variable. For example: #+begin_example :tangle no #+NAME: initialization #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp (setq sentence "Never a foot too far, even.") #+END_SRC #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :noweb yes (reverse sentence) #+END_SRC #+end_example will produce #+begin_example #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :noweb yes (setq sentence "Never a foot too far, even.") (reverse sentence) #+END_SRC #+end_example NOTE: unless you explicitly turn off the named code block will be tangled into =config.el=. Use the no tangle option if you want to disable this. * Doom Configuration ** Configuration *** Lexical Bindings There [[https://nullprogram.com/blog/2016/12/22/][minor but non-zero start time benefits]] for using Lexical Bindings comments. All files created should start with #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp ;;; config.el -*- lexical-binding: t; -*- #+END_SRC replace =config.el= with the filename being loaded. **** =packages.el= Also go a head and add this to the =packages.el= #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :tangle "packages.el" ;;; packages.el -*- lexical-binding: t; -*- #+END_SRC *** Warn user not to modify =*.el= files directly. #+name:modification-warning #+begin_src emacs-lisp ;;; This file is generated via tangles from the config.org file.

The =editorcmd= creates a temporary file & opens it with the editor of choice. The domain is included in the temporary file name. We can use this to set the syntax of the file in question.
