Description: | |
Here is a dump of my emacs config file. That may be useful for some | |
emacs users who begin. | |
If you doesn't want to have your_filename.txt~ files with a tilde at | |
the end (this is a default backup file), add this | |
(setq backup-inhibited t) | |
(setq auto-save-default nil) | |
To have parenthesis highlighting on match, which is very useful, you | |
will need this | |
; show match parenthesis | |
(show-paren-mode 1) | |
I really like this one. It will save the cursor position in every file | |
you edit. When you edit it again, you start exactly where you leaved | |
the last time. | |
(setq save-place-file "~/.emacs.d/saveplace") | |
(setq-default save-place t) | |
(require 'saveplace)` | |
If you write in utf-8 (which is very common now) you should add this. | |
; utf8 | |
(prefer-coding-system 'utf-8) | |
Emacs modes are used depending on the extension of a file. Sometime | |
you need to edit files with a custom extension but you want to use a | |
mode for it. So, you just need to add some line like this to get your | |
mode automatically when you load the file. | |
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.md\\'" . markdown-mode)) | |
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.tpl$" . html-mode)) | |
My Org-mode part in the config file | |
(require 'org) | |
(define-key global-map "\C-ca" 'org-agenda) | |
(setq org-log-done t) | |
(setq org-agenda-files (list "~/Org/work.org" "~/Org/home.org")) | |
Stop mixing tabs and space when indenting | |
(setq indent-tabs-mode nil) |
