I used emacs for a very long time, and eLisp has a special place in my heart; however, at most places I've worked they've used vi. At least it was better than nano. The problem was always that it was a very minimal vi, not vim, so...yeah, that. The real power of using emacs comes in learning and using eLisp to extend it to do whatever you need. Same with vi? Well, not really. With vim? Yes. When you trick it out, it's usable, too. The editor wars ended over a generation ago, but it doesn't hurt to know how to drive a manual transmission as well as an automatic. To which am I referring? That's up to you to choose. 😊 Great video!!
Thanks Gavin! Good explanations, appreciate the way you marked off sections so I could jump around. As a suggestion, would like more on Emacs Lisp that has to do with how it integrates with the Emacs environment. You touched on that this time with a) user functions that make use of the help system, b) hooks and c) modes. So thanks for that. My own top-of-mind thing is trying to add completion to a extant package that does not have this feature. But I bump into my own deficiency in this "integration" area frequently, so something more general welcome as well. But again, thanks for all you do!
thanks for the cool video :) i've been getting into emacs buffer programming recently, and i've started to feel more at home doing it. one thing i find overwhelming about emacs (and about common lisp) is the wealth of functions and macros. i imagine you could learn one new macro or function a day for many years :)
A lot of the "new" emacs lisp stuff was new to me! thanks for sharing your setup and knowledge! Very beautiful setup! I'm curious to check out your dot files more and see what else I can learn :)
I think part of it comes down to the rendering frame rate missing some of my cursor movement and the rest comes from the excessive amount of cuts needed to trim this down to 30 minutes. Most of it is from the rendering unfortunately. I should really find the time to figure this out once and for all.

Great video!!
the editor wars still exist in my heart
I really love it, I am reading "eintr" too.

well done man! 👍 One great feature I missed in this video was ‘add-advice’
Oh ya advice would have been worth covering. I'll add a mention of it in a future video.
Excellent refresher on EmacsLisp, thank you!
Glad it was helpful!

thank you, I guess I will learn right now
Great video. Thanks for this, it really help me.
thank you so much for this video. next I need buffer manipulation with emacs-lisp
It's a topic I would love to dig into. My advent of code in emacs lisp video makes use of this but not too much
Great video! And 10x10 is definitely 1000 😉 22:52
1000% correct can confirm
ero-mode ... highly recommend. Evaluations show up right next to the evaluated form, rather than in the mini-buffer. yw! ^_^
Thanks for recommending it. Sounds like it would be good to have for some of these demos.
Hi! Thanks for such a great video! Would you mind sharing the notes you used in the video pls?
I have added them to the description gist.github.com/Gavinok/5780b195c777b5ffa4842eebebdf13f7
Nice info, but why is the computer screen so spastic? jumpy cursor, jumpy highlighting and flickering blocks.
I think part of it comes down to the rendering frame rate missing some of my cursor movement and the rest comes from the excessive amount of cuts needed to trim this down to 30 minutes. Most of it is from the rendering unfortunately. I should really find the time to figure this out once and for all.
waiting for follow up video
very rare person proficient in both vim/nvim and emacs
Big respect for the dedication to keep the lisp/emacs community growing. I myself find enjoying writing elisp for some reason and I dont get why.
I think the workflow is just too addictive. I find myself constantly making progress and able to write fairly complex ideas rather quickly
Thank you, creepy floating head!
What is the point in learning lisp in 2024? Any idea?
It’s fun and useful..?
@@copperspartan1643 how is it useful

Alternating between dark background and burning white background: really bad idea. I closed the video immediately because it's just unbearable.
You can also set `(setq use-package-always-ensure t)` so that you don't have to put `:ensure t` in your `use-package` forms
Adding lambdas to hooks is bad form.
Laughs in Vim
Laughs in evil
Bruh talks to fast I thought I had the video on 1.5x speed
No.
