Blog Post My Must Emacs Functions
https://ismailefe.org/blog/emacs\_functions/ I wrote a blog post about the Emacs functions I use every day. It might be common knowledge for most people here, but I think there may be some inspiration that can be taken.

company-reftex, but choosing citation and reference macros to insert à la reftex
I use both RefTeX and company-reftex for latex documents. For choosing the bibliographic reference, I much prefer company-reftex. But I like how C-c ] (reftex-citation) allows choosing from a list of citation formats (ditto for reftex-reference). The problem is that reftex-citation takes you to RefTeX's mechanism for choosing the bibliographic reference, which is not company-reftex.
So I am now doing this:
;; From my reftex-cite-format; for real, this is a longer list
(defvar my-cite-options
'("\\cite{}" "\\citep{}" "\\citealp{}" "\\citepp.~{}"))
(defun my-cite-menu ()
"Insert citation based on user choice."
(interactive)
(insert (completing-read "Choose citation type: " my-cite-options))
(backward-char)
(company-complete))
;; Preserve muscle memory
(bind-key (kbd "C-c ") 'my-cite-menu reftex-mode-map)
(Same comments apply to `reftex-reference`, where I reuse my `reftex-ref-style-alist`, and create a `my-reference-menu`).
This seems to me like the obvious solution because: a) it preserves muscle memory; b) I can reuse my lists of citation options and reference styles, and if I wanted to go back to a pure-reftex solution it would be simple; c) I can continue easily choosing structure; d) I use company-reftex; e) it seems simple enough.
But I have not found anything similar when searching for it. I wonder if I am doing something silly, or reinventing a wheel (and ending up with a square wheel as a result, given my elisp ignorance).

Grammarly in Emacs
What are the options for using Grammarly in Emacs? I was testing lsp-grammarly but was not able to set it up properly. And now I'm testing flyckeck Grammarly, it is better but the explanation of the issue with text is not helpful. My English is not perfect and I have problems understanding what to do to fix the grammar mistakes. Example:
>The noun phrase first element seems to be missing a determiner before it. Consider adding an article.
I don't understand what this hint suggests. The browser extension has a suggestion that you can click to fix the grammar mistakes. Does any Emacs mode have something similar? I thought that lsp mode use company mode to allow fixing grammar mistakes from dropdown menu, but I was told that the company mode only works with completion and doesn't work with lsp-grammarly.
I can fix mistakes by hand, but I need to have a list of fixes to apply. lsp-grammarly had even more cryptic hints "Correct article usage". Those are only in browser extension but there is a proper grammar listed that I can apply.

Using mu4e-dashboard-mode
I am trying to use Nicholar Rougier's `mu4e-dashboard-mode` (https://github.com/rougier/mu4e-dashboard). It was quite easy to use it, except for one small issue. Suppose I am in the dashboard and click or select “Inbox”. Now when I quit “Inbox” it goes the mu4e's default (ugly) dashboard. How do I prevent that from happening and only use the dashboard from above?

Dap-Mode LLDB Debug Template for Rust
For anyone that's interested. I have a debug template that works well for me running dap-mode for debugging rust with lldb. Here's what works for me, including finding the target debug binary. I think the projectile functions could be replaced with LSP workspace variables/functions but this works for so I haven't tried.
(add-hook 'rustic-mode-hook (lambda ()
(dap-register-debug-template "Rust LLDB Debug Configuration"
(list :type "lldb-mi" ;; Make sure the path to lldb-mi is in your path
:request "launch"

:MIMode "lldb"
:target (concat (projectile-project-root) "target/debug/" (projectile-project-name)) ;; Requires that the rust project is a project in projectile

Exploring completion-at-point-functions and treesit
I have been using go templ and htmx to write web server for a while. There is a templ-ts-mode for Emacs user to use. But the functionalities are so limited that it does not have HTML keyword completion. I tried to integrate web-mode or html-mode into it but no success. Both the source code of web-mode and html-mode are so complicated that I don't even know where to find the auto-completion related functions.
So I decided to do it my own way, with the help of built-in treesit, it was a fun and successful experience. I recommend more of you try out the treesit related stuffs.
Here is my blog post about it.

Emacs Doom Org Mode Python Execution Issue
Hello, I've been using Emacs Doom on my MacBook Air M1 for a year. Since I reset it and reinstalled everything, I've been facing an issue when I execute src bloc code in Org Mode (c-c c-c).
I have a virtual environment (venv) with the correct Python modules installed in my environment. When I try to execute a scraping code, for example, I get this error as output:
PYTHONELeval("try:\n with open ...
Does anyone know how to resolve this issue? Thank you!
PS: When I use Org Mode source code blocks with basic Python modules, I don't encounter any issues.

