Doom Emacs Configuration
Let us change our traditional attitude to the construction of programs: Instead of imagining that our main task is to instruct a computer what to do, let us concentrate rather on explaining to human beings what we want a computer to do. — Donald Knuth
Intro
Customising an editor can be very rewarding … until you have to leave it. For years I have been looking for ways to avoid this pain. Then I discovered vim-anywhere, and found that it had an emacs companion, emacs-anywhere. To me, this looked most attractive.
Separately, online I have seen the following statement enough times I think it's a catchphrase
Redditor1: I just discovered this thing, isn't it cool. Redditor2: Oh, there's an emacs mode for that.
I tried out the spacemacs distribution a bit, but it wasn't quite to my liking.
Then I heard about doom emacs and thought I may as well give that a try.
TLDR; it's great.
Now I've discovered the wonders of literate programming, and am becoming more settled by the day. This is my config.
Rudimentary configuration
Make this file run (slightly) faster with lexical binding (see this blog post for more info).
;;; config.el -*- lexical-binding: t; -*-Personal Information
It's useful to have some basic personal information
(setq user-full-name "tecosaur"
user-mail-address "tecosaur@gmail.com")Apparently this is used by GPG, and all sorts of other things.
Better defaults
Simple settings
Browsing the web and seeing angrybacon/dotemacs and comparing with the values
shown by SPC h v and selecting what I thought looks good, I've ended up adding the following:
(setq-default
delete-by-moving-to-trash t ; Delete files to trash
tab-width 4 ; Set width for tabs
uniquify-buffer-name-style 'forward ; Uniquify buffer names
window-combination-resize t ; take new window space from all other windows (not just current)
x-stretch-cursor t) ; Stretch cursor to the glyph width
(setq undo-limit 80000000 ; Raise undo-limit to 80Mb
evil-want-fine-undo t) ; By default while in insert all changes are one big blob. Be more granular
(delete-selection-mode 1) ; Replace selection when inserting text
(display-time-mode 1) ; Enable time in the mode-line
(display-battery-mode 1) ; On laptops it's nice to know how much power you have
(global-subword-mode 1) ; Iterate through CamelCase words
; This really simplifies prompt style issues with tramp
(eval-after-load 'tramp '(setenv "SHELL" "/bin/bash"))Fullscreen
I also like the idea of fullscreen-ing when opened by emacs or the .desktop file.
(if (eq initial-window-system 'x) ; if started by emacs command or desktop file
(toggle-frame-maximized)
(toggle-frame-fullscreen))Auto-customisations
By default changes made via a customisation interface are added to init.el.
I prefer the idea of using a separate file for this. We just need to change a
setting, and load it if it exists.
(setq-default custom-file (expand-file-name ".custom.el" default-directory))
(when (file-exists-p custom-file)
(load custom-file))Windows
I find it rather handy to be asked which buffer I want to see after splitting the window. Let's make that happen. First, we'll enter the new window
(setq evil-vsplit-window-right t
evil-split-window-below t)Then, we'll pull up ivy
(defadvice! prompt-for-buffer (&rest _)
:after '(evil-window-split evil-window-vsplit)
(+ivy/switch-buffer))Buffer defaults
I'd much rather have my new buffers in org-mode than fundamental-mode, hence
(setq-default major-mode 'org-mode)Doom configuration
Visual Settings
Font Face
'Fira Code' is nice, and 'Overpass' makes for a nice sans companion. We just need to fiddle with the font sizes a tad so that they visually match.
(setq doom-font (font-spec :family "Fira Code" :size 22)
doom-big-font (font-spec :family "Fira Code" :size 36)
doom-variable-pitch-font (font-spec :family "Overpass" :size 24))Theme
doom-one is nice and all, but I find the vibrant variant nicer.
(setq doom-theme 'doom-vibrant)However, by default red text is used in the modeline, so let's make that orange
so I don't feel like something's gone wrong when editing files.
(custom-set-faces!
'(doom-modeline-buffer-modified :foreground "orange"))Miscellaneous
Relative line numbers are fantastic for knowing how far away line numbers are,
then ESC 12 <UP> gets you exactly where you think.
(setq display-line-numbers-type 'relative)I'd like some slightly nicer default buffer names
(setq doom-fallback-buffer-name "► Doom"
+doom-dashboard-name "► Doom")There's a bug with the modeline in insert mode for org documents (issue), so
;; (custom-set-faces! '(doom-modeline-evil-insert-state :weight bold :foreground "#339CDB"))Some helper macros
There are a few handy macros added by doom, namely
load!for loading external.elfiles relative to this oneuse-packagefor configuring packagesadd-load-path!for adding directories to theload-pathwhereemacslooks when you load packages withrequireoruse-packagemapfor binding new keys

