;;; My humble Emacs (28.0.50v) configuration -*- lexical-binding:t -*-
;; Last update: 2021-06-13
;;
;; This file is more verbose than my actual config. For real thing
;; clone repository with "git clone git://irek.xyz/emacs".
;;
;; For full documentation of variable or function use help commands:
;; "C-h v" (`describe-variable') and "C-h f" (`describe-function').
;;
;; Place cursor after closing bracket of `info' function and press
;; "C-x C-e" to open Info page. To close it press "q". Examples:
;;
;; (info "(elisp) Comment Tips") ; Read those Info pages to
;; (info "(emacs) Pages) ; understand config better
;;; Why not org-mode config?
;;
;; I've started with few big config files maintained with org-mode in
;; spirit of literate programming. As I got to know Emacs better I
;; have began to reduce init file realizing that instead of another
;; package I can use other workflow or functionality that is build in.
;;
;; My knowledge of help commands grew so the need for writing headings
;; and descriptions become unnecessary. I don't share config between
;; different computers so that makes it simpler too.
;;
;; After few years I ended up with short single elisp file.
;;; early-init.el (info "(emacs) Early Init File")
(menu-bar-mode -1) ; Maybe GUI is good for discoverability and fun
(tool-bar-mode -1) ; to play around but to me it's useless. Early
(scroll-bar-mode -1) ; Init is good place to disable all of that.
;; Defining path to file in this variable will force Emacs "Easy
;; Customization Interface" to use given file for auto generated code
;; instead of your main init config.
