Backup the =user-emacs-directory= which defaults often to =~/.emacs.d=. 2. Run the listing [[lst:prepare-user-emacs-directory-with-https][prepare the =user-emacs-directory= without =ssh= access]] or the listing [[lst:prepare-user-emacs-directory-with-ssh][prepare the =user-emacs-directory= with =ssh= access]] commands. After invoking Emacs interactively, Emacs will ask you to install a selected set of packages. Quit Emacs and invoke Emacs again. #+caption[Prepare the user-emacs-directory without =ssh= access]: #+caption: Clone and initialize the user-emacs-directory without =ssh= access. #+name: lst:prepare-user-emacs-directory-with-https #+begin_src shell -n :eval never :tangle no cd ~ git clone https://forge.chapril.org/gav451/emacs.d.git .emacs.d make --directory=.emacs.d init emacs & #+end_src #+caption[Prepare the =user-emacs-directory= with =ssh= access]: #+caption: Clone and initialize the user-emacs-directory with =ssh= access. #+name: lst:prepare-user-emacs-directory-with-ssh #+begin_src shell -n :eval never :tangle no cd ~ git clone ssh://gitea@forge.chapril.org:222/gav451/emacs.d.git .emacs.d make --directory=.emacs.d init emacs & #+end_src * Introduction :PROPERTIES: :CUSTOM_ID: sec:introduction :END: This Emacs setup aims to install automatically a minimal set of extension packages that allows to handle my reports and presentations. The file format of the reports is [[https://orgmode.org/][Org Mode]] plain text with [[https://www.python.org/][Python]] source code blocks and the file format of the presentations is [[https://www.latex-project.org/][LaTeX]]. This [[info:org#Top][org]] file (more precisely the original [[info:org#Top][org]] source file of this file) illustrates three methods in my work-flow: 1. How to tangle (or export) source blocks from [[info:org#Top][org]] files. This file contains source blocks to produce the files =early-init.el=, =init.el=, =latexmkrc=, =org-store-link=, and =example.py= by tangling. 2. How to export [[info:org#Top][org]] files to other formats such as [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTML][HTML]], [[https://www.latex-project.org/][LaTeX]], and [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PDF][PDF]]. 3. How [[info:org#Hyperlinks][org hyperlinks (info)]] allow to link inside and outside [[info:org#Top][Org Mode]]: hover over or click on the links to experiment. The [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AUCTeX][AUCTeX - Aalborg University Center TeX]] extension package provides a powerful [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Text-based_user_interface][Text-based User Interface (TUI)]] environment to edit the [[https://www.latex-project.org/][LaTeX]] presentations. The [[https://github.com/bdarcus/citar][Citar]] extension package provides quick filtering and selecting of bibliographic entries, and the option to run different commands on those selections. [[https://github.com/bdarcus/citar][Citar]] exploits the extension packages [[https://github.com/minad/vertico][Vertico]], [[https://github.com/oantolin/embark][Embark]], [[https://github.com/minad/marginalia][Marginalia]], and [[https://github.com/minad/consult][Consult]]. The [[https://github.com/andras-simonyi/citeproc-el][CiteProc]] extension package provides [[https://citationstyles.org/][CSL: citation style language]] processing capabilities to [[https://github.com/bdarcus/citar][Citar]] and [[https://orgmode.org/][Org Mode]]. A curated repository of CSL styles is the [[https://github.com/citation-style-language/styles#readme][citation style language repository]]. The [[https://github.com/vedang/pdf-tools][PDF-Tools]] extension package renders [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PDF][PDF]] file with the possibility to annotate the file or to click on anchors in the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PDF][PDF]] file that link back to the original [[https://www.latex-project.org/][LaTeX]] file of the document. An example of my work-flow are the steps to convert this [[info:org#Top][org]] file to [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PDF][PDF]] and to see the result with [[HTTPS://github.com/vedang/pdf-tools][PDF-Tools]] in Emacs: execute the commands ~pdf-tools-install~, ~org-babel-tangle~, ~org-latex-export-latex-to-latex~, and ~compile~. This sets up an infinite [[https://www.latex-project.org/][LaTeX]] compilation loop to update and redisplay the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PDF][PDF]] file after execution of the ~org-latex-export-latex-to-latex~ command in this buffer. Here follows a list of interesting Emacs configurations: 1. [[https://git.kyleam.com/emacs.d/][Kyle Meyer's configuration]] shows the working environment of an Emacs and Org developer. 