For running a systemd service for a emacs server I have the following

This file shouldn't be byte compiled.
;; -*- no-byte-compile: t; -*-Loading instructions
This is where you install packages, by declaring them with the package!
macro, then running doom refresh on the command line. You'll need to
restart Emacs for your changes to take effect! Or at least, run M-x doom/reload.
WARNING: Don't disable core packages listed in ~/.emacs.d/core/packages.el.
Doom requires these, and disabling them may have terrible side effects.
Packages in MELPA/ELPA/emacsmirror
To install some-package from MELPA, ELPA or emacsmirror:
(package! some-package)Packages from git repositories
To install a package directly from a particular repo, you'll need to specify
a :recipe. You'll find documentation on what :recipe accepts here:
(package! another-package
:recipe (:host github :repo "username/repo"))
If the package you are trying to install does not contain a PACKAGENAME.el
file, or is located in a subdirectory of the repo, you'll need to specify
:files in the :recipe:
(package! this-package
:recipe (:host github :repo "username/repo"
:files ("some-file.el" "src/lisp/*.el")))Disabling built-in packages
If you'd like to disable a package included with Doom, for whatever reason,
you can do so here with the :disable property:
(package! builtin-package :disable t)You can override the recipe of a built in package without having to specify
all the properties for :recipe. These will inherit the rest of its recipe
from Doom or MELPA/ELPA/Emacsmirror:
(package! builtin-package :recipe (:nonrecursive t))
(package! builtin-package-2 :recipe (:repo "myfork/package"))
Specify a :branch to install a package from a particular branch or tag.
This is required for some packages whose default branch isn't 'master' (which
our package manager can't deal with; see raxod502/straight.el#279)
(package! builtin-package :recipe (:branch "develop"))Packages
Auto-complete
(package! company-tabnine ; tab9 autocomplete
:recipe (:host github :repo "TommyX12/company-tabnine"
:files ("company-tabnine.el" "fetch-binaries.sh")))Prettification
prettify-mode is nice and all, but adding substitutions is a little verbose.
This helps with that.
(package! prettify-utils ; simplify messing with prettify-mode
:recipe (:host github :repo "Ilazki/prettify-utils.el"))Org Mode
Org tables aren't the prettiest thing to look at. This package is supposed to redraw them in the buffer with box-drawing characters. Sounds like an improvement to me! Just need to get it working…
(package! org-pretty-table-mode
:recipe (:host github :repo "Fuco1/org-pretty-table"))Because of the lovely variety in markdown implementations there isn't actually
such a thing a standard table spec … or standard anything really. Because
org-md is a goody-two-shoes, it just uses HTML for all these non-standardised
elements (a lot of them). So ox-gfm is handy for exporting markdown with all the
features that GitHub has. Initialised in /tec/emacs-config/src/commit/bb2cca50c369d767ed5211a42cda0111a6f57c62/Exporting%20to%20GFM.
(package! ox-gfm)Pandoc is also a very handy export tool. org-pandoc also exists, but this seems
to be better maintained.
(package! ox-pandoc)NB: I found that org +pandoc exists, however after enabling it I couldn't find/
any org-pandoc-y commands with M-x, so I'm using this
Came across this and … it's cool
(package! org-graph-view :recipe (:host github :repo "alphapapa/org-graph-view"))Window management
(package! rotate)Fun
Sometimes one just wants a little fun. XKCD comics are fun.
(package! xkcd)Every so often, you want everyone else to know that you're typing, or just to amuse oneself. Introducing: typewriter sounds!
(package! selectric-mode)Hey, let's get the weather in here while we're at it.

