* IMPORTANT! PUT THIS IN YOUR INIT.EL
I don't want to use init.el to config Emacs. I want to use an org file to config Emacs because I like literate configs with lots of comments. The following code block should be your init.el. This tells init.el to use the source code blocks from this file (config.org).
#+begin_example
(org-babel-load-file
(expand-file-name
"config.org"
user-emacs-directory))
#+end_example
* ABOUT THIS CONFIG
This is my personal Emacs config. I patterned my config to mimic Doom Emacs, which is a distribution of Emacs that uses the "evil" keybindings (Vim keybindings) and includes a number of nice extensions and a bit of configuration out of the box. I am maintaining this config not just for myself, but also for those that want to explore some of what is possible with Emacs. I will add a lot of examples of plugins and settings, some of them I may not even use personally. I do this because many people following me on YouTube and Odysee look at my configs as "documentation".
* A FEW PROGRAMS TO LOAD FIRST
The order in which the various Emacs modules load is very important. So the very first code block is going to contain essential modules that many other modules will depend on later in this config.
** Setup Package.el To Work With MELPA
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(require 'package)
(add-to-list 'package-archives
'("melpa" . "https://melpa.org/packages/"))
(package-refresh-contents)
(package-initialize)
#+end_src
** Use-Package
Install use-package and enable ':ensure t' globally. The ':ensure' keyword causes the package(s) within use-package statements to be installed automatically if not already present on your system. To avoid having to add ':ensure t' to every use-package statement in this config, I set 'use-package-always-ensure'.
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(unless (package-installed-p 'use-package)
(package-install 'use-package))
(setq use-package-always-ensure t)
#+end_src
** Evil Mode
Evil is an extensible 'vi' layer for Emacs. It emulates the main features of Vim, and provides facilities for writing custom extensions. Evil Collection is also installed since it adds 'evil' bindings to parts of Emacs that the standard Evil package does not cover, such as: calenda, help-mode adn ibuffer.
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(use-package evil
:init ;; tweak evil's configuration before loading it
(setq evil-want-integration t) ;; This is optional since it's already set to t by default.
(setq evil-want-keybinding nil)
(setq evil-vsplit-window-right t)
(setq evil-split-window-below t)
(evil-mode))
(use-package evil-collection
:after evil
:config
(setq evil-collection-mode-list '(dashboard dired ibuffer))
(evil-collection-init))
(use-package evil-tutor)
#+end_src
** General Keybindings
General.el allows us to set keybindings. As a longtime Doom Emacs user, I have grown accustomed to using SPC as the prefix key. General makes setting keybindings (especially with SPC) much easier. All of the keybindings we set later in the config depend on general being loaded.
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(use-package general
:config
(general-evil-setup t))
#+end_src
* ALL THE ICONS
This is an icon set that can be used with dashboard, dired, ibuffer and other Emacs programs.
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(use-package all-the-icons)
#+end_src
* BUFFERS AND BOOKMARKS
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(nvmap :prefix "SPC"
"b b" '(ibuffer :which-key "Ibuffer")
"b c" '(clone-indirect-buffer-other-window :which-key "Clone indirect buffer other window")
"b k" '(kill-current-buffer :which-key "Kill current buffer")
"b n" '(next-buffer :which-key "Next buffer")
"b p" '(previous-buffer :which-key "Previous buffer")
"b B" '(ibuffer-list-buffers :which-key "Ibuffer list buffers")
"b K" '(kill-buffer :which-key "Kill buffer"))
#+end_src
* DASHBOARD
Emacs Dashboard is an extensible startup screen showing you recent files, bookmarks, agenda items and an Emacs banner.
** Configuring Dashboard
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(use-package dashboard
:init ;; tweak dashboard config before loading it
(setq dashboard-set-heading-icons t)
(setq dashboard-set-file-icons t)
(setq dashboard-banner-logo-title "Emacs Is More Than A Text Editor!")
;;(setq dashboard-startup-banner 'logo) ;; use standard emacs logo as banner
(setq dashboard-startup-banner "/home/dt/.emacs.d/emacs-dash.png") ;; use custom image as banner
(setq dashboard-center-content nil) ;; set to 't' for centered content
(setq dashboard-items '((recents . 5)
(agenda . 5 )
(bookmarks . 3)
(projects . 3)
(registers . 3)))
:config
(dashboard-setup-startup-hook)
(dashboard-modify-heading-icons '((recents . "file-text")
(bookmarks . "book"))))
#+end_src
** Dashboard in Emacsclient
This setting ensures that emacsclient always opens on *dashboard* rather than *scratch*.
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(setq initial-buffer-choice (lambda () (get-buffer "*dashboard*")))
#+end_src
* DELETE SELECTION MODE
By default in Emacs, we don't have ability to select text, and then start typing and our new text replaces the selection. Let's fix that!
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(delete-selection-mode t)
#+end_src
* ELFEED
An RSS newsfeed reader for Emacs.
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(use-package elfeed
:config
(setq elfeed-search-feed-face ":foreground #fff :weight bold"
elfeed-feeds (quote

