Due to a load order issue, the doom-local-dir regexp wouldn't be mapped
through our custom recentf-filename-handlers. `file-in-directory-p` is
more robust.
- Move subr-x/cl-lib loading to core-lib
- Revise docstrings for and rename various CLI functions to be more
descriptive and up-to-date
- After regenerating autoloads file, bin/doom will try to reload
autoloads files remotely, through the server/daemon, if possible. This
is highly experimental and could break
- Updates file order on window switch
- Adds dired directories to recentf list
- Reduce recentf-max-saved-items from 300 to 200 (reduce worst-case
resorting costs)
Instead of using auto-revert-mode or global-auto-revert-mode, we employ
lazy auto reverting on focus-in-hook, doom-switch-buffer-hook and
after-save-hook.
We do this because autorevert abuses inotify handles, which can grind
Emacs to a halt if you have hundreds of buffers open and something
performs expensive mtime or attribute-altering IO on their files outside
of Emacs. We only really need revert checks when we switch to or save a
buffer, or when we focus the Emacs frame.
But only if zstd is available. Also strips text properties from the undo
list. This often provides a 30-50% size benefit, with a negligible
performance impact.
It's wasted space now that dtrt-indent logs changes to indentation.
Also resolves a performance issue where the tab/space unicode character
would cause long 3-5s delays on startup or first-file load.
Patch the apropos button types so they call helpful instead of the
built-in describe functions. Also add some bindings to apropos-mode-map
so it behaves like other help modes.
Add `doom/describe-symbol` function, which shows documentation for
callable and variable symbols. If a symbol is both a variable and a
callable, it dispatches to apropos. This gives a better workflow than
`helpful-symbol`, which annoyingly prompts the user.
Remap `describe-symbol` to `doom/describe-symbol`, and update
`+emacs-lisp-lookup-documentation` to call it also.
+ Add doom-switch-frame-hook
+ Replace doom-{enter,exit}-{buffer,window}-hook with
doom-switch-{buffer,window}-hook
+ New switch-buffer hooks run on buffer-list-update-hook rather than
in select-window advice.
+ Blank our buffer-list-update-hook in some places to reduce how many
times it gets triggered.
- Code reduction and refactor across the board (cull unneeded minor
advise, hooks and hacks or update them)
- Revise outdated comments and docstrings
- Reorganize core autoload libraries
- Remove large file check (Emacs already has a built-in one, which we
augment to be even more performant when it does kick in)
- helpful.el can now be disabled completely through package!
+ 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.
Addresses: #448, #814, #860
Mentioned in: #940
undo-tree-load-history was formerly advised with doom*shut-up, which
uses the quiet! macro to suppress output. quiet! accomplishes this by
temporarily redefining message to a no-op function. However, if a fatal
error occurs while this binding is active, in some cases, message will
remain redefined, perpetually silencing all output to the minibuffer.
This tries to mitigate that, at least where undo-tree is concerned.
Also sharp-quotes an unquoted function.