Use org tables with custom elisp functions
Just wanted to show you how to use org tables with custom elisp functions, in case you dont know its possible:
The following table shows results from a questionnaire:
#+name: sus-questionnaire-results
#+caption: SUS Questionnaire Results
#+attr_latex: :align l|r|r|r|r|r|r|r|r|r|r|l :font \fontspec{Noto Sans Condensed Light}
| USER | Q1 | Q2 | Q3 | Q4 | Q5 | Q6 | Q7 | Q8 | Q9 | Q10 | SUS |
|------+----+----+----+----+----+----+----+----+----+-----+------|
| U1 | 5 | 2 | 2 | 1 | 3 | 4 | 3 | 2 | 1 | 1 | 60.0 |
| U2 | 5 | 2 | 4 | 2 | 5 | 1 | 4 | 1 | 4 | 1 | 87.5 |
| U3 | 5 | 2 | 4 | 1 | 4 | 2 | 4 | 1 | 4 | 3 | 80.0 |
#+tblfm: $12='(ux:sus-calc-score-per-row '($2..$11));N
The SUS column is calculated for each row using the values from column 2 to 11. When the ‘N’ flag is used, all referenced elements are parsed as numbers and interpolated as Lisp numbers
Here is the elisp function:
(defun ux:sus-calc-score (lst)
(let ((counter 0))
(mapcar (lambda (x)
(setq counter (1+ counter))
(if (= 0 (% counter 2))
(- 5 x)
(1- x)))
lst)))
(defun ux:sus-calc-score-per-row (lst)
(* (apply '+ (ux:sus-calc-score lst)) 2.5))
Thats all!

C-x s with / in org-mode
Hi 👋
I've always had this problem and I want to see if someone can please help me: I have the following code in my config:
;; Update Emacs automatically with disk changes
(setq global-auto-revert-mode t)
(setq global-auto-revert-non-file-buffers t)
;; Set backup directory for files
(setq backup-directory-alist \(("." . ,(expand-file-name "backups/" user-emacs-directory))))
;; Set auto-saves directory for buffers
(make-directory (expand-file-name "auto-saves/" user-emacs-directory) t)
(setq auto-save-visited-file-name t)
(setq make-backup-files t)
(setq backup-inhibited nil)
(setq auto-save-list-file-prefix (expand-file-name "auto-saves/sessions" user-emacs-directory) auto-save-file-name-transforms \((".*" ,(expand-file-name "auto-saves/" user-emacs-directory) t)))
;; Disable lock files - enable if they cause trouble while compiling
;; (setq create-lockfiles nil)
;; Set directory for temp projectile and lsp files
(setq projectile-known-projects-file (expand-file-name "tmp/projectile-bookmarks.eld" user-emacs-directory) lsp-session-file (expand-file-name "tmp/.lsp-session.v1" user-emacs-directory))
;; Make backups to backup directory
(setq
backup-by-copying t
delete-old-versions t
kept-new-versions 6
kept-old-versions 2
version-control t)
It creates #(https://filename.org)# files as backups in the directory, which is really nice. But, if I have a [/\] in an org header (a progress thing for a checklist), it continually asks upon hitting `C-x s` if I want to save the file. If I quit out of Emacs with `C-x C-c`, then it will not only ask, but also say that some buffers are modified, and do I want to really quit? I find this behavior to be a little weird. I'm just looking to see if anyone can help me make it so that backups are saved/taken care of silently in the background, and when hitting `C-x s`, it doesn't prompt me to save the backup file each time. Instead, it prompts for normal (non-backup) buffers.
I don't know *why* it continually updates the backup files if I have a [/\] in the header, but it does. If anyone has any ideas, please let me know?
Thanks! 🙃

Is there anything I can do to make Eglot's completion as smooth as Neovim's lsp?
Recently, I've started using Emacs again, mainly because Emacs 29.2 has built-in eglot and treesit. I spent about a week configuring it to see if the current Emacs can achieve the smoothness of lsp code completion on par with Neovim.
My system is a MacBook Pro M1 MAX, so there should be no problem with hardware performance.
I am using emacs-plus@29 and have enabled nativecomp. Here are the parts related to lsp code completion and performance in my configuration, I did everything I can find to boost the performance but still not as fast as Neovim's lsp (via gopls and rust-analyzer).
Is there anything to improve?

