* Introduction

My Emacs configuration is a mess.  As I’m writing this my Emacs configuration stretches across multiple files, each containing various snippets of code that seemed like a good idea to group.

Unfortunately, there are a some things that don’t have a “natural” home.  Enabling the same minor mode in various major modes is one of these cases—do I duplicate the hook and place it in a file for each major mode?  Or do I write a new file for the minor mode in which I add it to the major modes at once?

With multiple files I spend too much time trying to find the best place for any bit of configuration I add.  This slows me down and sometimes I just append to the main =init.el=, so I often feel that my configuration is in need of reorganisation.  But configuring Emacs should be fun!  I don’t want it to create an uncomfortable clean-up task as a side-effect.  This is why I’m now trying to use a literate approach with =org-mode=.  My Emacs configuration should be prose first and code second.  In my experience, finding the right spot in prose for a new paragraph requires a lot less effort as the text itself acts as a connection between unrelated bits of code.

* How to use this?

We take all code blocks in this file and assemble an =init.el= from it if the source file =init.org= is younger.  At startup time we check if the =init.el= has to be regenerated.  To get started you need to have an =init.el= with at least these contents.

#+BEGIN_SRC elisp
(setq lexical-binding t)
(let ((orgfile (expand-file-name (concat user-emacs-directory "init.org")))
      (target  (expand-file-name (concat user-emacs-directory "init.el"))))
  (when (not (file-newer-than-file-p target orgfile))
    (progn
      (require 'org)
      (org-babel-tangle-file orgfile)
      (byte-compile-file target)
      (load target))))
#+END_SRC

* Performance

Make startup faster by reducing the frequency of garbage collection and then use a hook to measure Emacs startup time.

#+begin_src elisp
;; The default is 800 kilobytes.  Measured in bytes.
(setq gc-cons-threshold (* 50 1000 1000))

;; Profile emacs startup
(add-hook 'emacs-startup-hook
          (lambda ()
            (message "*** Emacs loaded in %s with %d garbage collections."
                     (format "%.2f seconds"
                             (float-time
                              (time-subtract after-init-time before-init-time)))
                     gcs-done)))
#+end_src

Native compilation gives Emacs a speed boost, but it spews compiler warnings that are quite annoying.  Silence them.

#+begin_src elisp
(setq comp-async-report-warnings-errors nil)
#+end_src

* Initialise packages

Emacs is an operating system and I use it as such (see [[http://elephly.net/posts/2016-02-14-ilovefs-emacs.html][this blog post]]).  I rely on quite a few extensions that have been made available on various ELPA repositories.  Recently, I have moved to installing and managing Emacs packages like any other software package on my system with the functional package manager [[https://gnu.org/s/guix][GNU Guix]].  I find this more reliable, although at first it is slightly less convenient as I can no longer just use =package.el= but first need to package the Elisp code for Guix.

I install a Guix profile just for Emacs using Guix Home.  Make Emacs
load packages from the profile:

#+begin_src elisp
(setq package-directory-list
      '("/home/rekado/.guix-home/emacs-profile/share/emacs/site-lisp"))
#+end_src

* Better defaults

Emacs defaults are hostile to most people.  They are what kept me from using Emacs for many years.

I’m easily confused by the way the cursor (point) keeps jumping around when scrolling by pages.  Let the cursor keep its screen position constant even when scrolling by full screens and don’t jump around when scrolling.

#+BEGIN_SRC elisp
(setq scroll-margin 7
      scroll-step 1
      scroll-conservatively 10000
      scroll-preserve-screen-position 1)
#+END_SRC

Here are a few more simple tweaks:

#+BEGIN_SRC elisp
;; No splash screen please ...
(setq inhibit-startup-message t)

;; Use UTF-8 by default
(prefer-coding-system 'utf-8-unix)

;; Keep all visited files in recentf
(use-package recentf
  :init
  (setq recentf-max-saved-items nil))

;; When point is on a file name and find-file is used, populate the prompt with the name of the file at point.
(ffap-bindings)

;; display tool tips in echo area only
(tooltip-mode -1)
(tool-bar-mode -1)
(menu-bar-mode -1)
(scroll-bar-mode -1)
;; by default Emacs will only resize the frame line by line
(setq frame-resize-pixelwise t)

;; don’t force me to input “yes” or “no”
(defalias 'yes-or-no-p 'y-or-n-p)

;; Use ibuffer instead of list-buffer
(global-set-key (kbd "C-x C-b") 'ibuffer)

;; enable mouse scrolling
(mouse-wheel-mode 1)

;(set-frame-parameter nil 'undecorated t)
#+END_SRC

I don’t use Helm because it’s too “busy” but I do want a more intelligent way to select buffers and find files.

