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 Literate Programming (sort of) paradigm (well sort of) proposed by Donald Knuth in 1984, and uses Hlissner's awesome Doom Emacs configuration framework. While I like Literate Programming, literate configuration can be a mixed bag. Literate Programming produces more prose then code. Discoverability & readability can be drowned out under the prose about the current thoughts, pros & cons, backstory, deciding thoughts, & moral pondering. While this verbosity1 aids documentation and understanding, its often at the cost of readability. As a compromise I'm going to version both to the verbose config.org file and all of the produced configuration files; this will allow us to git blame both the this file and the generated files.
Document Structure
Doom Emacs
I'm utilizing Hlissner's Doom Emacs frameworks. Doom Emac's configuration is divided into 150 modules, & fair number of convenience functions. Rather than detailing stuff about I'll say to go read FAQs & Index.
Configuration is located in the $DOOMDIR directory; this can be located either2 at ~/.doom.d or $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/doom.
Tangle
This org-mode document works by using tangles. By default Doom's literate config mode adds any #+begin_src blocks into the config.el file3. If you want to tangle to a specific file you pass in a file name.
#+begin_src emacs-lisp :tangle "example.el"
or to disable it tangling for a codeblock set the :tangle property in code block header to no.
#+begin_src orgmode :tangle noNoweb Reference
This document uses 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:
#+NAME: initialization #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp (setq sentence "Never a foot too far, even.") #+END_SRC #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :noweb yes <<initialization>> (reverse sentence) #+END_SRC
will produce
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :noweb yes (setq sentence "Never a foot too far, even.") (reverse sentence) #+END_SRC
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.
Files tree
There's a fair number of files located in $DOOMDIR. Some are configuration, some are additional tooling not use directly by emacs.

Emacs Configuration Files
Doom will automatically load the following files.
-
init.el - Enabled Doom Modules
-
package.el - Packages to fetch from MELPA, Github, etc.
-
config.el - General Emacs configuration
Any additional files should follow the pattern of +name.el and should be scoped to that individual purpose.
This should be loaded by the config.el file by using the load! macro4 e.g.
(load! "+name")Currently this includes
-
+orgmode.el - Additional configuration for Orgmode. Considering this is one of the primary modes I use emacs in there's a fair bit of configuration there.
-
+keybinds.el - A relatively new and not fully utilized file. The plan is to use this as a centralized location for all custom keybinds.
Other files
There are several other files here not directly used by emacs but are related to it.
-
makefile - Install script using make5.
-
dist/* - These are files used by the output of ox-tufte.6
-
config.html - This org file exported from ox-tufte. This is not versioned.
-
snippets/[major mode]/* - These are YASnippets. These are manage by this document. See Snippets for more.
Everything else should be emacs configuration.
Emacs file prefixing
Lexical Bindings
There minor but non-zero start time benefits for using Lexical Bindings comments. All files created should start with
#+name:lexical-binding
;;; -*- lexical-binding: t; -*-
Warn user not to modify *.el files directly.
As mentioned above, we are versioning the generated emacs lisp configuration. We shouldn't modified these files as they'll be clobbed anytime the org-tangle is run. Lets include a warning to this effect.
#+name:modification-warning
;;; This file is generated via tangles from the config.org file. Do not modify this file.
;;; Any modifications here will be clobbered and versioned over. Seriously just don't.Applying to all files
We need to apply this to all of the following files.
find ~/.doom.d/* -iname '*.el' | sed "s/.*\///"+keybinds.el +orgmode.el config.el init.el packages.el
+keybinds.el

<<modification-warning>>
;; This file controls what Doom modules are enabled and what order they load

;; NOTE Press 'SPC h d h' (or 'C-h d h' for non-vim users) to access Doom's
;; documentation. There you'll find a link to Doom's Module Index where all
;; of our modules are listed, including what flags they support.
;; NOTE Move your cursor over a module's name (or its flags) and press 'K' (or
;; 'C-c c k' for non-vim users) to view its documentation. This works on
;; flags as well (those symbols that start with a plus).
;;
;; Alternatively, press 'gd' (or 'C-c c d') on a module to browse its
;; directory (for easy access to its source code).

