#+title: Emacs Configuration
#+AUTHOR: Preston Pan
#+DESCRIPTION: my personal emacs configuration for nixOS
#+html_head: <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="../style.css" />
* Introduction
This is my Vanilla Emacs configuration, made to work with my NixOS configuration. For that
reason, you will not see :ensure t inside any use-package declaration, for emacs packages
are all compiled natively and reproducibly on the NixOS side. This configuration uses the
emacs-lisp language only to configure variables for said packages, for the most part.
** User
Change these variables:
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(setq system-email "ret2pop@gmail.com")
(setq system-username "prestonpan")
(setq system-fullname "Preston Pan")
#+end_src
** Emacs
These are all the options that need to be set at the start of the program. Because use-package
is largely declarative, the order of many of these options should not matter. However, there
is some imperative programming that must be done. Hooks are also largely declarative in this
configuration as they are also defined using the use-package macros. Some of these options will
have documentation strings attached, so it is easy to follow what the individual options do.
Emacs is self documenting, after all!
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(use-package emacs

(mouse-wheel-progressive-speed nil "Make scrolling non laggy")
(mouse-wheel-follow-mouse 't "Scroll correct window")
(scroll-conservatively 101 "Sort of smooth scrolling")
(scroll-step 1 "Scroll one line at a time")

#+end_src
As you can see, the config (and sometimes the init section) of most of these use-package blocks
contain most of the imperative commands. In fact, most of the configurations are completely
declarative without any imperative programming at all (i.e. hooks and custom options). Note
that Emacs lambdas contain imperative state, unlike in [[file:nix.org][NixOS]] where lambdas can contain function
applications but they themselves are mainly declarative. Usually, however, the lambdas or
functions do little to nothing and are mainly wrappers for executing two commands or for giving
a variable an option. Often you will see a config section of a use-package declaration have
only one or two entries, which is intentional, as I've designed this configuration to put as
little in config as possible. I hardly consider most of this configuration to be imperative, but
of course Emacs was not designed to be fully imperative.
** Org Mode
This is my org mode configuration, which also configures latex.
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(use-package org
:custom
(org-confirm-babel-evaluate nil "Don't ask to evaluate code block")
(org-export-with-broken-links t "publish website even with broken links")

(TeX-PDF-mode t)
(org-latex-pdf-process '("xelatex -interaction=nonstopmode -output-directory=%o %f") "set xelatex as default")
(TeX-engine 'xetex "set xelatex as default engine")
(preview-default-option-list '("displaymath" "textmath" "graphics") "preview latex")
(preview-image-type 'png "Use PNGs")
(org-format-latex-options (plist-put org-format-latex-options :scale 1.5) "space latex better")
(org-return-follows-link t "be able to follow links without mouse")
(org-habit-preceding-days 1 "See org habit entries")
(org-startup-indented t "Indent the headings")
(org-image-actual-width '(300) "Cap width")

(org-publish-project-alist
'(("website-org"

:publishing-directory "~/website_html"
:recursive t

(require 'org-habit)
(org-babel-do-load-languages 'org-babel-load-languages

(latex . t))))
#+end_src
As you can see, I only have one real entry in config here (I don't count requires even though
they have to be on the top)
* Unicode
I want emacs to have unicode fonts.
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(use-package unicode-fonts
:init (unicode-fonts-setup))
#+end_src
* Autopair
Use electric-pair to automatically complete pairs of things. We need to change
what electric-pair does based on the mode.
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(use-package electric-pair
:hook ((prog-mode . electric-pair-mode)))
#+end_src
* Lyrics
This currently doesn't work I'm pretty sure, but it's supposed to fetch lyrics from mpd.
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(use-package lyrics-fetcher
:after (emms)
:custom
(lyrics-fetcher-genius-access-token (password-store-get "genius_api") "Use genius for backend")
:config
(lyrics-fetcher-use-backend 'genius))
#+end_src
* Fragtog
This package is used to generate previews automatically when your cursor hovers over a latex
snippet.
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(use-package org-fragtog :hook (org-mode . org-fragtog-mode))
#+end_src
* Snippets
Yasnippets are useful for macros that automatically complete to an arbitrary form.
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(use-package yasnippet
:config
(add-to-list 'yas-snippet-dirs "~/monorepo/yasnippet/")
(yas-global-mode 1)
:hook (org-mode . (lambda () (yas-minor-mode) (yas-activate-extra-mode 'latex-mode))))
#+end_src
* Completion
Company-mode! We need this to do autocomplete stuff.
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(use-package company
:config
'(add-to-list 'company-backends '(company-ispell company-capf company-yasnippet company-files))
:hook ((after-init . global-company-mode)))
#+end_src
* Spelling
This loads a dictionary so that I can save certain words to be not misspelled and also have
this spellcheck during org mode.
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(use-package ispell
:custom
(ispell-program-name "aspell" "use aspell")
(ispell-silently-savep t "Save changes to dict without confirmation")
(ispell-dictionary "en" "Use english dictionary")
(ispell-alternate-dictionary "~/.local/share/dict" "dict location"))
(use-package flyspell
:hook (text-mode . flyspell-mode))
#+end_src
* Packages
First, some small configurations and some evil-mode initilaization because I like vim keybindings:
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(use-package evil
:custom
(evil-want-keybinding nil "Don't load a whole bunch of default keybindings")
:config
(evil-mode 1)
(evil-set-undo-system 'undo-redo)
(evil-set-initial-state 'pdf-view-mode 'normal))
(use-package evil-collection
:after (evil)
:config
(with-eval-after-load 'evil-maps
(define-key evil-motion-state-map (kbd "SPC") nil)
(define-key evil-motion-state-map (kbd "RET") nil)
(define-key evil-motion-state-map (kbd "TAB") nil))
(evil-collection-init))
(use-package evil-commentary
:after (evil)
:config
(evil-commentary-mode))
(use-package evil-org
:after (evil org)
:hook (org-mode . (lambda () evil-org-mode))
:config
(require 'evil-org-agenda)
(evil-org-agenda-set-keys))
(use-package which-key
:config
(which-key-mode))
(use-package page-break-lines
:init
(page-break-lines-mode))
#+end_src
** Journal
I use org-journal to journal about my life, and it's a part of my website:
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(use-package org-journal
:after (org)
:custom
(org-journal-dir "~/monorepo/journal/" "Set journal directory")
(org-journal-date-format "%A, %d %B %Y" "Date format")
(org-journal-file-format "%Y%m%d.org" "Automatic file creation format based on date")
(org-journal-enable-agenda-integration t "All org-journal entries are org-agenda entries")
:init
(defun org-journal-file-header-func (time)
"Custom function to create journal header."
(concat
(pcase org-journal-file-type
(`daily "#+TITLE: Daily Journal\n#+STARTUP: showeverything\n#+DESCRIPTION: My daily journal entry\n#+AUTHOR: Preston Pan\n#+HTML_HEAD: <link rel=\"stylesheet\" type=\"text/css\" href=\"../style.css\" />\n#+html_head: <script src=\"https://polyfill.io/v3/polyfill.min.js?features=es6\"></script>\n#+html_head: <script id=\"MathJax-script\" async src=\"https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/mathjax@3/es5/tex-mml-chtml.js\"></script>\n#+options: broken-links:t")