#+BEGIN_SRC elisp
(require 'use-package)
(use-package vertico
  :init
  (vertico-mode))
#+END_SRC

Save recent completion selections.

#+BEGIN_SRC elisp
(use-package savehist
  :init
  (savehist-mode))
#+END_SRC

Display more information for vertico choices.

#+BEGIN_SRC elisp
(use-package marginalia
  :after vertico
  :init
  (marginalia-mode))
#+END_SRC

Match any part in any order.

#+BEGIN_SRC elisp
(use-package orderless
  :custom
  (completion-styles '(orderless basic))
  (completion-category-overrides
   '((file (styles basic partial-completion)))))
#+END_SRC

Also tell Emacs that I want to have a separate file for all other customisations that are handled through =M-x customize=.

#+BEGIN_SRC elisp
;; Keep emacs Custom-settings in separate file
(setq custom-file (expand-file-name "custom.el" user-emacs-directory))
(load custom-file)
#+END_SRC

* Theme

The default behavior of Emacs is that you can compose multiple themes; however, in practice that’s never done and will likely just mess things up. With this little advice, we tell Emacs that once a theme is loaded, all prior themes should be disabled.

#+BEGIN_SRC elisp
(defadvice load-theme (before theme-dont-propagate activate)
 (progn (mapc #'disable-theme custom-enabled-themes)
        (run-hooks 'after-load-theme-hook)))
#+END_SRC

The Modus themes look pretty nice.

#+BEGIN_SRC elisp
(use-package modus-themes
  :init
  (setq modus-themes-completions '(opinionated))
  (setq modus-themes-headings
        '((agenda-structure . (variable-pitch light 1.5))
          (agenda-date . (variable-pitch regular 1.3))
          (0 . (variable-pitch regular 2.0))
          (1 . (variable-pitch background light overline 1.5))
          (2 . (variable-pitch overline rainbow 1.3))
          (3 . (variable-pitch overline 1.1))
          (t . (monochrome))))
  (setq modus-themes-bold-constructs t)
  (setq modus-themes-org-blocks t)
  (setq modus-themes-variable-pitch-ui nil)
  (setq modus-themes-prompts '(bold))
  (setq modus-themes-to-toggle '(modus-operandi-tinted modus-vivendi-tinted))
  (setq modus-themes-common-palette-overrides
        (append '((border-mode-line-active unspecified)
                  (border-mode-line-inactive unspecified)
                  (window-divider fg-main)

                  ;; Parenthesis matching
                  (bg-paren-match bg-magenta-intense)
                  ;; Org Agenda
                  (date-deadline magenta-warmer)
                  (date-scheduled green-cooler)
                  (date-weekday fg-main)
                  (date-event fg-dim)
                  (date-now blue)
                  (prose-done fg-alt)
                  (prose-todo yellow)
                  ;; Region highlight
                  (bg-region bg-yellow-subtle)
                  (fg-region unspecified)
                  ;; Fewer colors in email
                  (mail-cite-0 fg-dim)
                  (mail-cite-1 blue-faint)
                  (mail-cite-2 fg-dim)
                  (mail-cite-3 blue-faint)
                  (mail-part cyan-warmer)
                  (mail-recipient blue-warmer)
                  (mail-subject magenta-cooler)
                  (mail-other cyan-warmer))
                modus-themes-preset-overrides-faint))

  (load-theme 'modus-operandi-tinted :no-confirm)

  ;; Add frame borders and window dividers
  (modify-all-frames-parameters
   '((right-divider-width . 1)
     (internal-border-width . 20)))
  (set-face-background 'fringe (face-attribute 'default :background)))
#+END_SRC

Dired mode becomes much prettier with =nerd-icons=.

#+BEGIN_SRC elisp
(use-package nerd-icons)
#+END_SRC

Customize the mode line:

#+BEGIN_SRC elisp
(use-package mini-echo
  :config
  (mini-echo-mode)
  :init
  ;; set default segments of long/short style
  (setq mini-echo-default-segments
        '(:long ("major-mode" "buffer-name" "vcs" "buffer-position"
                 "flymake" "process" "selection-info"
                 "narrow" "macro" "profiler")
          :short ("buffer-name-short" "buffer-position" "process"
                  "profiler" "selection-info" "narrow" "macro"))))
#+END_SRC

Dim windows that are not active.

