emacs.d

Emacs, just the way I like it.

Installation

MacOS

First, install Emacs from Homebrew using the emacs-plus package:

brew tap d12frosted/emacs-plus
brew install d12frosted/emacs-plus/emacs-plus@29 --with-nobu417-big-sur-icon
osascript -e 'tell application "Finder" to make alias file to posix file "/opt/homebrew/opt/emacs-plus@29/Emacs.app" at POSIX file "/Applications"'

Then, clone this repo to ~/.emacs.d:

git clone https://github.com/ametzger/emacs.d.git ~/.emacs.d

The first time Emacs starts it will fizzle around a while as use-package downloads and compiles packages. Generally, startup is reasonably fast but it will start an Emacs server if one isn’t running so using emacsclient as the shell’s $EDITOR is usable.

Linux

Nothing too fancy on Linux, usually I’ll just use the emacs package of whatever distro I’m using.
