Josh's Emacs Config

Hey there! This repository contains my Emacs configuration file (see jmm-emacs.org). My org-mode configuration is located in jmm-org-config.org

Most of the documentation is included in the Emacs configuration itself, it's much like Sacha Chua's Emacs configuration.

This repo is not probably all that portable, so it may not work on your computer. It's mostly here so you can take the bits and pieces you find useful.

Some things that may be useful

• josh/helm-org-clock-in uses helm to quickly clock into Org-mode tasks
• josh/helm-org-jump uses helm to quickly jump to an Org-mode entry
• start-xterm quickly launches a new terminal, even ssh-ing into other machines if you're using tramp. (Sorry, I don't like using shell, eshell, or term) Actually I'm kinda really starting to like eshell and I've used ansi-term through shell-pop for a while.
  • Some eshell utilities like:
    • Making ls items clickable (either inserting the filename directly into the prompt or visiting the file at point)
    • Quickly changing directories to frequently used ones using fasd and ivy (see jmm/counsel-fasd-directories-eshell)
    • Quickly prompting eshell history with ivy (See jmm/eshell-prompt-history)
• Lots of git-annex utilities such as:
  • Quickly adding metadata with the keybinding @ t (See jmm/dired-git-annex-tag)
  • Marking git-annex files dired that match git-annex-matching-options (such as --not --copies=2 for marking files with only one copy). See jmm/dired-mark-files-git-annex-matching.
  • Showing git-annex file sizes (not symlink sizes!) in dired. (See jmm/dired-git-annex-add-real-file-sizes)
• Various notmuch utilities
  • Washing out tracking parameters and tracking/munged links in text/plain emails. (See jmm/notmuch-wash-decodable-links and jmm/notmuch-wash-superfluous-parameters)

Cangjie 5

I've also created a more complete Cangjie 5 input method in the elisp/cangjie5.el file. It's based off of libcangjie. This Cangjie method, compared to two built-in ones in Emacs (chinese-cns-tsangchi and chinese-b5-tsangchi) has the following features:

• Cangjie version 5 support (instead of version 3)
• Both simplified and traditional characters can be input
• Hitting <space> accepts input (a bit easier than C-<space>)
• Disambiguation of characters using "x". For example, "a" is "日" and "xa" is "曰" (or you can use "a" and then press "2")
