If you would scroll a little bit up in the msgs you would find a link (from ajit, me) of a lua nvim implementation
Only thing being you need to code in a way to delete old file (as on rename a new file is created) ← double check this
Independent buffers for same file https://youtu.be/Ey54ovJUdQ4?t=887
Buffers, windows and frames https://www.oreilly.com/library/view/learning-gnu-emacs/0596006489/ch04.html
zc
and zo
work to fold code. to fold jsx tags, there is <C-c><C-f>
. To go to bracket pair, use %
. To go to tag pair, there is <C-c><C-n>
.
Update: with matchit installed, all one would need is %
.
To get value of a variable, use <C-h>v
and type in the variable’s name.
Commands like :!sort
, :noh
, :read .bashrc
are still supported.
to switch to a buffer, use <C-x>b
.
In magit, sometimes j
command is overriden by vim keys. Use h
to bring help first and then type the key. Alternatively, use <C-z>
to toggle to Emacs mode.
Apart from <C-n>
<C-p>
, if fn overload is available (shown by 1/3), use alt+n
alt+p
to toggle b/w them.
^ C-j
and C-k
also works too
gd
and gD
to definition and references. SPC c t
will go to type definition. there’s SPC c i
to go to implementations. In
const fzf = new Fzf();
fzf.find();
try using gd
and SPC c t
on fzf which is in 2nd line to see the difference.
Right click, hover, mouse click, drag to resize splits (windows) works in emacs.
Don’t use lsp symbols for a file, use <SPC> s i
or g O
instead. LSP stuff is under <SPC> c
.
There is diff-buffer-with-file under M-x
to see modifications done after last save.
https://emacs.stackexchange.com/a/189 ← there is find alternate file option in emacs. Not sure how to use it
^ Also, this question is actually related to reloading the file when it changes on file system. the process is called reverting in emacs https://emacs.stackexchange.com/a/355.
To exit a command or a menu, while Esc works, another way is to <C-g>
. More at https://blog.aaronbieber.com/2015/05/24/from-vim-to-emacs-in-fourteen-days.html. q
also sometimes help you to quit buffers, info, helpers and finders.
<C-c>
is like user keymapping space. also it somewhat changes depending on which file/buffer you are on.
Workspaces https://github.com/hlissner/doom-emacs/blob/develop/modules/ui/workspaces/README.org
Echo all using ctrl+shift+t
add new using ctrl+t
M-x persp
or M-x workspace
^ C-c p ^ SPC TAB
^ this is better, gt
and gT
also works
nnoremap
(nore
) doesn’t exist because all maps are overrides. To see current key assignment command use SPC h k
or C-h k
and type that key. It can be a single key or key chord.
To get help on keybinding itself, see SPC h f map\!
.
Might be super outdated: github.com/noctuid/evil-guide
SPC o -
to open dired.
As doing ciw
on stuff_l|ike_this
would only affect like and not the whole variable, Doom provides cio

(change inner/around symbol). There are other text objects too, see https://github.com/hlissner/doom-emacs/blob/43ddb109703c25a105c4d2e156f6055ffc58181b/docs/faq.org#why-do-non-evil-users-get-expand-region-but-not-evil-users

To add lines below and above, there are shortcuts around 2 [ o

%
navigates to bracket pair. you can do the same using doom emacs, but using Tab is more ergonomic.
Update: with evil-matchit installed, using % is more preferrable.
From https://github.com/syl20bnr/spacemacs/issues/10502#issuecomment-404453194
(setq default-text-properties '(line-spacing 0.1 line-height 1.1))
Another option is https://github.com/tam5/font-patcher (uses fontforge, so not that good).
There is (SPC s i), while non-LSP, it also shows parent symbol (like constructor’s class name) thus it is more useful:
(evil-define-key 'normal 'global (kbd "SPC j") 'consult-lsp-file-symbols)
I don’t think i would ever use it, also seems like (SPC s s) just does exactly this:
(evil-define-key 'normal 'global (kbd "SPC l") 'consult-line)
Didn’t automatically detected projects for me
Also need to add a tmp wksp which isn’t ghq as it would be my playground:
(setq projectile-project-search-path '("~/ghq"))
Use M-<number>
to directly insert
or use C-<number>j
to navigate to the item in completion
(setq company-show-quick-access t)
If you want to expand snippet on TAB, disable https://github.com/hlissner/doom-emacs/blob/f73ae8eee176b46fc8d02d8702d2da9bc25b3472/modules/config/default/%2Bevil-bindings.el#L145
and use yas/expand instead (find it on M-x).
- Not sure if paste mode is needed but what I certainly need is a way to paste on the same line, meaning strip new line at the end if there’s any
- Plug ‘AndrewRadev/splitjoin.vim’ maybe I want this

Yanked from browser, deleted stuff on emacs and now used paste but it pasted the deleted text? Fear not, C-p
(evil-paste-pop) is here. (There’s also C-n
but it is to navigate forward in paste history.)
Don’t use visual mode to select and yank. your cursor will also won’t move after yanking if you are on normal mode (see https://github.com/emacs-evil/evil/issues/727). If you are on fn ending bracket, you can do y<tab>
to yank content inside {}
including brackets, otherwise do yV<tab>
to yank whole fn.
Use gss
to go to specific row and column.
(map! :nvo "gj" #'evilem-motion-next-line)

.

When using SPC SPC
and on a file list, use C-;
to see all available options for it (embark shows these options). While options list (which-key) is opened you can use C-h
to search and select an option. I still do not know how to see next list of options (2/3) for example through which key.

golang does auto import, but we also have M-x go impor
. (Past Ajit might meant import, not impor).
To swap lines, use M-arrow up/down. See https://discord.com/channels/406534637242810369/406554085794381833/936273837471985716
When searcing a project for text with SPC s p
, is there a way to limit to a specific file extension?
You could use foo -- -g*.org
(well, any ripgrep flags)
Don’t quote the glob term.
#foo#org
will work too, but will produce more false positives
The Y in #X#Y
is matched against all output, including file names.
foo -- ARGS
ARGS = ripgrep arguments
#foo#bar
bar = vertico/consult is doing the filtering
Indentation is detected using dtrt-indent-mode https://discord.com/channels/406534637242810369/406554085794381833/935927391430266900
Just so you know, as it looks like you already solved this issue but in C mode (and I believe even C-like modes, which is basically several modes) there’s a variable called c-indent-tabs-mode that supersedes the standard indent-tabs-mode. In fact, you should check whatever modes you use to see if and what formatting and indentation functionality they use, override, or downright ignore the standard settings of.

Make ls+ work (show only modified buffers, it’s a vim things)
How to only navigate through errors when warnings are shown too?

List search results and filter, remove, navigate (gf

Also a way to store ripgrep results in a folder for easy search on them like vim-bqf (there is embark-export but it’s somewhat clunky)

Doom works fine for me with emacs-ng after deleting .emacs.d and re-cloning/reinstalling Doom. You might be able to get way with just deleting .emacs.d/.local/straight and running doom build again.

If you visit the wrong file unintentionally by typing its name incorrectly, type C-x C-v
(find-alternate-file) to visit the file you really wanted. C-x C-v
is similar to C-x C-f
, but it kills the current buffer (after first offering to save it if it is modified). When C-x C-v
reads the file name to visit, it inserts the entire default file name in the buffer, with point just after the directory part; this is convenient if you made a slight error in typing the name.
M-x find-alternate-file <RET>
and then hitting enter is a great way to reset a file if :e(!)