Tridactyl
I am currently using Firefox with Tridactyl. 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. This likely just be markdown.
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("/\\(tmp\\|private/var\\)/.*/tmp_.*.greenfiling.com.*\\.txt" . markdown-mode))
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("/\\(tmp\\|private/var\\)/.*/tmp_.*.github.com.*\\.txt" . markdown-mode))Additional Keybinds
Keybinds custom keybinds can be located at $DOOMDIR/+keybinds.el.
(load! "+keybinds")Doom comes with some good keybind macros (see here for why). Documentation for this can be found here, but in broad strokes:
- Start with a
map!macro. You can use - When possible use
:whento limit scope. - Use
:prefixand:prefix-mapwhere possible. - Always use
:descto describe what is being done.
Below is a sample snippet from Rameez Khan's blog (first hit on "doom emacs keybind" using DDG):
(map! :leader
(:prefix-map ("a" . "applications")
(:prefix ("j" . "journal")
:desc "New journal entry" "j" #'org-journal-new-entry
:desc "Search journal entry" "s" #'org-journal-search)))Add the lexical bindings magic comment
;;; +keybinds.el -*- lexical-binding: t; -*-Modification warning message.
<<modification-warning>>Local Leader
Lets set the local leader to ,. We may want to remap this to ; later. Both of these seem to have issues with potential key conflicts with evil-snipe. This seems to primarily exists with regards to org-mode. Github issue can be found here.
(setq doom-localleader-key ",")Roam Keybinds
The standard keybind for getting to Roam's daily capture is pretty long. To capture a Log entry I have to type SPC n r d T l. I want to capture as many logs and goals as possible, so lets shorten this up some.
(map! :leader
(:when (modulep! :lang org +roam2)
(:prefix-map ("r" . "roam")
:desc "Find node" "/" #'org-roam-node-find
:desc "Capture to node" "n" #'org-roam-capture
:desc "Capture Today" "c" #'org-roam-dailies-capture-today
:desc "Goto Today" "t" #'org-roam-dailies-goto-today
)
)
)
:leader r is used by :tools upload for "remote", but since I'm not using this lets just not care about that.
Orgmode
This file will be needed for emacs batch automation, where its not reasonable to start up my entire working env. This file can be located at $DOOMDIR/+orgmode.el.
(load! "+orgmode")Lexical bindings
;;; +orgmode.el -*- lexical-binding: t; -*-Modification warning message.
<<modification-warning>>Importing org
This file may get consumed via emacs batch scripting, so we need ot make sure the orgmode is actually loaded.
(require 'org)Directories
My notes are stored via NextCloud to sync multiple machines. The Nextcloud directory can be located in a couple different location based off the OS that the machine is running, but where the NextCloud general sync directory may vary based on machine but notes should always be stored at $HOME/org.
(custom-set-variables '(org-directory "~/org/"))I've tried to organize things based on purpose & this will likely change in the future. The current directory looks like this
~/org ├── .archive ├── .attach ├── Projects ├── Roam ├── Todo └── Work
.archive
Where old files go. See org-archive-subtree for more.
.attach
Stuff that is not an orgmode document.
(setq
org-download-image-dir (concat org-directory ".attach/"))
Projects
I keep a todo.org at the root of each project. These are symlinked into the Projects directory. Nextcloud does not sync symlinked documents.
Roam
All roam docs go here. This is my default note taking system.
(setq
org-roam-directory (concat org-directory "Roam/"))
Todo
Another symlink dir. This is used to populate org agenda files.
(setq org-agenda-files (list (concat org-directory "Todos/" )))
Work
On my work machine I'll symlink this into my Todo
ln -s $HOME/org/Work/todo.org $HOME/org/Todo/work.orgI still want to capture work related notes where ever I am though.

Mermaid
MermaidJS is a diagramming and charting tool similar to Dot/Graphviz, but significantly prettier with less boilerplate. We'll likely only ever want to modify it in the context of org-mode so we'll want ob-mermaid.

Solaire

;(add-hook 'mixed-pitch-mode-hook #'solaire-mode-reset)Export to Tufte
Rather than using org-export-dispatch's html export, we'll want to use ox-tufte. The HTML output is a more reasonable than the HTML format.
(package! ox-tufte)Just load the require to setup the dependency.
(require 'ox-tufte)
By default the org-export-dispatch, includes some basic styling. This causes issues with our HTML. We'll need to turn off these.
(setq org-html-head ""
org-html-head-extra "")The syntax highlighting for html is done inline in the by default. We don't want to do that; we're using CSS. See the file in code.css file for more.
(setq org-html-htmlize-output-type "css")To use this you will need to include the setup file. This will load the required css & js files. See here for more.
#+SETUPFILE: ~/.dotfiles/emacs/dist/setup.org
This will load the CSS and JS files located in the dotfiles/emacs/dist/ directory.
Capture
The default +org-capture/open-frame is a little small. Let's modify the parameters to make it a little larger
(setq +org-capture-frame-parameters '((name . "doom-capture")
(width . 100)
(height . 20)
(transient . t)
))GPT
GPT is more useful than I thought. Its incredibly helpful for writing prose which I can struggle with due to mild dysgraphia. We will be using the karthink/gptel package.
(package! gptel)(use-package! gptel)
This package supports multiple LLM backends. I'm going to be using the OpenAI ChatGPT backend by default. We'll need to set the API key. There are a couple ways this can be done, but we're going to set this using ~/.authinfo.gpg. This will need to be decrypted before use, but this is pretty minor.

)Snippets
We've enabled the snippets module earlier. This will give us use of the Doom Snippets package, but we'll want to add our own as well. Custom snippets are added under $DOOMDIR/snippets/ directory. Documentation on how to write snippets can be found at yas-snippet/documentation and doom-snippets github page.
While we'll want to store these snippets in this orgmode document, using the +snippets/create & snippets/edit may be useful for creating these.

In my work todo and my roam notes I've been using a list elements with nerd-fonts icons under my section header to provide quick links for the context. Below are a few that I've been using.
