Due to issues with preset prefixes in general definers and nested
:prefix's supplied from a map! call not cooperating, many localleader
keybinds were broken and causing errors. For :leader/:localleader keys,
we now use :infix for sub-prefixes.
However, with this change, the :alt-prefix property has been removed, as
there is no simple way to support this without some major state
gymnastics in map!.
Fixes#1059
This resolves issues with :leader/:localleader keys not working when
evil states are specified. Evil states are now ignored. Also, some of
map!'s internals have been optimized to yield a ~10% improvement in
macro expansion time.
+ Now uses an overriding keymap for leader keys, so that it is always
available, even outside of normal/visual states. In insert/emacs
states, or in sessions where evil is absent, an alternative prefix is
used for leader/localleader keys. See these variables:
+ doom-leader-prefix
+ doom-leader-alt-prefix
+ doom-localleader-prefix
+ doom-localleader-alt-prefix
+ Keybinds now support alternative prefixes through the new :alt-prefix
property. This is useful for non-evil users and non-normal evil
states. By default, this is M-SPC (leader) and M-SPC m (localleader).
+ Removed +evil-commands flag from config/default (moved to
feature/evil/+commands.el).
+ config/default/+bindings.el has been split into
config/default/+{evil,emacs}-bindings.el, which one is loaded depends
on whether evil is present or not. The latter is blank, but will soon
be populated with a keybinding scheme for non-evil users (perhaps
inspired by #641).
+ The define-key! macro has been replaced; it is now an alias for
general-def.
+ Added unmap! as an alias for general-unbind.
+ The following modifier key conventions are now enforced for
consistency, across all OSes:
alt/option = meta
windows/command = super
It used to be
alt/option = alt
windows/command = meta
Many of the default keybinds have been updated to reflect this switch,
but it is likely to affect personal meta/super keybinds!
The map! macro has also been rewritten to use general-define-key. Here
is what has been changed:
+ map! no longer works with characters, e.g. (map! ?x #'do-something) is
no longer supported. Keys must be kbd-able strings like "C-c x" or
vectors like [?C-c ?x].
+ The :map and :map* properties are now the same thing. If specified
keymaps aren't defined when binding keys, it is automatically
deferred.
+ The way you bind local keybinds has changed:
;; Don't do this
(map! :l "a" #'func-a
:l "b" #'func-b)
;; Do this
(map! :map 'local "a" #'func-a
"b" #'func-b)
+ map! now supports the following new blocks:
+ (:if COND THEN-FORM ELSE-FORM...)
+ (:alt-prefix PREFIX KEYS...) -- this prefix will be used for
non-normal evil states. Equivalent to :non-normal-prefix in general.
+ The way you declare a which-key label for a prefix key has changed:
;; before
(map! :desc "label" :prefix "a" ...)
;; now
(map! :prefix ("a" . "label") ...)
+ It used to be that map! supported binding a key to a key sequence,
like so:
(map! "a" [?x]) ; pressing a is like pressing x
This functionality was removed *temporarily* while I figure out the
implementation.