[Some](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/78047832/org-mode-inline-images-display-with-insert-sliced-image/78064990) people (myself included) wanted smoother scrolling of org inline images, which can be achieved with insert-sliced-image functionality.

An inline image is a link which follows either of these
conventions:
1. Its path is a file with an extension matching return value
from `image-file-name-regexp' and it has no contents.
2. Its description consists in a single link of the previous
type. In this case, that link must be a well-formed plain
or angle link, i.e., it must have an explicit \"file\" or
\"attachment\" type.
Equip each image with the key-map `image-map'.
When optional argument INCLUDE-LINKED is non-nil, also links with
a text description part will be inlined. This can be nice for
a quick look at those images, but it does not reflect what
exported files will look like.
When optional argument REFRESH is non-nil, refresh existing
images between BEG and END. This will create new image displays
only if necessary.
BEG and END define the considered part. They default to the
buffer boundaries
Getting a handle on windows in emacs
I've been getting fairly familiar with emacs but I am still struggling with controlling the windows (i.e. the panes) in emacs. My main issue is emacs presuming to create new windows when I do not want it to. I especially want all of my regular file buffers to always open in the same window. Does anyone have suggestions for controlling your windows? Are there any really good packages or dot-files I should be looking at to solve this issue?

Nerd Font Problems - Fedora KDE
I just installed Fedora KDE and I've run into an embarrassing problem. Neither my terminal of choice (wezterm) nor Emacs can find my installation of nerd fonts. I installed them as per normal in \~/.local/share/fonts and they show up in the fonts section of the GUI appearance manager (and are completely usable in KDE). However, they can't be found by wezterm or Emacs.
Anyone had this problem before? I've never had an issue with openSUSE or Arch.
I've also installed them in /usr/share/fonts and of course ran sudo fc-cache -v.

Slightly odd font rendering in macOS
Hi, I installed emacs in macOS (emacs-plus@29) and immediately noticed that the font rendering was a bit off, slightly darker or bolder than in other apps. For example, this is Source Code Pro (Regular 15) in VSCode (above) and in emacs (below):

Does emacs use a different font rendering engine than the rest of the system?
I tried setting ns-use-thin-smoothing but found no difference in rendering.
Thanks!

Anyone using lsp-mode with ts-ls having trouble with it overwriting imports?
On Friday I updated all my lsp language servers (I use ts-ls) and all my emacs packages, and now whenever I save it's overwriting all my imports incorrectly; it's also (stupidly) adding an emacs backup file to my `tsconfig.json` file. I've been looking at the lsp-mode documentation, but I can't figure out how to disable code actions on save (and honestly, I'd rather keep that and just turn off whatever it's trying to do to the imports, but I haven't found a setting for that). I've also been looking at the configuration options on the ts-ls repo, but I'm unsure of how to set those through emacs-lsp, and couldn't find any documentation on setting server-specific settings.
Here's what it's doing:

Problem with accents in org-mode
I currently have 2 org files on the same emacs/win10 session, that behave differently: When i press an accentuated character "é" on the keyboard, the buffer on the left displays "é", the buffer on the right "\\351". This seems to be independent from whatever i set with "set-buffer-file-coding-system". Any help would be appreciated!

I'm loosing my mind over emacs buffers
A while back i made a post on a different Problem where i mentioned this as well, but i'm not able to track this down. So i'm, once again, asking for help here.
Basically, at a random point in time after starting emacs, it will create buffers named "*emacs*" in the background.
https://preview.redd.it/sy147bu3mxkc1.png?width=898&format=png&auto=webp&s=72f99a091f59e8332e2a1a067b2b2ad8eeff33ae
They seem to be somehow related to me moving through files. I have only my init.el file open and moving up and down makes new buffers appear in that list. This isn't consistent though. If i restart emacs, i can move through my init file just fine. And at some point, this just starts happening.
Some of those buffers are empty, and some have just "Lisp Expression:" with nothing else written in them.
I already tried stripping down my config and haven't been able to track it down. I ripped the whole completion setup out, threw out treemacs and such, ran without all the eglot and language modes and tried without org and evil configuration. Nothing seems to help.
Is there a hook or option i can use to get more information on how or by what those buffers are created? Maybe write a verbose log on those events or such? Although i've worked with emacs for quite some time, i seem to be pretty bad at configuring and troubleshooting it, so some hints would help me a lot here.
If someone wants to look at my config, the current state is here: Dominik Schlack / Domacs · GitLab
