***Deprecated***
I am now using a simple setup here https://github.com/jilen/.emacs.d
If you don’t have it installed already, go get a copy of GNU Emacs version 24.4 or later.
If you have an emacs.d already, move it out of the way (mv ~/.emacs.d ~/.emacs.d.bak
) or get rid of it (rm -rf ~/.emacs.d
) first.
To download Ohai Emacs as your new emacs.d:
$ git clone https://github.com/bodil/ohai-emacs.git ~/.emacs.d
That’s it! Now, the next time you start Emacs, Ohai Emacs will ask you a few questions about how you like things to be, and go on the internets and download some fresh packages for you. In a little while, it will be ready for your emacsing.
A full feature list is pending. A quick overview:
- Carefully styled for a fashionable look.
- Improved navigation, editing and code style settings.
- Use-package macro to isolate package configurations.
- Magit, the premier git frontend.
- Smart autocomplete with company-mode.
- Flycheck.
- Yasnippet.
- Paredit for Emacs Lisp.
- Improved JS and HTML modes with powerful refactoring tools.
- Nyan Cat.
While Ohai Emacs helps you get started quickly and without frustration, you must eventually learn Emacs Lisp in order to become an Emacs Master. The Ohai Emacs source code contains numerous comments designed to explain, often in detail, what it’s doing. The best (if not the fastest) way to learn what Ohai Emacs can do for you is to read the source.
Start at .emacs.d/init.el
. This sets up the basic environment, and loads each Ohai Emacs module from the .emacs.d/modules
directory in turn. Read through the .el
file in the module directory that are of interest to you, and you will find they explain the changes they make, often pointing you to useful documentation for the more powerful features.