#+begin_src elisp
(use-package dimmer
  :ensure
  :defer
  :init
  (setq dimmer-watch-frame-focus-events nil)
  (setq dimmer-use-colorspace :rgb)
  (setq dimmer-fraction 0.1)
  (setq dimmer-adjustment-mode :foreground)

  (defun advise-dimmer-config-change-handler ()
    "Advise to only force process if no predicate is truthy."
    (let ((ignore (cl-some (lambda (f) (and (fboundp f) (funcall f)))
                           dimmer-prevent-dimming-predicates)))
      (unless ignore
        (when (fboundp 'dimmer-process-all)
          (dimmer-process-all t)))))

  (defun corfu-frame-p ()
    "Check if the buffer is a corfu frame buffer."
    (string-match-p "\\` \\*corfu" (buffer-name)))

  (defun dimmer-configure-corfu ()
    "Convenience settings for corfu users."
    (add-to-list
     'dimmer-prevent-dimming-predicates
     #'corfu-frame-p))

  (defun update-dimmer-style ()
    (let* ((theme (modus-themes--current-theme))
           (what (pcase theme
                   ('modus-operandi 'light)
                   ('modus-operandi-tinted 'light)
                   (_ 'dark))))
      (if (eq what 'dark)
          (progn
            (setq dimmer-fraction 0.3)
            (setq dimmer-adjustment-mode :foreground))
        (progn
          (setq dimmer-fraction 0.05)
          (setq dimmer-adjustment-mode :background)))))

  (add-hook 'modus-themes-after-load-theme-hook
            #'update-dimmer-style)
  :config
  (advice-add
   'dimmer-config-change-handler
   :override 'advise-dimmer-config-change-handler)
  (dimmer-configure-corfu)
  (dimmer-mode t))
#+end_src

* Default fonts

I like pretty faces.  For coding I like to use the DejaVu Sans Mono font.  In =org-mode= and in =eww= I like to use a font with variable pitch instead of the default mono-spaced font.

#+BEGIN_SRC elisp
(set-face-attribute 'fixed-pitch nil :family "DejaVu Sans Mono" :height 130)
(set-face-attribute 'variable-pitch nil :family "Vollkorn" :height 150)
(set-face-attribute 'default nil :family "DejaVu Sans Mono" :height 130)
#+END_SRC

* Guix

Store paths have long hashes.  In most cases I don’t really care, so I use =guix-prettify-mode= to hide them.

#+BEGIN_SRC elisp
  (when (require 'guix-prettify nil t)
    (global-guix-prettify-mode))
#+END_SRC

I’m often building Guix packages in the shell.  =guix-build-log-minor-mode= gives me key bindings to fold and jump over build phases, and it adds pretty faces to the otherwise bland wall of text.

#+BEGIN_SRC elisp
  (add-hook 'shell-mode-hook 'guix-build-log-minor-mode)
#+END_SRC

I’m monitoring the Guix build farm =berlin.guixsd.org=, which is hosted at the MDC.

#+BEGIN_SRC elisp
(setq guix-hydra-url "https://ci.guix.gnu.org")
#+END_SRC

For bug and patch tracking the Guix project uses debbugs.  Here are some better defaults for using =debbugs-gnu= with Guix:

#+BEGIN_SRC elisp
(eval-when-compile
  (require 'debbugs-gnu))
(with-eval-after-load "debbugs-gnu"
  (setq debbugs-gnu-default-packages '("guix" "guix-patches"))
  (add-to-list 'debbugs-gnu-all-packages "guix-patches"))
#+END_SRC

Oleg Pykhalov shared this useful snippet to list bugs for which I am listed as the owner.

#+BEGIN_SRC elisp
(with-eval-after-load "debbugs-gnu"
(defun my/debbugs-gnu ()
  (interactive)
  (let ((debbugs-gnu-current-query `((submitter . ,user-mail-address))))
    (debbugs-gnu nil))))
#+END_SRC

When working on Guix it helps to reduce boilerplate with snippets.  I like to have YASnippet enabled and let it use the snippets that are provided with Guix:

#+BEGIN_SRC elisp
(use-package yasnippet
  :config
  (add-to-list 'yas-snippet-dirs "~/dev/gx/branches/master/etc/snippets")
  (yas-global-mode))
#+END_SRC




* Org-mode

This is my org mode configuration.  Much of it is in one big blob and I haven’t yet taken the time to document it.

