Lazycat Emacs

AndyStewart's Emacs, include configs and extensions.

Best way to study this project is try every keybinding in init-key.el ;)

Download Source Code

1. Download lazycat-emacs source code:

git clone https://github.com/manateelazycat/lazycat-emacs.git

2. Fetch all submodules in lazycat-emacs:

git submodule update --init --recursive

git submodule foreach git reset --hard

git submodule foreach git checkout $(git remote show origin | awk '/HEAD 分支|HEAD branch/ {split($0, a, "："); print a[2]}')

Install On Mac

1. Download emacs git code

$ git clone --depth 1 git://git.savannah.gnu.org/emacs.git

2. Install compile dependencies

$ brew install autoconf automake texinfo gnutls pkg-config libxml2 --debug --verbose

3. Compile emacs git

$ cd ./emacs && ./autogen.sh

$ export LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/opt/libxml2/lib"
$ export CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/opt/libxml2/include"
$ export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/usr/local/opt/libxml2/lib/pkgconfig"

$ ./configure && make && make install

4. Install in launcher:

   open -R nextstep/Emacs.app

   and dragging Emacs to the Applications folder.

5. Add config in ~/.emacs

(defun add-subdirs-to-load-path (dir)
  "Recursive add directories to `load-path'."
  (let ((default-directory (file-name-as-directory dir)))
    (add-to-list 'load-path dir)
    (normal-top-level-add-subdirs-to-load-path)))
(add-subdirs-to-load-path "~/lazycat-emacs/site-lisp/")

(require 'init)

Install On Arch Linux

1. Install emacs git version:

sudo pacman -S emacs-git

or compile from source code:

git pull ; ./configure --prefix=/usr --with-x-toolkit=gtk3 --without-xim ; make -j32; sudo make install ; sudo rm /usr/local/share/applications/emacsclient.desktop

Use --without-xim option to avoid input method active in Emacs, emacs-rime is better solution.

2. Install Font:

sudo pacman -S wqy-microhei

Need install font TsangerJinKai03-6763, otherwise rime can't work

3. Install dependency for from EAF

4. Build my config symlink to emacs directory:

sudo ln -s /home/username/lazycat-emacs/site-lisp /usr/share/emacs/lazycat

5. Copy site-start.el in emacs directory to start my config:

sudo cp /home/username/lazycat-emacs/site-start.el /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/

Emacs29 native-comp branch will freeze if I put config in /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/, we need put config in ~/.emacs instead to avoid Emacs29 freeze.

Update extensions.

When I want upgrade extensions to newest version, I will use below command:

git submodule foreach git pull --rebase

FAQ

1. When you occur No avaliable parser for this buffer, please use treesit-install-language-grammar install grammar for current buffer.

Old extensions and configuration files.

In 2005, Emacs didn't have much advanced features, and it took me more than a decade to continuously improve Emacs.

Many extensions code that i wrote has been tossed, but I hope to still back up these unused code, I hope some of the those old code snippets can help other Elisp hackers

You can find those old extensions and configuration files at lazycat-emacs-time-machine
