Henrik Lissner 3239ab8b2e nit(mu4e): neutralize comments
Some of our comments/docs can come off as disparaging or snide. They're
glimpses of unfiltered frustration or snarky rubber ducking gone too
far, something I can totally sympathize with, as a scatterbrained
tinkerer, unwittingly made responsible for a lot of work that isn't mine
because of Doom's position as a middleman. But now that Doom has a
veritable userbase, I'd like to hold it to a higher standard.

Light-hearted banter and aired grievances in our source code,
documentation, or community are fine if focused on the problem or the
personal/shared experiences of the community (things that offer value or
amusement to others), but it is never acceptable to attack people or
their efforts. Especially not the very people on whose shoulders Doom
stands.

I sincerely apologize if these have offended you.

:term eshell

Description   unfold

This module provides additional features for the built-in Emacs Shell

The Emacs Shell or eshell is a shell-like command interpreter implemented in Emacs Lisp. It is an alternative to traditional shells such as bash, zsh, fish, etc. that is built into Emacs and entirely cross-platform.

Module flags

This module has no flags.

Hacks

  • Even with fish-completion-fallback-on-bash-p non-nil, fish must be installed for bash completion to work. This has been circumvented.
  • eshell-did-you-mean does not work on first invocation, so we manually invoke it once.

TODO Changelog

This module does not have a changelog yet.

Installation

Enable this module in your doom! block.

This module requires either Fish shell or Bash for code completion.

TODO Usage

🔨 This module's usage documentation is incomplete. Complete it?

  • Command completion with Company
  • fish-style prompt with Git integration
  • z-like directory jumping
  • Command-not-found recommendations

TODO Configuration

🔨 This module's configuration documentation is incomplete. Complete it?

TERM name

By default, eshell sets the $TERM variable to "xterm-256color", which helps with rendering various colours. As eshell is not a terminal emulator, these will not always work 100%. Modifying eshell-term-name to your liking may help.