#+BEGIN_SRC elisp
(setq org-ellipsis "⤵")
(setq org-src-fontify-natively t)

(global-set-key (kbd "C-c o l") 'org-store-link)
(global-set-key (kbd "C-c o a") 'org-agenda)

;; TODO: make these available in org-mode only
(global-set-key (kbd "C-c o s") 'org-schedule)

(setq org-log-done t)
(setq org-return-follows-link t)

(setq org-directory "~/Documents/org")
(setq org-agenda-files (mapcar (lambda (x) (concat org-directory x))
                               (list "/master.org"
                                     "/email.org"
                                     "/todo.org"
                                     "/inbox.org"
                                     "/birthdays.org")))
(setq org-default-notes-file (concat org-directory "/notes.org"))

(setq org-agenda-custom-commands
      '(("w" todo "WAITING" nil)
        ("n" todo "NEXT" nil)
        ("d" "Agenda + Next Actions" ((agenda) (todo "NEXT")))))

(setq org-fontify-done-headline t)


(defun gtd ()
  (interactive)
  (find-file (concat org-directory "/master.org")))
(use-package org-modern
  :after org
  :init
  (set-face-background 'org-block-begin-line (face-attribute 'default :background))
  (setq

I can never remember the syntax for babel blocks.  With =org-tempo= I can type =<s= and hit =tab= to expand it to a source block.

#+begin_src elisp
(use-package org-tempo
  :after org)
#+end_src

I don’t like the way org-mode looks by default.  It’s noisy, too colourful and seems old-fashioned to the point of being somewhat unattractive.

The following snippet is an attempt to prettify the somewhat ugly headers of source code blocks in =org-mode=.  The snippet was taken from [[https://pank.eu/blog/pretty-babel-src-blocks.html][the blog of Rasmus Pank]] and slightly modified to suit my needs.

* Editing files on remote systems

TRAMP is a really convenient way to edit files on remote systems from within the comfort of my cozy customised local Emacs session.  I use it to edit files at work, to edit things on my server =elephly.net=, and even to edit things as root on the local system.

#+BEGIN_SRC elisp
(require 'tramp)
(setq tramp-default-method "ssh")

(setq tramp-default-proxies-alist
      (list
       ;; Do not use a proxy on the same system.
       '((regexp-quote (system-name)) nil nil)
       ;; For root connections to remote hosts, log in via ssh with normal
       ;; user account first, then su/sudo to root
       '("elephly\\.net\\'" "\\`root\\'" "/ssh:%h:")
       ;; Pass through ssh1 as user ‘rwurmus’ to reach remote hosts on
       ;; MDC network.
       '("mdc-berlin\\.net" "\\`rwurmus\\'" "/ssh:rwurmus@ssh1.mdc-berlin.de:")))

;; ssh1 runs a restricted shell session, so "exec ssh" cannot be used.
(add-to-list 'tramp-restricted-shell-hosts-alist
             "\\`ssh1\\.mdc-berlin\\.de\\'")

;; respect the PATH variable on the remote machine
(add-to-list 'tramp-remote-path 'tramp-own-remote-path)
(add-to-list 'tramp-remote-path "~/.guix-profile/bin")
(add-to-list 'tramp-remote-path "~/.guix-home/bin")

* Shell

I used to like Eshell a lot.  Eshell is a shell implemented in Elisp.  It is well integrated with the rest of Emacs.  For example, you can pipe commands to buffers and use TRAMP paths right on the command line.  Nowadays I’m no longer using it much because for most purposes =shell-mode= is more mature.  Nevertheless, here is some configuration to make Eshell a little more usable.

#+BEGIN_SRC elisp

  ;; author: KaiGrossjohann on EmacsWiki
  (defun eshell/ff (&rest args)
    "Invoke `find-file' on the file.
    \"ff +42 foo\" also goes to line 42 in the buffer."
    (while args
      (if (string-match "\\`\\+\\([0-9]+\\)\\'" (car args))
          (let* ((line (string-to-number (match-string 1 (pop args))))
                 (file (pop args)))
            (find-file file)
            (forward-line (1- line)))
        (find-file (pop args)))))

  ;; convenience functions to input the remote root/home dir when in a
  ;; directory on a remote host
  (defun my/tramp-root ()
    "Print root directory on the remote host."
    (interactive)
    (let ((pieces (split-string (eshell/pwd) ":/")))
      (insert (if (> (length pieces) 1)
                  (concat (car pieces) ":/")
                "/"))))

  (defun my/tramp-home ()
    "Print home directory path on the remote host."
    (interactive)
    (let ((pieces (split-string (eshell/pwd) ":/")))
      (insert (if (> (length pieces) 1)
                  (concat (car pieces) ":~/")
                "~/"))))

* Resize buffer margins dynamically

When writing Org-mode documents or when browsing the web with Eww I prefer to see shorter lines.  =olivetti-mode= adjusts the buffer margins such that the buffer contents are restricted in width and centered.  I find this much more readable when editing Org documents or browsing with Eww.

* Scheme development

Geiser makes Scheme development really nice.  It’s also used for Guix development in combination with =guix-devel-mode=, so I’m adding the Guix development directory to Guile’s load path in all Geiser sessions.
