Emacs

My personal Emacs configuration with contribution from friends.

Hopefully others might find this helpful. I don't believe in "starter-packs" such as oh-my-zsh, prelude or Spacemacs. I feel like the "one size fits all" approach leads to bloat and means that users are not familiar with either the tool or the options the package configured for them.

I mostly assembled bits and pieces over time as the need grew, but some sources served as inspiration and deserve explicit credit:

• emacs-fu
• magnars/.emacs.d
• vmalloc/emacs

Notes:

• Emacs 26.1 is required, older version will not work.
• For spell checking to work an ispell compatible program and dictionary need to be installed, e.g. aspell-en.
• By default cmark is used to markdown export/preview so it needs to be installed.
