mpereira’s Emacs configuration

This is my vanilla, Evil, Emacs configuration. It enables most of my computing needs, since most of the time I’m on a computer I’m on Emacs.

I just made the switch from a literate configuration to a simple init.el. Check out my configuration there. Maybe I’ll go back to a literate configuration at some point.

It can be found at https://github.com/mpereira/.emacs.d.

I wouldn’t recommend others to use this configuration as-is. I’m sure there are sections, snippets, or settings that might be interesting, though.

If you’d like to know more about my relationship with Emacs, check out this thing I wrote: How to open a file in Emacs: a short story about Lisp, technology, and human progress.

One day I’ll include some screenshots here.

Installing Emacs

These days I almost exclusively use GUI Emacs on macOS. I install the excellent homebrew-emacs-head package created by Davide Restivo:

brew install emacs-head@30 \
     --with-cocoa \
     --with-crash-debug \
     --with-imagemagick \
     --with-modern-icon-pen \
     --with-native-comp \
     --with-no-frame-refocus \
     --with-pdumper \
     --with-tree-sitter \
     --with-xwidgets
