====== GNU Emacs ======

GNU Emacs is my editor of choice and it has been for quite a long time.

I use vanilla Emacs, configuring it manually each time I start using a computer.

===== Configuration =====

Here's the key part of my configuration, with some comments.

==== Packages ====

I only use Melpa packages.

<code lisp>
(require 'package)

(add-to-list 'package-archives '("melpa" . "http://melpa.org/packages/") t)

(package-initialize)
</code>

==== Behaviour ====

I hide everything I can, keep some (numbered) versions. I use FreeBSD, so I haven't got ''ls'' extension Dired usually uses.

<code lisp>
(setq inhibit-startup-message t
      initial-scratch-message ""
      version-control t
      delete-old-versions t
      kept-old-versions 10
      kept-new-versions 5
      dired-kept-versions 5
      uniquify-buffer-name-style 'post-forward-angle-brackets
      uniquify-strip-common-suffix t
      line-move-visual nil
      history-length 200
      visible-bell t)

(auto-save-visited-mode 1)

(save-place-mode 1)
(savehist-mode 1)

(setq dired-use-ls-dired nil)

(calendar-set-date-style 'iso)
(set-language-environment "Polish")
(set-default-coding-systems 'utf-8)
(setq calendar-week-start-day 1
      display-time-format "%d%^b W%0V")

(menu-bar-mode -1)
(tool-bar-mode -1)
(blink-cursor-mode 1)
(setq blink-cursor-blinks -1)
(display-time-mode 1)
(display-battery-mode 1)

(setq-default truncate-lines nil
	      fill-column 78)

(show-paren-mode t)
(setq show-paren-style 'parenthesis
      show-paren-delay 0.3)
</code>

==== Completion ====

Default completion is almost enough for me, I just add ''orderless'' to make it even better.

<code lisp>
(require 'orderless)

(setq completion-styles '(basic emacs22 flex orderless))
</code>