2. [[https://github.com/alhassy/emacs.d][Musa Al-hassy's configuration]] is an impressive example of producing the Emacs initialization files and other files by tangling an [[info:org#Top][org]] file. His methodology is impressive, as his [[https://alhassy.github.io/ElispCheatSheet/][Elisp Cheat Sheet]] and [[https://alhassy.github.io/org-special-block-extras/][org-special-block-extra package]] show. To me, this is a configuration to admire, but his methodology is way over my head. 3. [[https://github.com/oantolin/emacs-config][Omar Antolin Camarena's configuration]] exploits built-in packages, Omar's own small packages, and large external packages. Omar is the author of [[https://github.com/oantolin/orderless][orderless]] and [[https://github.com/oantolin/embark][embark]]. My use =setopt= to set Emacs options instead of the customize interface comes from his idea of using =custom-set-variables= although that idea is [[https://www.masteringemacs.org/article/bad-emacs-advice][bad Emacs advice]] for new users. 4. [[https://gitlab.com/ambrevar/dotfiles][Pierre Neirhardt's configuration]] implements lazy loading without help of external packages. I have stolen his approach of using lazy loading to silently ignore the setup stanzas of uninstalled extension packages. 5. [[https://sachachua.com/dotemacs/][Sacha Chua's configuration]] is a practical example of producing the Emacs initialization files by tangling an [[info:org#Top][org]] file. It gives me the impression that she is a practical person trying to achieve her goals by the most efficient means. 6. [[https://github.com/purcell/emacs.d][Steve Purcell's configuration]] is well organized and a showcase of readable code. Its commit and issue histories are also helpful: see for instance the discussion [[https://github.com/purcell/emacs.d/issues/778][The order of company candidates is incorrect in Emacs lisp mode]]. Here follows a list of links on how to use Emacs and Elisp: 1. [[https://www.masteringemacs.org/][Mastering Emacs]] is a link to a blog with interesting posts that promotes a book on how to become a proficient Emacs user. 2. [[https://www2.lib.uchicago.edu/keith/emacs/][Use GNU Emacs: The Plain Text Computing Environment]] explains the fundamentals of the Emacs abstractions before showing how to exploit those abstractions interactively. It targets a similar audience as the [[https://www.masteringemacs.org/][Mastering Emacs]] book. 3. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lkIicfzPBys][A guided tour of Emacs]] is a link to a video tour pointing how [[info:emacs#Buffers][buffers (info)]], [[info:emacs#Dired][dired (info)]], [[info:emacs#Help][documentation (info)]], [[info:elisp#Top][elisp (info)]], [[info:elisp#Debugging][elisp debugging (info)]], [[info:eshell#Top][eshell (info)]], and [[info:emacs#Keyboard Macros][keyboard macros (info)]] turn Emacs in an powerful coding and editing environment. 4.

See the [[https://protesilaos.com/codelog/2020-09-05-emacs-note-mixed-font-heights/][note on mixed font heights in Emacs]] for how to setup fonts properly. It boils down to two rules: 1. The height of the default face must be an integer number to make the height a physical quantity. 2. The heights of all other faces must be real numbers to scale those heights with respect to the height of the face (those heights default to 1.0 for no scaling). The code in listing [[lst:configure-face-attributes]] implements those rules. Listing [[lst:set-default-face-height]] shows that font scaling is easy in case of proper initialization of all face heights. To adjust the font size in the current or future frames, invoke src_emacs-lisp{(set-default-face-height)}. To adjust the font size in the current buffer, type: 1. {{{kbd(s-=)}}} to invoke src_emacs-lisp[:results silent]{(text-scale-adjust +1)}. 2. {{{kbd(s--)}}} to invoke src_emacs-lisp[:results silent]{(text-scale-adjust -1)}. 3. {{{kbd(s-0)}}} to invoke src_emacs-lisp[:results silent]{(text-scale-adjust 0)}. Listing [[lst:fix-gtk-color-for-invert-default-face]], [[lst:shadow-org-font-lock-faces]], and [[lst:shadow-emacs-font-lock-faces]] show a tweaks to improve visibility without theming: 1. Fixing the =gtk= background color of the already loaded =region= face. 2. Toggling between a dark and light background by means of src_emacs-lisp{(invert-default-face)}. 3. Shadowing the definition of faces before loading. The last item in the page on [[https://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/babel/examples/fontify-src-code-blocks.html#org5c4406f][fontifying Org mode source code blocks]] describes this method. Listing [[lst:use-buffer-face-mode-for-fixed-or-variable-pitch-face]] contains functions to set a fixed or variable pitch face in the current buffer and selects a fixed pitch face for =magit-mode= and =progmode= buffers. #+caption[Configure =face-attributes=]: #+caption: Configure =face-attributes=. #+name: lst:configure-face-attributes #+begin_src emacs-lisp -n :results silent (with-eval-after-load 'emacs ;; Set face attributes.