Centaur Tabs
We want to make the tabs a nice, comfy size (36), with icons. The modifier
marker is nice, but the particular default Unicode one causes a lag spike, so
let's just switch to an o, which still looks decent but doesn't cause any
issues.
A 'active-bar' is nice, so let's have one of those. If we have it under needs us to
turn on x-underline-at-decent though. For some reason this didn't seem to work
inside the (after! ... ) block ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.
Then let's change the font to a sans serif, but the default one doesn't fit too
well somehow, so let's switch to 'P22 Underground Book'; it looks much nicer.
(after! centaur-tabs
(setq centaur-tabs-height 36

;; (setq x-underline-at-descent-line t)Company
It's nice to have completions almost all the time, in my opinion. Key strokes are just waiting to be saved!
(after! company
(setq company-idle-delay 0.1

(setq company-show-numbers t))Now, the improvements from precident are mostly from remembering history, so
let's improve that memory.
(setq-default history-length 1000)
(setq-default prescient-history-length 1000)Plain Text
ispell is nice, let's have it in text, markdown, and GFM.
(set-company-backend! '(text-mode
markdown-mode
gfm-mode)
'(:seperate company-ispell
company-files
company-yasnippet))The SCOWL word list I got for VSCode is better than the default (I think), so
let's use that.
(setq company-ispell-dictionary (file-truename "~/.config/Code/User/Custom cSpell Dictionaries/SCOWL-workdlist-au-uk-60.txt"))Oh, and by the way, if company-ispell-dictionary is nil, then
ispell-complete-word-dict is used instead.
ESS
company-dabbrev-code is nice. Let's have it.
(set-company-backend! 'ess-r-mode '(company-R-args company-R-objects company-dabbrev-code :separate))Emacs Anywhere configuration
It's nice to recognise GitHub (so we can use GFM)
(defun github-conversation-p (window-title)
(or (string-match-p "Pull Request" window-title)
(string-match-p "Issue" window-title)
))When the window opens, we generally want text so let's use a nice sans serif font,
a position the window below and to the left. Oh, and don't forget about checking
for GFM, otherwise let's just use markdown.
(defun ea-popup-handler (app-name window-title x y w h)
(set-frame-size (selected-frame) 80 12)

Symbols
It's also nice to change the character used for collapsed items (by default …),
I think ▾ is better for indicating 'collapsed section'.
and add an extra org-bullet to the default list of four.
I've also added some fun alternatives, just commented out.
(setq org-ellipsis " ▾ "

It's nice to customise the look of LaTeX fragments so they fit better in the text. Let's start by adding a sans font. \(\sqrt{\beta^2+3}-\sum_{\phi=1}^\infty \frac{x^\phi-1}{\Gamma(a)}\)
(setq org-format-latex-header "\\documentclass{article}

On the rendering side, there are two .dvi-to-image convertors which I am
interested in. dvipng and dvisvgm. For inline preview we care about speed. Using
the above latex expression and benchmarking lead to the following results:
dvipng time |
dvisvgm time |
|---|---|
| 0.09±0.002s | 0.18±0.004s |
So, let's use dvipng for previewing LaTeX fragments in-emacs, but dvisvgm for [[
Exporting to HTML][LaTeX Rendering]].
Unfortunately: it seems that svg sizing is annoying ATM, so let's not do this right now.
As well as having a sans font, there are a few other tweaks which can make them look better. Namely making the background transparent, and increasing the resolution.
(after! org

Custom CSS/JS
There is a fantastic exporter config (fniessen/org-html-themes) which we can setup to be used with all our org files. Since most of the syntax highlighting colours from our /tec/emacs-config/src/commit/bb2cca50c369d767ed5211a42cda0111a6f57c62/Theme gets used, we benefit from customising the code block style.
We also want to make the background and foreground colours of the <pre> blocks
match out theme (they don't by default), so I scraped some code from emacs.stackexchange.

ledger-mode is great and all, but hledger seems to be more actively maintained.
For example, from 2018–2020, the most prolific contributor to ledger produced
31 commits. For hledger this statistic is 1800 commits. In addition, over the
last decade, ledger seems to have lost steam, while hledger seems as actively
developed as ever. From this basic comparison hledger looks to have a more
promising outlook. It also has a few extra nicities that ledger doesn't, but is
a little slower (hascell vs. c++).
Since this uses the same format, and ledger-mode is well integrated into emacs,
and produced by John Weigley — author of ledger and current Emacs maintainer
— using this seems like a good idea. Thankfully we can, with a little modification.
