Anyone out there using lispy? How do you unwrap parenthesis like say from '(:a :b :c)
to (:a :b :c)
?
Nevermind. Just pressing x
over the paren does it.
If any of you uses book Clojure, The Essential Reference (comprehensive documentation for the Core Lib), I made a small package to quickly jump to documentation of symbol from Emacs
Hi, I've been trying to follow the installation instructions on Brave Clojure https://www.braveclojure.com/basic-emacs/ (on mac osx) and I can't get past the step 3 part "Run mv path/to/emacs-for-clojure-book1 ~/.emacs.d." These are probably stupid questions but I can't figure it out... I run the "mv path..." in terminal? It says No such file or directory wherever i run it. I've manually searched for the file path but I don't see it. Any suggestions? Is there a video of someone doing this?
@andrew365 if you do not wish to learn Emacs there are other editors tha support Clojure very well. The Calva plugin for VSCode is excellent. Clojure aware editors I recommend https://practicalli.github.io/clojure/development-tools/
yes, using the terminal.
you'll want to replace the "path/to/" part with the actual location of the file you downloaded. most likely it is in your Downloads folder, so the command you run might look similar to this:
mv ~/Downloads/emacs-for-clojure-book1 ~/.emacs.d
thanks @agile-cactus! Far and away the hardest part of learning clojure for me has been stuff like this. Is there something I can check to confirm it worked?
I entered it into terminal I think correctly. I tried the next step C-x C-f in emacs to Navigate to ~/.emacs.d/customizations/ui.el, but I don't see a line 37 on there to edit. That file looks blank to me in my emacs
I would not recommend using the Emacs configuration in Brave Clojure, it is very out of date, lacking in features and seems to be unmaintained. I suggest using one of the following Emacs configurations instead: http://spacemacs.org https://github.com/hlissner/doom-emacs https://github.com/bbatsov/prelude
Choose Spacemacs or Doom Emacs if you want to use Vim style editing. Or prelude if you prefer classic Emacs.
I do recommend Spacemacs and have a book on how to use it for Clojure development. It can also be set up with 2 git clone commands https://practicalli.github.io/spacemacs/