It is an alternative to =minted= in case of LaTeX export or to =htmlized= in case of HTML export. The listings below work around one issue with spacing in the =pdf= output resulting from use of the =engraved= source block back-end during =LaTeX= export. They increase the quality of the export results of this [[file:README.org][README.org]] and the user-friendliness of this facility to a level acceptable for my workflow: 1. The default Org export configuration for engraving listings produces =pdf= output with a non-equidistant interline spacing in floating listings (those with captions) and equidistant interline spacing in non-floating =tcolorbox= environments (those without captions). I have traced the non-equidistant interline spacing back to the =breakable= option of =Code= environments inside =listing= environments. However, =tcolorbox= requires =breakable= for listings that do not fit on a page. The filter =org-latex-engraved-source-block-filter= in listing [[lst:org-latex-engraved-source-block-filter]] and the =org-latex-engraved-preamble= customization in listing [[lst:smart-latex-engrave-org-source-blocks]] allow to engrave =org-mode= source blocks to "floating unbreakable with caption" or "non-floating breakable without caption" LaTeX environments. This is a partial work-around, but part of my workflow. 2.

Listing [[lst:org-babel-latex-header-blocks]] implements this way by means of two new [[info:org#Editing Source Code][-modes]]: =latex-header= and =latex-extra-header=. The old way is to define two Org Babel languages (=latex-extra-header= and =latex-header=) as done in Listing [[lst:org-babel-latex-header-blocks]]. The historic way is to use a special export attribute as in the function =org-latex-header-blocks-filter= in [[https://git.sr.ht/~bzg/org-contrib/tree/master/item/lisp/ox-extra.el][ox-extra.el]]. Apparently, nobody is using this broken function (broken, since it relies on support only in org-mode before =2014-11-11=). Listing [[lst:org-latex-header-blocks-filter]] proposes a fix for =org-latex-header-blocks-filter=. This setup keeps the deprecated ways for backwards compatibility. A practical difference is that new way source blocks (contrary to old way export blocks) do not work in [[info:org#Export Settings][#+SETUPFILE: ]], but only in [[info:org#Export Settings][#+INCLUDE: ]] files. #+caption[New =-modes= to edit the LaTeX preamble easily]: #+caption: Add =latex-header= and =latex-extra-header= language modes to edit #+caption: LaTeX preamble =latex_header= and =latex_extra_header= export options #+caption: easily. #+name: lst:org-babel-latex-header-blocks #+begin_src emacs-lisp -n :exports code :results silent (with-eval-after-load 'emacs (defun prefix-all-lines (prefix body) (with-temp-buffer (insert body) (string-insert-rectangle (point-min) (point-max) prefix) (buffer-string))) (defun org-babel-execute:latex-extra-header (body _params) "Execute a block of LaTeX extra header lines with org-babel.

The [[https://github.com/pyenv/pyenv][pyenv]] package provides support to work with [[https://github.com/pyenv/pyenv#readme][pyenv]] (eventually with [[https://github.com/pyenv/pyenv-virtualenv#readme][pyenv-virtualenv]]) to select between different python versions (eventually each with different environments). In the end, all those packages do is to set =python-shell-virtualenv-root= (in case of [[https://github.com/pyenv/pyenv#readme][pyenv]] and [[https://github.com/pythonic-emacs/pythonic#readme][pythonic]]) or tweak the environment variables and restart the relevant Python child processes (in case of [[https://github.com/jorgenschaefer/pyvenv#readme][pyvenv]]).

