This is the set of files that powers my day-to-day computing experience.
|
||||
GNU Emacs is its centrepiece, with other programs providing ancillary
|
||||
functionalities. In some cases, such as with the configurations for Vim
|
||||
and Xterm, all relevant files are carried over from my pre-Emacs days
|
||||
and are maintained as a contingency plan or in case I need to revisit
|
||||
some old setup.

## How to reproduce my Emacs setup

This is discussed in the heading _"How to reproduce your dotemacs?"_ of

my `prot-emacs.org`. Either find it there, or read it on the website:

## How to reproduce my Emacs setup
|
||||
|
||||
I am not using `use-package` so this will not be an easy ride. It is
|
||||
better for you to peruse the relevant files and copy whatever you want
|
||||
instead of reproducing the whole thing.

## BSPWM configuration
|
||||
|
||||
As of 2021-08-27 I am back to using BSPWM. Emacs remains the
|
||||
centrepiece of my computing environment, though I got bored with Xfce
|
||||
and thought I would re-use my old configurations. There have been some

|
||||
work-in-progress until further notice.
|
||||
|
||||
## Experiments with Sway
|
||||
|
||||
Starting on 2021-09-21, I maintain configuration related to the Sway
|
||||
window manager. The plan is to switch to Wayland at some point in the
|
||||
near future. Sway is a stable package for testing things, though I am
|
||||
not sure I will stick with it. Perhaps there is another window manager
|
||||
I might like more. In the meantime, **consider everything related to
|
||||
Sway to be highly experimental, unstable, and subject to removal without
|
||||
prior notice**.
