#+LATEX: \begin{abstract}
GNU Emacs is most often used as a text editor.
The utmost level of customisation is afforded by enabling the user
to rewrite \textit{any} part of the source code and observe the editor's
modified behaviour in real time. Since its inception in 1984, GNU Emacs
has grown to be much more than a full-featured, high-productivity
text editor---new \textit{modes} have been written to interact with
hundreds of file formats, including \texttt{.txt}, \texttt{.pdf},
\texttt{.jpg}, \texttt{.csv}, and \texttt{.zip} just to name a few.
This configuration file itself was written in \textit{Org mode},
a collection of functions enabling the harmonious mixing of code
and comments in view of publication:
this is the endgame of \textit{literate programming}.
#+LATEX: \end{abstract}

* Introduction

The following sections were laid out very deliberately. When we start Emacs,
Emacs Lisp source blocks contained in this document are evaluated
sequentially. This means that our editing environment is bootstrapped at every
Emacs startup! For instance, we only begin loading packages once we ensured
~use-package~ is working properly.

Customizing Emacs goes far, far beyond this document---feel free to experiment
and discover.

- ~C-h f~ describe function
- ~C-h v~ describe variable
- ~C-h k~ describe key

These three commands will attempt to describe the element currently under our
cursor, however you can start typing to search for another symbol.

* TODO First-time setup

Spacemacs-like dialog for default settings.

#+NAME: first-setup
# #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
#     ;; Prompt enterprise or personal install. Create file in .emacs.d/ on Linux,
#     ;; AppData/ on Windows. Ask user for details and preferred bindings.
#
#   ; Check if .emacs.d exists
#
#   ; If it does, warn user
#
#   ; Copy init-bootstrap.el from USB to where operating systems expects init.el
#
#   ;;   (defun blendoit/first-time-setup-windows-nt ()
#   ;;     "Execute the first-time setup on MS Windows.
#   ;; If no `.emacs.d/' config exists on local system, copy
#   ;; init-bootstrap.el to `~.emacs.d/'."
#   ;;      (interactive)
#   ;;      (find-file "~/.emacs.d/blendoit/blendoit-init.org"))
#
#   ;; (cond ((string-equal system-type "windows-nt")blendoit/first-time-setup-windows-nt)
#         ;; ((string-equal system-type "gnu/linux") blendoit/first-time-setup-linux))
# #+END_SRC

** File system paths

In this subsection, we tell Emacs about relevant paths to resources.

On my MS Windows machine, I add the path to Portable Git.[fn::Download from
https://git-scm.com/download/win]

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(if (string-equal system-type "windows-nt")
    (add-to-list 'exec-path "C:/Users/marius.peter/PortableGit/bin/"))
#+END_SRC

* Early setup

** Garbage collection

First, we increase the RAM threshold beyond which the garbage collector is
activated.

#+NAME: garbage-collection
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(setq gc-cons-threshold 100000000)
#+END_SRC

** Profiling --- start

We start the profiler now , and will interrupt it in Section [[Profiling ---
stop]]. We will then present profiling report in Section [[Profiling --- report]].

#+NAME: profiler-start
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
; (profiler-start)
#+END_SRC

** Emacs client

Makes opening emacs faster for following instances.

#+NAME: emacs-client
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
; (setq initial-buffer-choice (lambda () (get-buffer "*dashboard*")))
#+END_SRC

** Custom file

Load settings created automatically by GNU Emacs Custom. (For example, any
clickable option/toggle is saved here.) Useful for fooling around with M-x
customize-group <package>.

user-emacs-directory

#+NAME: custom-file-location
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
  (setq custom-file (concat user-emacs-directory "init-custom.el"))
  (load custom-file)
#+END_SRC

** Customization shortcuts

We begin by defining a user shortcut to this very file. We load this as early as
possible, this facilitates debugging.

#+NAME: shortcut-config
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
  (defun my/find-literate-config ()
    "Jump to this very file."
    (interactive)
    (find-file my/literate-config))

  (global-set-key (kbd "C-c c") 'my/find-literate-config)
#+END_SRC

Now, different shortcuts for other customization actions:

#+NAME: shortcuts-customization
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
  (global-set-key (kbd "C-c v") 'customize-variable)
  (global-set-key (kbd "C-c f") 'customize-face)
#+END_SRC

** Backups

Backups are so important that they should be described right after the shortcut
to this file.