#+end_src
* EMOJIS
Emojify is an Emacs extension to display emojis. It can display github style emojis like :smile: or plain ascii ones like :).
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(use-package emojify
:hook (after-init . global-emojify-mode))
#+end_src
* EVALUATE ELISP EXPRESSIONS
I choose to use the format 'SPC e' plus 'key' for these (I also use 'SPC e' for 'eww' keybindings).
| COMMAND | DESCRIPTION | KEYBINDING |
|-----------------+------------------------------------------------+------------|
| eval-buffer | /Evaluate elisp in buffer/ | SPC e b |
| eval-defun | /Evaluate the defun containing or after point/ | SPC e d |
| eval-expression | /Evaluate an elisp expression/ | SPC e e |
| eval-last-sexp | /Evaluate elisp expression before point/ | SPC e l |
| eval-region | /Evaluate elisp in region/ | SPC e r |
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(nvmap :states '(normal visual) :keymaps 'override :prefix "SPC"
"e b" '(eval-buffer :which-key "Eval elisp in buffer")
"e d" '(eval-defun :which-key "Eval defun")
"e e" '(eval-expression :which-key "Eval elisp expression")
"e l" '(eval-last-sexp :which-key "Eval last sexression")
"e r" '(eval-region :which-key "Eval region"))
#+end_src
* FILE MANAGER (DIRED)
Dired is the file manager within Emacs. Below, I setup keybindings for image previews (peep-dired). I've chosen the format of 'SPC d' plus 'key'.
** Keybindings To Open Dired
| COMMAND | DESCRIPTION | KEYBINDING |
|------------+------------------------------------+------------|
| dired | /Open dired file manager/ | SPC d d |
| dired-jump | /Jump to current directory in dired/ | SPC d j |

** Keybindings For Peep-Dired-Mode
| COMMAND | DESCRIPTION | KEYBINDING |
|----------------------+------------------------------------------+------------|
| peep-dired | /Toggle previews within dired/ | SPC d p |
| peep-dired-next-file | /Move to next file in peep-dired-mode/ | j |

#+begin_src emacs-lisp

;; For example, I set all .png files to open in 'sxiv' and all .mp4 files to open in 'mpv'
(setq dired-open-extensions '(("gif" . "sxiv")

#+end_src
* FILES
** File-related Keybindings
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(nvmap :states '(normal visual) :keymaps 'override :prefix "SPC"
"." '(find-file :which-key "Find file")
"f f" '(find-file :which-key "Find file")

"f S" '(write-file :which-key "Save file as...")
"f U" '(sudo-edit :which-key "Sudo edit file"))
#+end_src
** Installing Some Useful File-related Modules
Though 'recentf' is one way to find recent files although I prefer using 'counsel-recentf'.
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(use-package recentf
:config
(recentf-mode))
(use-package sudo-edit) ;; Utilities for opening files with sudo
#+end_src
** Useful File Functions
#+begin_src emacs-lisp

