The state of peer programming in Emacs isn't great. The floobits module
is only one line of code and doesn't warrant its own module.
impatient-mode is a little more useful, but is too niche and not
exclusively for peer programming, so I'm not convinced it belongs in
this category. Since there are no other good options, I'm just getting
rid of the category altogether.
- Eager-load all core autoloaded libraries if autoloads file isn't
present.
- Renames functions to be more descriptive of their true purpose:
- doom-initialize-autoloads -> doom-load-autoloads-file
- doom-load-env-vars -> doom-load-envvars-file
- Use doom-module-p instead of featurep! for backend use (the latter is
mainly syntax sugar for module use, and evaluates at compile/expansion
time, which may cause hash-table-p errors early in the startup
process).
- Reorder plist library to prevent load order race condition with the
functions using the macros that haven't been defined yet.
It would no-op if you responded "y" to the 'update them?' prompt, and
proceed if you responded "n".
Doom must be in its rebellious phase.
Also relevant: #1585
Now returns (:core) or (:private) for files in doom-core-dir and
doom-private-dir, respectively, and will otherwise return the module for
the current file if called with no arguments.
Also fixes the case where it would disregard arguments and return
whatever the current value of doom--current-module.
The trouble with with-eval-after-load is it arranges for the body to be
byte-compiled, whereas eval-after-load does not. I won't go into how
they do that here, but it causes us some trouble:
Macro calls in with-eval-after-load are eagerly (immediately) expanded
at startup, whether or not the package or macro is available and
regardless of its execution path.
This sucks for Doom because, when expanded, autoloaded macros will be
loaded, along with whatever baggage they've got with them, and this
happens long before they're actually used. We also can't guarantee those
macros are available at startup, which will cause void-function errors
when the interpreter later treats them like an ordinary function call.
So, the simple fix is to pass a quoted body form to eval-after-load
instead of the closure that with-eval-after-load will wrap it in. This
means the body won't get byte-compiled if we compile our config, but in
exchange, macros stay lazy-loaded until they're finally needed!
Wonderful.