I use [[https://github.com/Fuco1/smartparens][smartparens]] which offers a normal mode (=smartparens-mode=) and a strict mode (=smartparens-strict-mode=). Although both modes insert character pairs, the normal mode allows to delete one of the paired characters easily while the strict mode does not. Therefore, the strict mode is more for code editing since it never breaks programming language rules and the normal mode is more for text editing where structure is a matter of convention instead of programming language rules. For instance, the strict mode in Python allows to delete entire lists, tuples, or the arguments after the cursor (what Emacs calls =point=) in a function call without breaking the character pair balance. In order to repair a broken character pair balance, insert a single character by prefixing it with "C-q" bound to =quoted-insert=. The [[https://smartparens.readthedocs.io/en/latest/index.html][smartparens documentation]] targets experienced Emacs users. The following links show how to put the documentation to practical use: 1. The [[https://gist.github.com/pvik/8eb5755cc34da0226e3fc23a320a3c95][smartparens cheatsheet]] demonstrates its usage visually. 2. [[https://gist.github.com/oantolin][Omar Antolin's gist "my-smartparens-config.el"]] is the first place to look for how to tweak [[https://github.com/Fuco1/smartparens][smartparens]]. However, the gist may be partially obsolete, since it is not part of his current [[https://github.com/oantolin/emacs-config][Emacs configuration]]. 3. [[https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-gnu-emacs/2014-07/msg00135.html][How to enable smartparens in the minibuffer after eval-expression]] explains how the machinery after the first and after later usages of =eval-expression= differ and discusses options how to handle those differences. Listing [[lst:configure-smartparens]] aims to configure [[https://github.com/Fuco1/smartparens][smartparens]] for Go, LaTeX, Lisp dialects, Org, and Python. Execute src_emacs-lisp[:results silent]{(sp-cheat-sheet)} for short documentation taking into account the overridden key bindings in listing [[lst:configure-smartparens]]. Table [[tab:smartparens-commands-and-bindings]] lists commands with key bindings taken in order from src_emacs-lisp[:results silent]{(sp-cheat-sheet)} that takes the overrides of listing [[lst:configure-smartparens]] into account. Despite the provocative post [[https://andreyorst.gitlab.io/posts/2022-02-20-what-if-structural-editing-was-a-mistake/]["What if structural editing was a mistake?"]], [[https://github.com/Fuco1/smartparens][smartparens]] is one of my favorite packages. In particular, [[https://github.com/Fuco1/smartparens][smartparens]] handles matching pairs in Org-mode files with export and source blocks for multiple formats and languages almost (exceptions are due to ~Search failed~ errors inside source blocks) correctly. Therefore, [[https://smartparens.readthedocs.io/en/latest/index.html?highlight=show-smartparens-mode#getting-started][show-smartparens-mode]] highlights matching pairs immediately in front or after point in such files correctly, contrary to for instance [[https://github.com/Fanael/rainbow-delimiters#readme][rainbow-delimiters]]. #+caption[Configure =smartparens=]: #+caption: Configure =smartparens=. #+name: lst:configure-smartparens #+begin_src emacs-lisp -n :results silent (when (and (ensure-package-installation 'smartparens) ;; Require `smartparens-config' instead of `smartparens' to ;; disable pairing of the quote character for lisp modes.

The [[https://elpa.gnu.org/elpa/hyperbole.html][GNU ELPA Hyperbole]] and [[https://elpa.gnu.org/devel/hyperbole.html][GNU ELPA Hyperbole developer]] packages ship their own =hyperbole-autoloads= and =kotl-autoloads= files which are incompatible with Emacs Lisp packages from "package archives". Consequently, Emacs can neither autoload nor load the =hyperbole-autoloads= and =kotl-autoloads= files. Therefore, the predicate loading the =kotl-autoloads= file in the first =unless= form of listing [[lst:ensure-hyperbole-installation][ensure Hyperbole installation]] will fail and the body of this form will overwrite the =hyperbole-autoloads= file to fix =load-path= *and* load the =hyperbole-autoloads= and =kotl-autoloads= files. A next time, Emacs will be able to autoload the new =hyperbole-autoloads= file but not the =kotl-autoloads= file. However, Emacs will now be able to load the =kotl-autoloads= file which the predicate in the first =unless= form of listing [[lst:ensure-hyperbole-installation][ensure Hyperbole installation]] does. 2. [[https://www.gnu.org/software/hyperbole/][GNU Hyperbole]] and [[info:vertico#Top][Vertico (info)]] do not play well together, since the =vertico-mode= preselection of the first candidate out of the full candidate completion list interferes with =hyperbole-mode= expectations where it must handle a full candidate list.