(interactive)
(let ((file-name (buffer-file-name)))
(if file-name
(progn

(kill-new file-name))
(error "Buffer not visiting a file"))))
#+end_src
* FONTS
Defining our fonts. Right now I'm using Source Code Pro (SauceCodePro) from the nerd-fonts repository. Installed from the AUR, it does =NOT= include all variations of the font (such as italics). You can download the italics Source Code Pro font from the nerd-fonts GitHub though.
** Setting The Font Face
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(set-face-attribute 'default nil
:font "Source Code Pro"
:height 110
:weight 'medium)
(set-face-attribute 'variable-pitch nil
:font "Ubuntu Nerd Font"
:height 120
:weight 'medium)
(set-face-attribute 'fixed-pitch nil
:font "Source Code Pro"
:height 110
:weight 'medium)
;; Makes commented text and keywords italics.
;; This is working in emacsclient but not emacs.
;; Your font must have an italic face available.
(set-face-attribute 'font-lock-comment-face nil
:slant 'italic)
(set-face-attribute 'font-lock-keyword-face nil
:slant 'italic)
;; Uncomment the following line if line spacing needs adjusting.
(setq-default line-spacing 0.12)
;; Needed if using emacsclient. Otherwise, your fonts will be smaller than expected.
(add-to-list 'default-frame-alist '(font . "Source Code Pro-11"))
;; changes certain keywords to symbols, such as lamda!
(setq global-prettify-symbols-mode t)
#+end_src
** Zooming In and Out
You can use the bindings CTRL plus =/- for zooming in/out. You can also use CTRL plus the mouse wheel for zooming in/out.
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
;; zoom in/out like we do everywhere else.
(global-set-key (kbd "C-=") 'text-scale-increase)
(global-set-key (kbd "C--") 'text-scale-decrease)
(global-set-key (kbd "<C-wheel-up>") 'text-scale-increase)
(global-set-key (kbd "<C-wheel-down>") 'text-scale-decrease)
#+end_src
* GENERAL KEYBINDINGS
General.el allows us to set keybindings. As a longtime Doom Emacs user, I have grown accustomed to using SPC as the prefix key. It certainly is easier on the hands than constantly using CTRL for a prefix.
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(nvmap :keymaps 'override :prefix "SPC"
"SPC" '(counsel-M-x :which-key "M-x")
"c c" '(compile :which-key "Compile")

"h r r" '((lambda () (interactive) (load-file "~/.emacs.d/init.el")) :which-key "Reload emacs config")
"t t" '(toggle-truncate-lines :which-key "Toggle truncate lines"))
(nvmap :keymaps 'override :prefix "SPC"
"m *" '(org-ctrl-c-star :which-key "Org-ctrl-c-star")

