Introduction

I stole the outline of this from qDot, and then someone else’s init.el, and then bashed things together until they worked right.

Basic Setup

Variables

Anything in this section relates to the core setup of emacs. Since I’m not using the weird Ouroboric self-tangling thing qDot was, we’ve already got use-package, org, and cl-lib loaded.

Prefer UTF-8 everywhere:

(prefer-coding-system 'utf-8)
(set-default-coding-systems 'utf-8)
(set-language-environment "UTF-8")

Set up some simple platform finding variables.

(defvar linux-p (eq system-type 'gnu/linux) "True if using Linux, nil otherwise")
(defvar macosx-p (eq system-type 'darwin) "True if using Mac OS X, nil otherwise")
(defvar mswindows-p (eq system-type 'windows-nt) "True if using windows, nil otherwise")

Don’t need startup screens.

(setq inhibit-splash-screen t)

Make the bell blink, but only on non-Mac platforms. I prefer the Mac OS-level vbell.

(unless macosx-p (setq visible-bell t))

Don’t end sentences with a double space. This is important for fill functions.

(setq sentence-end-double-space nil)

Make sure message log is really, really big in case I screw something up.

(setq message-log-max 5000)

Make sure there’s no dialog on platforms that might try to bring one up. https://superuser.com/questions/125569/how-to-fix-emacs-popup-dialogs-on-mac-os-x

(when (or mswindows-p macosx-p)
  (defadvice y-or-n-p (around prevent-dialog-yorn activate)
    "Prevent y-or-n-p from activating a dialog"
    (let ((use-dialog-box nil))
      ad-do-it))

  (defadvice yes-or-no-p (around prevent-dialog activate)
    "Prevent yes-or-no-p from activating a dialog"
    (let ((use-dialog-box nil))
      ad-do-it)))

Put autosave files (ie #foo#) in one place, not scattered all over the file system.

(defvar alexm/autosave-dir (concat user-emacs-directory "autosaves/"))
(make-directory alexm/autosave-dir t)
(setq auto-save-file-name-transforms
      `((".*" ,alexm/autosave-dir t)))

Kill the fuck out of backup files.

(setq make-backup-files nil)

Scroll by up to 20 lines to get point back on screen.

(setq scroll-conservatively 20)

Make sure page up and page down are symmetric, so M-v undoes C-v perfectly.

(setq scroll-preserve-screen-position 'always)

Ensure files end with lines.

(setq require-final-newline t)

I like seeing keystrokes after a bit.

(setq echo-keystrokes 0.5)

I like seeing garbage collection and up the limit a bunch.

(setq garbage-collection-messages t
      gc-cons-threshold (* 64 1024 1024))

Clean up some bozotic defaults:

(setq-default
 Custom-buffer-done-kill t
 backward-delete-char-untabify-method nil
 case-fold-search t
 calendar-week-start-day 1
 calendar-latitude 56.0
 calendar-longitude 2.0
 completion-show-help nil
 default-frame-scroll-bars nil
 diff-switches "-u"
 enable-recursive-minibuffers t
 indent-tabs-mode nil
 js-indent-level 2
 ispell-program-name "aspell"
 kill-read-only-ok t
 kill-whole-line t
 read-quoted-char-radix 16
 recenter-positions '(bottom middle)
 remote-shell-program "/usr/bin/ssh"
 send-mail-function 'sendmail-send-it
 vertical-scroll-bar nil
 whois-server-name "whois.geektools.com"
 word-wrap t
 x-select-enable-clipboard t
 yow-file "~/.emacs.d/yow.lines"
 )
(when (fboundp 'set-scroll-bar-mode) (set-scroll-bar-mode nil))

Functions

Facefucker

Something to make setting faces easier — this works a lot like custom-set-faces but doesn’t use that machinery. You can call it with customize blobs, though.

(defun alexm/set-faces-by-spec (&rest specs)
  "Maps SPECS through face-spec-set."
  (mapc #'(lambda (f) (apply #'face-spec-set f)) specs))

Rot13 as Message

Do a rot13, but display it in a message instead of modifying the buffer.