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
  (setq backup-directory-alist `((".*" . ,temporary-file-directory))
  auto-save-file-name-transforms `((".*" ,temporary-file-directory t))
      backup-by-copying t    ; Don't delink hardlinks
      version-control t      ; Use version numbers on backups
      delete-old-versions t  ; Automatically delete excess backups
      kept-new-versions 20   ; how many of the newest versions to keep
      kept-old-versions 5    ; and how many of the old
      )
#+END_SRC

** Initial and default frames

We set the dimensions of the inital and default frames.

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
  (add-to-list 'default-frame-alist '(width  . 100))
  (add-to-list 'default-frame-alist '(height . 50))

  (add-to-list 'initial-frame-alist '(width  . 100))
  (add-to-list 'initial-frame-alist '(height . 50))
#+END_SRC

*** GNU/Linux

These settings affect the first and subsequent frames spawned by Emacs in
GNU/Linux. Frame transparency increases when focus is lost.

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
  (when (and (display-graphic-p) (string-equal system-type "gnu/linux"))
    (set-frame-parameter (selected-frame) 'alpha '(90 . 50))
    (add-to-list 'default-frame-alist '(alpha . (90 . 50))))
#+END_SRC

** Secrets

#+INCLUDE: ./secrets.org

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
  (setq user-full-name "Marius Peter"
        user-mail-address "blendoit@gmail.com")
#+END_SRC

* Global key bindings

The following bindings strive to further enhance CUA[fn::Common User Access.]
mode.

** Navigation

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
  (global-set-key (kbd "C-`") 'delete-other-windows)
  (global-set-key (kbd "C-s") 'save-buffer)
  (global-set-key (kbd "C-r") 'counsel-recentf)
#+END_SRC

*** ~find-file~

Open file with ~C-o~.

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
  (global-set-key (kbd "C-o") 'find-file)
#+END_SRC

*** ~counsel-locate~

Locate file.

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
  (global-set-key (kbd "C-c l") 'counsel-locate)
#+END_SRC

*** Exit behaviours

The following bindings lead to more natural exit behaviors.

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
  (defun delete-window-or-previous-buffer ()
    "Delete window; if sole window, previous buffer."
     (interactive)
     (if (> (length (window-list)) 1)
       (delete-window)
       (previous-buffer)))

(global-set-key (kbd "C-w") 'delete-window-or-previous-buffer)
(global-set-key (kbd "C-q") 'save-buffers-kill-terminal)
#+END_SRC

** Mouse zoom

The typical binding on both GNU/Linux and MS Windows is adequate here: ~C-=~ to
zoom in, ~C--~ to zoom out.

It seems that starting with Emacs 27.1, Control + mousewheel works.

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(global-set-key (kbd "C--") 'text-scale-decrease)
(global-set-key (kbd "C-=") 'text-scale-increase)
(global-set-key (kbd "C-+") 'text-scale-increase)
#+END_SRC

* Packages

Packages are collections of =.el= files providing added functionality to Emacs.

** Meta

How do we bootstrap packages? First, let's figure out:

1. Where we get our packages from
2. How we upgrade packages
3. How we ensure our required packages are installed

*** Package archives

List of package archives.

#+NAME: package-archives
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
  (require 'package)
  (add-to-list 'package-archives '("melpa" . "https://melpa.org/packages/") t)
  (add-to-list 'package-archives '("org" . "https://orgmode.org/elpa/") t)
  (package-initialize)
#+END_SRC

*** TODO Convenient package update

One-function rollup of upgradeable package tagging, download and lazy install.

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp

#+END_SRC

*** ~use-package~

We ensure =use-package= is installed, as well as all packages described in this
configuration file.

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
  (unless (package-installed-p 'use-package)
    (package-refresh-contents)
    (package-install 'use-package)
    (eval-when-compile (require 'use-package)))
  (setq use-package-always-ensure t)
(require 'use-package)
(require 'bind-key)
#+END_SRC

*** ~delight~

With this package, we suppress the mention of certain minor modes in the mode
line/powerline. We include it in Meta (cf. [[Meta]]) because it concerns all
other packages.

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
  (use-package delight)
  (delight '((org-indent-mode)
             (bufface-mode)))
#+END_SRC

** ~org-mode~

Phew, I can finally introduce Org mode! I am so *excited*.

Org mode replaces aword processor, a presentation creator, and a spreadsheet
editor. IMHO, the spreadsheet ability captures more than 80% use cases wherein
one wishes to include a table in a text document destined for physical
publication. (It is clear that Excel spreadsheets are /not/ destined for
physical publication---simply attempt to print an Excel spreadsheet with the
default settings.)  In my opinion, Org mode matches all /useful/ features of
the Microsoft Office suite 1-to-1.

What follows are customizations designed to make Org mode behave more like
Microsoft Word. The end goal is, once again, to draw as many new users to Emacs
as possible!