#+end_src
* GRAPHICAL USER INTERFACE TWEAKS
Let's make GNU Emacs look a little better.
** Disable Menubar, Toolbars and Scrollbars
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(menu-bar-mode -1)
(tool-bar-mode -1)
(scroll-bar-mode -1)
#+end_src
** Display Line Numbers and Truncated Lines
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(global-display-line-numbers-mode 1)
(global-visual-line-mode t)
#+end_src
** Change Modeline To Doom's Modeline
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(use-package doom-modeline)
(doom-modeline-mode 1)
#+end_src
* IVY (COUNSEL/SWIPER)
Ivy, counsel and swiper are a generic completion mechanism for Emacs. Ivy-rich allows us to add descriptions alongside the commands in M-x.
** Installing Ivy And Basic Setup
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(use-package counsel
:after ivy
:config (counsel-mode))
(use-package ivy
:defer 0.1
:diminish
:bind
(("C-c C-r" . ivy-resume)
("C-x B" . ivy-switch-buffer-other-window))
:custom
(setq ivy-count-format "(%d/%d) ")
(setq ivy-use-virtual-buffers t)
(setq enable-recursive-minibuffers t)
:config
(ivy-mode))
(use-package ivy-rich
:after ivy
:custom
(ivy-virtual-abbreviate 'full
ivy-rich-switch-buffer-align-virtual-buffer t
ivy-rich-path-style 'abbrev)
:config
(ivy-set-display-transformer 'ivy-switch-buffer
'ivy-rich-switch-buffer-transformer)
(ivy-rich-mode 1)) ;; this gets us descriptions in M-x.
(use-package swiper
:after ivy
:bind (("C-s" . swiper)
("C-r" . swiper)))
#+end_src
** Making M-x Great Again!
The following line removes the annoying '^' in things like counsel-M-x and other ivy/counsel prompts. The default '^' string means that if you type something immediately after this string only completion candidates that begin with what you typed are shown. Most of the time, I'm searching for a command without knowing what it begins with though.
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(setq ivy-initial-inputs-alist nil)
#+end_src
Smex is a package the makes M-x remember our history. Now M-x will show our last used commands first.
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(use-package smex)
(smex-initialize)
#+end_src
** Ivy-posframe
Ivy-posframe is an ivy extension, which lets ivy use posframe to show its candidate menu. Some of the settings below involve:
+ ivy-posframe-display-functions-alist -- sets the display position for specific programs
+ ivy-posframe-height-alist -- sets the height of the list displayed for specific programs
Available functions (positions) for 'ivy-posframe-display-functions-alist'
+ ivy-posframe-display-at-frame-center
+ ivy-posframe-display-at-window-center
+ ivy-posframe-display-at-frame-bottom-left
+ ivy-posframe-display-at-window-bottom-left
+ ivy-posframe-display-at-frame-bottom-window-center
+ ivy-posframe-display-at-point
+ ivy-posframe-display-at-frame-top-center
=NOTE:= If the setting for 'ivy-posframe-display' is set to 'nil' (false), anything that is set to 'ivy-display-function-fallback' will just default to their normal position in Doom Emacs (usually a bottom split). However, if this is set to 't' (true), then the fallback position will be centered in the window.
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(use-package ivy-posframe
:init
(setq ivy-posframe-display-functions-alist

* LANGUAGE SUPPORT
Adding packages for programming langauges, so we can have nice things like syntax highlighting.

* MAGIT
A git client for Emacs. Often cited as a killer feature for Emacs.
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(use-package magit)
#+end_src
* NEOTREE
Neotree is a file tree viewer. When you open neotree, it jumps to the current file thanks to neo-smart-open. The neo-window-fixed-size setting makes the neotree width be adjustable. NeoTree provides following themes: classic, ascii, arrow, icons, and nerd. Theme can be configed by setting "two" themes for neo-theme: one for the GUI and one for the terminal. I like to use 'SPC t' for 'toggle' keybindings, so I have used 'SPC t n' for toggle-neotree.
| COMMAND | DESCRIPTION | KEYBINDING |
|----------------+---------------------------+------------|
| neotree-toggle | /Toggle neotree/ | SPC t n |
| neotree- dir | /Open directory in neotree/ | SPC d n |
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp

Org-bullets gives us attractive bullets rather than asterisks.
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(use-package org-bullets)
(add-hook 'org-mode-hook (lambda () (org-bullets-mode 1)))
#+end_src
** Org Link Abbreviations
This allows for the use of abbreviations that will get expanded out into a lengthy URL.
#+begin_src emacs-lisp

"|" ; The pipe necessary to separate "active" states and "inactive" states
"DONE(d)" ; Task has been completed
"CANCELLED(c)" ))) ; Task has been cancelled
#+end_src
** Source Code Block Tag Expansion
Org-tempo is a package that allows for '<s' followed by TAB to expand to a begin_src tag. Other expansions available include:
| Typing the below + TAB | Expands to ... |
|------------------------+-----------------------------------------|
| <a | '#+BEGIN_EXPORT ascii' … '#+END_EXPORT |
| <c | '#+BEGIN_CENTER' … '#+END_CENTER' |