(defun alexm/rot13-region (start end)
  "Display the ROT13 encryption of the region between START and END in current buffer."
  (interactive "r")
  (display-message-or-buffer (rot13 (filter-buffer-substring start end))))

Timestamp Utilities

Define a macro because there’s three time-formatting functions coming up.

These are, eventually, bound all the way down there.

(defmacro alexm/defstamper (name format)
  `(defun ,name (arg)
     (interactive "P")
     (let ((stamp (format-time-string ,format nil t)))
       (if arg
           (kill-new stamp)
         (insert stamp)))))

Kill, or with a prefix argument, insert, the current timestamp in modified ISO8601.

(alexm/defstamper alexm/stamp-m8601 "%Y.%m.%d..%H.%M.%S")

Kill, or with a prefix argument, insert, the current datestamp in modified ISO8601.

(alexm/defstamper alexm/stamp-m8601-date "%Y.%m.%d")

Kill, or with a prefix argument, insert, the current datestamp in RFC-2822 format.

(alexm/defstamper alexm/stamp-rfc2822 "%a, %d %b %Y %T %z")
(defun alexm/restore-text-scale nil
  "Return text size to normal"
  (interactive)
  (text-scale-increase 0))

Text cleansers

(defun alexm/clean-up-mesos-stacktraces nil
  "Make a Mesos stack-trace readable. Intended to be invoked immediately after pasting the offending trace."
  (interactive)
  (save-excursion
    (let ((end-of-trace (point)))
      (goto-char (search-backward "Traceback (most recent call last):"))
      (while (and (< (point) end-of-trace)
                  (re-search-forward
                   (rx
                    (seq "/var/lib/mesos" (* nonl) "sandbox")
                    (? "/.pex/" (| "code" "install") "/")
                    (* (not (any "/"))) "/")
                   ))
        (replace-match "")))))

Convenience tools

Don’t kill on first Cmd-Q

Only kill emacs if I hit Cmd-Q twice in ten seconds.

(defun alexm/dont-kill-on-first-cmd-q (_)
  "Beep, message the user, and then clear confirm-kill-emacs for 10 seconds."
  (prog1
      (ding)
    (message "Repeat that command within 10 seconds if you're sure.")
    (setq confirm-kill-emacs nil)
    (run-with-timer
     10 nil
     #'(lambda nil
         (setq confirm-kill-emacs #'alexm/dont-kill-on-first-cmd-q)))))
(setq confirm-kill-emacs #'alexm/dont-kill-on-first-cmd-q)
OS X Location hook

Maintain the variables set by osx-location, which see.

Also, start the timer for celestial-mode-line, if it’s not already running.

(defun alexm/osx-location-changed nil
  (setq calendar-latitude osx-location-latitude
        calendar-longitude osx-location-longitude
        calendar-location-name
        (format "%s, %s" osx-location-latitude osx-location-longitude))
  (unless celestial-mode-line--timer
    (celestial-mode-line-start-timer)))

Theme, Display, Font, and Modeline setup

Set the theme.

(load-theme 'wombat t)

Correct highlight face to not have underlining, and to not modify the foreground. Also, make the inactive modeline less ugly.

(alexm/set-faces-by-spec
 '(region ((t (:background "#a0df00" :foreground unspecified))))
 '(highlight ((t (:underline nil
                             :foreground unspecified
                             :background "#455445"))))
 '(mode-line-inactive ((t (:foreground "#999999")))))

Use fonts we either know we have, or can check for. Symbola is used to fill in missing glyphs for odd emoticons that pop up on IRC/IM usually.

(when (member "Symbola" (font-family-list))
  (set-fontset-font "fontset-default" nil
                    (font-spec :size 12 :name "Symbola")))
(when macosx-p
  (set-face-font 'default "Menlo-10"))
(when mswindows-p
  (set-face-font 'default "consolas-10"))
(when linux-p
  (set-face-font 'default "Fixed-11"))

Set up modeline and display variables.

