Configs

Getting a little pedantic with my doom configs¹ these days..

(defmacro generate-bindable-lambda (&rest body)
  `#'(lambda ()
       (interactive)
       ,@body))

;; .. the home row ..
(map! :map evil-normal-state-map
      "C-M-i p" (generate-bindable-lambda (insert "+"))
      "C-M-i n" (generate-bindable-lambda (insert "-"))
      "C-M-i u" (generate-bindable-lambda (insert "_"))
      "C-M-i e" (generate-bindable-lambda (insert "=")))

Maybe I should consider buying foot pedals.., and eye trackers (3 screens at the moment ) .., and setting up an array of interface sensors to truly begin exploiting emacs.., to the point of conducting an orchestra of text buffers.., somewhat musically (/ whimsically?)..

I use emacs for a lot of my daily tasks and spend majority of my time in it. This is a review of some significant components of my init.el

;keyboard all the way
(menu-bar-mode -1)
(tool-bar-mode -1)
(scroll-bar-mode -1)

;I don't like distractions
(setq byte-compile-warnings '(cl-functions))
(setq ring-bell-function 'ignore)
(setq visible-bell t)

I chose the most recently engineered package-management solution when I began with emacs, haven’t switched since and don’t think I’ll need to. Migrating from vim, I preferred a configuration file rather than installations via melpa interface. Also, freezing and thawing is cool : exact reproducibility is guaranteed.