*** Basic customization

Org base directory is in user home on GNU/Linux, or in =AppData= in MS Windows.

#+NAME: org-basic
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
  (setq org-directory (concat user-emacs-directory "~/org"))
#+END_SRC

First, we hide markup symbols for *bold*, /italic/, _underlined_ and
+strikethrough+ text, and ensure our document appears indented upon
loading:[fn::It /appears/ indented, but the underlying plaintext file does not
contain tab characters!]

For the time being, I will in fact display emphasis markers, because hiding
them corrupts tables.

#+NAME: org-basic
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
  (setq org-hide-emphasis-markers nil)
  (setq org-startup-indented t)
#+END_SRC

Then, we customize Org headings to emulate WYSIWYG[fn::What You See Is What You
Get (input and output are identical), as opposed to What You See Is What You
Mean (the input contains instructions that can modify the output).] behavior
normally found in Word:

*** Invisible edits

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(setq org-catch-invisible-edits t)
#+END_SRC

*** Agenda

The agenda displays a chronological list of headings across all agenda files
for which the heading or body contain a matching =org-time-stamp=.[fn::An
=org-time-stamp= can be inserted with ~C-c .~ (period)]

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
  (global-set-key (kbd "C-c a") 'org-agenda-list)

  (defun my/find-diary-file ()
    "Load `org-agenda-diary-file'."
    (interactive)
    (find-file org-agenda-diary-file))

  (global-set-key (kbd "C-c d") 'my/find-diary-file)
#+END_SRC

*** Timestamps

More literary timestamps are exported to LaTeX using the following custom
format:

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
  (setq org-time-stamp-custom-formats
    '("%d %b, %Y (%a)" . "%d %b, %Y (%a), at %H:%M"))
#+END_SRC

*** LaTeX export

The following makes =TODO= items appear red and =CLOSED= items appear green in
Org's LaTeX exports. Very stylish, much flair!

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
  (setq org-latex-active-timestamp-format
        "\\textcolor{SteelBlue}{\\texttt{%s}}")
  (setq org-latex-inactive-timestamp-format
        "\\textcolor{ForestGreen}{\\texttt{%s}}")
#+END_SRC

*** Publish

In the following /alist/ (association list), we describe the projects publishable
via =org-publish=. We separate the publishing of =.org= files and attachments,
because an online tutorial recommended we do so.

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(require 'ox-publish)
(setq org-publish-project-alist
        '(
          ("Safran-VIP-html"
           :base-directory "~/org/WORK/Safran/programs/B787/VIP/doc/org/"
           :base-extension "org"
           :publishing-directory "~/org/WORK/Safran/programs/B787/VIP/doc/wiki/"
           :recursive t
           :publishing-function org-html-publish-to-html
           :auto-preamble t
           :auto-sitemap t
           :sitemap-title "" )
          ("Safran-VIP-static"
           :base-directory "~/org/WORK/Safran/programs/B787/VIP/doc/org/"
           :base-extension "css\\|js\\|png\\|jpg\\|gif\\|pdf\\|mp3\\|mp4\\|ogg\\|swf"
           :publishing-directory "~/org/WORK/Safran/programs/B787/VIP/doc/wiki/"
           :recursive t
           :publishing-function org-publish-attachment )
          ("Safran-VIP-all"
           :components ("Safran-VIP-html" "Safran-VIP-static"))
          ("Safran-MA700-html"
           :base-directory "~/org/WORK/Safran/programs/MA700/doc/org/"
           :base-extension "org"
           :publishing-directory "~/org/WORK/Safran/programs/MA700/doc/wiki/"
           :recursive t
           :publishing-function org-html-publish-to-html
           :auto-preamble t
           :auto-sitemap t
           :sitemap-title "" )
          ("Safran-MA700-static"
           :base-directory "~/org/WORK/Safran/programs/MA700/doc/org/"
           :base-extension "css\\|js\\|png\\|jpg\\|gif\\|pdf\\|mp3\\|mp4\\|ogg\\|swf"
           :publishing-directory "~/org/WORK/Safran/programs/MA700/doc/wiki/"
           :recursive t
           :publishing-function org-publish-attachment )
          ("Safran-MA700-all"
           :components ("Safran-MA700-html" "Safran-MA700-static"))))
#+END_SRC

*** Export

This creates a shorter binding for the most common Org export: Org \rightarrow
LaTeX \rightarrow PDF.

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(defun my/org-quick-export ()
  "Org export to PDF and open.
  This basically reimplements `C-c C-e l o'."
  (interactive)
    (org-open-file (org-latex-export-to-pdf)))

(global-set-key (kbd "C-c e") 'my/org-quick-export)
#+END_SRC

** TODO ~evil-mode~

Forgive me, for I have sinned.

