A simple, modular and well organized Emacs configuration.

This is the Emacs configuration I use and tweak every day. This may probably be a good starting point for people trying to learn Emacs, specially if you do ELisp and Ruby development. There is also some simple stuff for Jekyll and blogging.

The modularization is a good example of how to keep your init files clean and sane.

Requirements

• Emacs24.3 or greater.

Installation

To install, clone this repo to and run ./setup_dotfiles. This will create symbolic links from the repository to the ~/.emacs.d/ directory.

git clone https://github.com/rranelli/emacs-dotfiles/ && ./emacs-dotfiles/setup_dotfiles

Other very nice configurations

I have started using Emacs with emacs-starter-kit, but Emacs Prelude and Purcell’s emacs.d are also good choices. If you’re a (hopefully former) vim user, you should take a look at spacemacs.
