Disable the emacs startup screen.

  (setq inhibit-startup-screen +1)

Custom settings

Store options set via customize-* in a separate file (Emacs stores them in init.el by default).

  (setq custom-file "~/.emacs.d/custom.el")
  (if (file-exists-p custom-file)
      (load custom-file))

  (setf custom-safe-themes t)

UI

Highlight the current line

  (global-hl-line-mode +1)

Powerline

Make the mode line prettier.

  (use-package powerline
    :ensure t
    :config

    (powerline-default-theme))

Nyan-mode

Visualize the current position within the buffer in the modeline with nyancat!

  (use-package nyan-mode

    :config

    (setq moe-theme-resize-markdown-title '(1.5 1.4 1.3 1.2 1.0 1.0))

    (setq moe-theme-highlight-buffer-id t)
    (moe-theme-set-color 'cyan)
    (powerline-moe-theme)
    (moe-dark))

Display major-mode names as icons in the mode line when possible.

  (use-package mode-icons
    :ensure t
    :defer 5
    :config (mode-icons-mode))

helm-swoop

Replace isearch-forward with helm-swoop for a nicer experience.

    :bind (("C-s" . helm-swoop))

    ;; Setting it to return nil, as I find it tends to be more annoying than useful.
    (setq helm-swoop-pre-input-function (lambda () nil))
    ;; Enable syntax highlighting. It makes it easier for my eyes to
    ;; parse the results, and doesn't seem to slow things down
    ;; measurably.
    (setq helm-swoop-speed-or-color t)
    )

Source Highlighting

Configure org-mode LaTeX export to use minted for syntax highlighting.

Some languages / markups I use aren't supported by minted, so I map them here so they don't fail.

TeX Engine

Prepare the LaTeX export process, and default the compiler to xelatex, as it has better unicode support than pdflatex.

The %latex expansion variable is used so that org documents can override the latex compiler using the file-level LATEX_COMPILER directive.

  (setq org-latex-pdf-process
        (-repeat 3 "%latex -shell-escape -interaction nonstopmode -output-directory %o %f"))

Backups

Borrowed from Sacha Chua https://github.com/sachac/.emacs.d/

This is one of the things people usually want to change right away. By default, Emacs saves backup files in the current directory. These are the files ending in ~ that are cluttering up your directory lists. The following code stashes them all in ~/.emacs.d/backups, where I can find them with C-x C-f (find-file) if I really need to.

  (setq backup-directory-alist '(("." . "~/.emacs.d/backups")))

Disk space is cheap. Save lots.

  (setq delete-old-versions -1)
  (setq version-control t)
  (setq vc-make-backup-files t)
  (setq auto-save-file-name-transforms '((".*" "~/.emacs.d/auto-save-list/" t)))

Prompt for 'y or n' instead of 'yes or no'

Because typing out "yes" and "no" is irritating.

  (defalias 'yes-or-no-p #'y-or-n-p)

Support ANSI colors in compilation buffers

http://stackoverflow.com/a/13408008

  (require 'ansi-color)
  (defun colorize-compilation-buffer ()
    (toggle-read-only)
    (ansi-color-apply-on-region compilation-filter-start (point))
    (toggle-read-only))
  (add-hook 'compilation-filter-hook 'colorize-compilation-buffer)

Re-bind modifiers on OSX

On mac keyboards, the command key placement works better for me as Meta rather than the default (Super), because it's right where my muscle memory expects a PC keyboard's Alt key.

The control keys are typically pretty terrible, too, but I find it easier to rebind Caps Lock to Control in the system preferences (which is a nice thing to do in other environments, as well).

  (when (equal 'darwin system-type)
    ;; Command as meta, because alt/option's placement is terrible on
    ;; mac keyboards (this doesn't interfere with Spotlight's ⌘-Space
    ;; binding)
    (setq ns-command-modifier 'meta))

Auto-loading elisp files

Any elisp files dropped into ~/.emacs.local.d/ will be automatically loaded.

I usually use this is a testing ground for new configuration before adding it here, and also for any personal / sensitive configuration.

  (defun my/load-elisp-directory (path)
    (let ((file-pattern "\\.elc?$"))
      (when (file-directory-p path)
        (mapcar (lambda (lisp-file)
                  (load-file lisp-file))
                (directory-files (expand-file-name path) t file-pattern)))))

  (my/load-elisp-directory "~/.emacs.local.d")

Configuration file layout

Here I define the emacs.el file that gets generated by the code in this org file.

  ;;;; Do not modify this file by hand.  It was automatically generated
  ;;;; from `emacs.org` in the same directory. See that file for more
  ;;;; information.