(setq-default display-time-format "%Y%m%dT%H%M"
              display-time-world-list
              '(("America/Los_Angeles" "Seattle")
                ("America/Denver" "Santa Fe")
                ("America/New_York" "New York")
                ("UTC" "UTC"))
              mode-line-format
              '("%e" mode-line-mule-info
                mode-line-modified " " mode-line-buffer-identification " "
                mode-line-position " " mode-line-modes " "
                (vc-mode vc-mode) " " mode-line-misc-info
                mode-line-end-spaces))
(display-time)
(column-number-mode t)

Actually show the region we’re selecting when marking.

(transient-mark-mode t)

If a file is reverted outside of emacs, and its buffer has NOT been edited inside emacs, automatically revert it.

(global-auto-revert-mode t)

Transparently open compressed files.

(auto-compression-mode t)

Save a list of recent files visited.

(recentf-mode 1)
(add-to-list 'recentf-exclude "-autoloads\\.el\\'")
(add-to-list 'recentf-exclude "\\.el\\.gz\\'")
(add-to-list 'recentf-exclude "ido\\.last\\'")

Just expect font lock to be on everywhere, and turn up the gaudiness.

(setq font-lock-maximum-decoration t)
(global-font-lock-mode 1)

Back-tab sometimes gets fucky. Unfuck it.

(define-key key-translation-map "\M-[Z" (kbd "<backtab>"))

OS X thinks of Insert as Help, of all things. Stop that.

(when macosx-p
    (define-key key-translation-map (kbd "<help>") (kbd "<insert>")))

Set up default window sizes.

(setq initial-frame-alist
      '((tool-bar-lines . 0)
        (menu-bar-lines . 0)
        (width . 80)
        (height . 60))
      default-frame-alist initial-frame-alist)
(set-scroll-bar-mode nil)

Package Configuration

This section contains installation and configuration information for all the packages I use.

In order to quickly access configurations, the org nodes are named after the mode the package exposes, as well as having each configuration node tagged with the ’package’ tag.

Passacre

I use passacre for password management. I prefer that it prompt for confirmation.

(require 'passacre)
(setq passacre-confirm t)

IRC

A lot of my goddamn life is on IRC.

Functions

Override the default TIME handler with one that conforms to Erisian norms.

(defun irc-handle-ctcp--ctcp-time (conn _event sender _target _argument)
  "Handle a CTCP TIME request."
  (irc-send-ctcpreply
   conn (irc-userstring-nick sender) "TIME"
   (replace-regexp-in-string "\n" " " (shell-command-to-string "ddate"))))

Chat modes require margins for the timestamps.

  (setq right-margin-width 5
        lui-logging-directory "~/.circe-logs"
        lui-logging-file-format "{target}@{network}_%Y-%m.txt"
        lui-logging-format "[%Y%m%d_%T] {text}"))

Server, query, and channels need shorter modeline names; certain channels also get special treatment.

(defun alexm/circe-server-mode nil
  (setq mode-name "C-s"))
(defun alexm/query-mode nil
  (setq mode-name "C-q")
  (smartparens-mode -1))

  (when (member-ignore-case circe-chat-target (list "&bitlbee" "#techcrap"))
    (setq circe-reduce-lurker-spam t)))

When connecting to the server, rename the buffer to something reasonable.

  (rename-buffer
   (concat circe-nick "@"
           circe-network ":"
           (number-to-string circe-port))

saveplace   package

Make sure I always come back to the same place in a file after closing/opening. http://groups.google.com/group/comp.emacs/browse_thread/thread/c5e4c18b77a18512

saveplace tends to screw with buffers that have automatically folded layouts, like org-mode. It’ll open trees with none of the parents open, which causes weird problems. So org-mode is ignored.

(use-package saveplace

  :config
  (save-place-mode t)

  ;; org and org_archive files