This is the 2^{nd} most significant customization after ~org-mode~. Enabling
~evil-mode~ completely changes editing keys. For more information on =vi=
keybindings, visit [[https://hea-www.harvard.edu/~fine/Tech/vi.html]].

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
  (use-package evil)

(setq custom-theme-directory (concat user-emacs-directory "themes/"))
(load-theme 'blendoit-light)
; (load-theme 'blendoit-dark)
#+END_SRC

** My light and dark themes

A highly legible unambiguous and thoughtful theme.

*** Colors

The default face is a black foreground on a white background, this matches MS
Word. We are striving for a simple, intuitive color scheme.

Most of the visual cues derived from color are identical in both light and dark
themes (Table [[theme-color-1]]).

#+NAME: theme-color-1
#+CAPTION[Light and dark themes' colors]: Light and dark themes' colors.
#+ATTR_LATEX: :booktabs t
| Color                           | ~blendoit-light~                | ~blendoit-dark~    |

*** Cursors

In order to imitate other modern text editors, we resort to a blinking bar
cursor. We choose red, the most captivating color, because the cursor is
arguably the region on our screen:

1. most often looked at;
2. most often searched when lost.

In files containing only ~fixed-pitch~ fonts (i.e. files containing only code),
the cursor becomes a high-visibility box.

In files containing a mix of ~variable-pitch~ and ~fixed-pitch~ fonts, the
cursor is a more MS Word-like bar.

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(setq-default cursor-type (quote bar))
#+END_SRC

*** Faces

- ~default~: Hack

**** ~variable-pitch-mode~

We use ~variable-pitch-mode~ for appropriate modes.

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(add-hook 'org-mode-hook 'variable-pitch-mode)
(add-hook 'info-mode-hook 'variable-pitch-mode)
#+END_SRC

** TODO ~minimal~

* Editing preferences

These customizations enhance editor usability.

A line of text is considered `filled' when it reaches 79 characters in length.

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
  (setq-default fill-column 79)
#+END_SRC

We replace the longer ~yes-or-no-p~ questions with more convenient ~y-or-n-p~.

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
  (defalias 'yes-or-no-p 'y-or-n-p)
#+END_SRC

Disable minibuffer scroll bar.

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(set-window-scroll-bars (minibuffer-window) nil nil)
#+END_SRC

Save cursor location in visited buffer after closing it or Emacs.

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(save-place-mode 1)
#+END_SRC

Saving any file in ~user-emacs-directory~ (by default on Emacs, =~/emacs.d=)
shall byte-recompile the entire =.emacs/= directory, for increased speed.

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
  ;; (defun my/byte-compile-user-config ()
  ;;   "Byte-compile dotfiles if current file is in `user-emacs-directory'.
  ;;   Also tangles `my-literate-config'."
  ;;   (interactive)
  ;;   (if (string-equal buffer-file-name my/literate-config)
  ;;       (org-babel-tangle))
  ;;   (if (string-prefix-p user-emacs-directory default-directory)
  ;;       (byte-recompile-directory (concat user-emacs-directory "blendoit/") 0)))

  ;; (add-hook 'after-save-hook my/byte-compile-user-config)
#+END_SRC

** Clean up menus

Originally, I wished to inhibit certain entries in the GUI menus. Not worth the
effort at this time.

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(menu-bar-mode -1)
(tool-bar-mode -1)
#+END_SRC

** Coding standards

This is just a better default. Don't @ me.

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(setq c-default-style "linux"
      c-basic-offset 4)
#+END_SRC

** Dividers

This ensures users can resize windows using the GUI.

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(menu-bar-bottom-and-right-window-divider)
#+END_SRC

** Tabs

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp

#+END_SRC

** ~auto-fill~

Automatically break lines longer than =fill-column=.

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
  (add-hook 'org-mode-hook 'turn-on-auto-fill)
#+END_SRC

** Recent files

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
  (recentf-mode 1)
  (setq recentf-max-menu-items 25)
  (setq recentf-max-saved-items 25)
  (run-at-time nil (* 5 60) 'recentf-save-list)
#+END_SRC

** ~pop-up-frames~

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
;  (setq pop-up-frames (quote graphic-only))
#+END_SRC

* Late setup

** Profiling --- stop

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
;; (profiler-stop)
#+END_SRC

** Profiling --- report

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
;; (profiler-report)
#+END_SRC

* Conclusion

In this configuration file, we described a series of customization steps taken
to make Emacs more palatable to modern IDE users.