* PERSPECTIVE
The Perspective package provides multiple named workspaces (or "perspectives") in Emacs, similar to multiple desktops in window managers like Awesome and XMonad. Each perspective has its own buffer list and its own window layout. This makes it easy to work on many separate projects without getting lost in all the buffers. Switching to a perspective activates its window configuration, and when in a perspective, only its buffers are available.
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(use-package perspective
:bind
("C-x C-b" . persp-list-buffers) ; or use a nicer switcher, see below
:config
(persp-mode))
#+end_src
* PROJECTILE
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(use-package projectile
:config
(projectile-global-mode 1))
#+end_src
* REGISTERS
Emacs registers are compartments where you can save text, rectangles and positions for later use. Once you save text or a rectangle in a register, you can copy it into the buffer once or many times; once you save a position in a register, you can jump back to that position once or many times. The default GNU Emacs keybindings for these commands (with the exception of counsel-register) involves 'C-x r' followed by one or more other keys. I wanted to make this a little more user friendly, so I chose to replace the 'C-x r' part of the key chords with 'SPC r'.
| COMMAND | DESCRIPTION | KEYBINDING |
|----------------------------------+----------------------------------+------------|
| copy-to-register | /Copy to register/ | SPC r c |
| frameset-to-register | /Frameset to register/ | SPC r f |
| insert-register | /Insert contents of register/ | SPC r i |
| jump-to-register | /Jump to register/ | SPC r j |
| list-registers | /List registers/ | SPC r l |
| number-to-register | /Number to register/ | SPC r n |
| counsel-register | /Interactively choose a register/ | SPC r r |
| view-register | /View a register/ | SPC r v |
| window-configuration-to-register | /Window configuration to register/ | SPC r w |
| increment-register | /Increment register/ | SPC r + |
| point-to-register | /Point to register/ | SPC r SPC |

* SCROLLING
Emacs' default scrolling is annoying because of the sudden half-page jumps. Also, I wanted to adjust the scrolling speed.
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(setq scroll-conservatively 101) ;; value greater than 100 gets rid of half page jumping
(setq mouse-wheel-scroll-amount '(3 ((shift) . 3))) ;; how many lines at a time
(setq mouse-wheel-progressive-speed t) ;; accelerate scrolling
(setq mouse-wheel-follow-mouse 't) ;; scroll window under mouse
#+end_src
* SHELLS
In my configs, all of my shells (bash, fish, zsh and the ESHELL) require my shell-color-scripts-git package to be installed. On Arch Linux, you can install it from the AUR. Otherwise, go to my shell-color-scripts repository on GitLab to get it.
** Eshell
Eshell is an Emacs 'shell' that is written in Elisp.
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(nvmap :prefix "SPC"
"e h" '(counsel-esh-history :which-key "Eshell history")
"e s" '(eshell :which-key "Eshell"))
#+end_src
+ 'eshell-syntax-highlighting' -- adds fish/zsh-like syntax highlighting.
+ 'eshell-rc-script' -- your profile for eshell; like a bashrc for eshell.
+ 'eshell-aliases-file' -- sets an aliases file for the eshell.
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(use-package eshell-syntax-highlighting
:after esh-mode
:config
(eshell-syntax-highlighting-global-mode +1))
(setq eshell-rc-script (concat user-emacs-directory "eshell/profile")

eshell-scroll-to-bottom-on-input t
eshell-destroy-buffer-when-process-dies t
eshell-visual-commands'("bash" "fish" "htop" "ssh" "top" "zsh"))
#+end_src
** Vterm
Vterm is a terminal emulator within Emacs. The 'shell-file-name' setting sets the shell to be used in M-x shell, M-x term, M-x ansi-term and M-x vterm. By default, the shell is set to 'fish' but could change it to 'bash' or 'zsh' if you prefer.
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(use-package vterm)
(setq shell-file-name "/bin/fish"
vterm-max-scrollback 5000)

* WHICH KEY
Which-key is a minor mode for Emacs that displays the key bindings following your currently entered incomplete command (a prefix) in a popup.
=NOTE:= Which-key has an annoying bug that in some fonts and font sizes, the bottom row in which key gets covered up by the modeline.
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(use-package which-key
:init
(setq which-key-side-window-location 'bottom
