It’s a new year and thumbing through the Emacs Blogger Manual I see that I’m supposed to offer a year end perspective on my Emacs use. The problem is that after more than a decade of Emacs use, my configuration is converging to a steady state. From my Git logs, I see that I made only 49 changes in 2018 and many of those were trivial bolt tightening. The rest I’ve already written about.

Still, not all is lost because Diego Vicente, who is a more recent Emacs convert, has provided an interesting year-end wrap-up of his Emacs usage. Except for the language modes, his configuration is much like mine and, probably, much like that of most developers. One exception is his blogging setup. I’ll be writing more about that later but the TL;DR is that he uses org-publish and doesn’t depend on any third-party packages.

It’s a nice overview of one Emacser’s configuration and Emacs workflow. If, like me, you enjoy reading this sort of thing, head on over to the link and take a look. You might even get some ideas for your own configuration.
