After some profiling, it turns out map-put and map-delete are 5-7x
slower (more on Emacs 25) than delq, setf/alist-get and add-to-list for
small lists (under 250 items), which is exactly how I've been using
them.
The only caveat is alist-get's signature is different on Emacs 25, thus
a polyfill is necessary in core-lib.
Now accepts a flat plist of all its former parameters, including new
:parameters and :actions properties to increase your control over the
fate of your windows.
The old usage of set-popup-rule! is deprecated and may not work right!
The :ui popup module has also seen a major refactor to improve
efficiency and load times.
Sorry! This is the last "big" change before 2.1!
+ :popup -> set-popup-rule!
+ :popups -> set-popup-rules!
+ :company-backend -> set-company-backend!
+ :evil-state -> set-evil-initial-state!
I am slowly phasing out the setting system (def-setting! and set!),
starting with these.
What are autodefs? These are functions that are always defined, whether
or not their respective modules are enabled. However, when their modules
are disabled, they are replaced with macros that no-op and don't
waste time evaluating their arguments.
The old set! function will still work, for a while.
This is in preparation for general.el integration coming in 2.1.1. It is
very likely that map! will change (and even more, be split into several
macros). Not much, but change none-the-less. Specifically, the state
keywords (e.g. :nvi, :n, :i) will be removed in favor of a :state
property that takes a list, e.g. (normal visual insert).
In any case, both map! and general are also relatively expensive
compared to define-key and evil-define-key* (and the new define-key!
macro), so use that when we can.
This also means changes to either API won't affect Doom's modules in the
long term.
Adds +helm/project-search, as well as +helm/ag and +helm/ag-from-cwd,
and variants for rg, pt and grep/git-grep, to mirror the functionality
available to :completion ivy.
Also updates the evil ex commands and keybinds
Fuzzy search, on its own, is inaccurate when individual candidates are long. Helm's non-fuzzy search backend doesn't have this problem. This adds `flx` sorting to fuzzy search to make up for this.
Now that we are loading package autoloads files (as part of the
generated doom-package-autoload-file when running make autoloads), many
:commands properties are redundant. In fact, many def-package! blocks
are redundant.
In some cases, we can do without a config.el file entirely, and can move
into the autoloads file or rely entirely on package autoloads.
Also, many settings have been moved in their module's autoloads files,
which makes them available ASAP; their use no longer depends on module
load order.
This gained me a modest ~10% boost in startup speed.
:defer now supports a hook, a cons cell with (SYMBOL . INTEGER) where
SYMBOL is a hook and INTEGER is a number of idle seconds before the
package is autoloaded, or just the integer (as per the default behavior
of :defer).
Also fixes an issue where switch-buffer-deffered packages (like
smartparens) wouldn't load.
package-initialize, once again, isn't called on every startup, which
means package autoloads won't be loaded in most interactive sessions, so
must do it manually for certain packages.
This is a breaking change! Update your :popup settings. Old ones will
throw errors!
Doom's new popup management system casts off its shackles (hur hur) and
replaces them with the monster that is `display-buffer-alist`, and
window parameters.
However, this is highly experimental! Expect edge cases. Particularly
with org-mode and magit (or anything that does its own window
management).
Relevant to #261, #263, #325
+ Add doom-init-hook and doom-post-init-hook to simplify Emacs init
hooks into less ambiguous ones.
+ Attach former after-init-hook and emacs-startup-hook hooks to new doom
init hooks.
+ Vastly improves daemon and tty support: preventing incorrect colors
from bleeding across face class barriers, and into GUI Emacs and vice
versa, when spawned with emacsclient.
+ Fix persp-mode breaking Emacs daemon, and ensuring that initialization
is done properly in terminal Emacs (and emacsclient frames).
