Emacs: intro to ICOMPLETE
Raw link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vtwYIKUZwEM
In this video tutorial I present the icomplete
library that is built
into Emacs. This is an incremental completion framework that offers
live feedback on the candidates that match your current input.
I have been using Icomplete for a bit less than a month and have made
lots of customisations to it and other parts of the interface (such as
display-buffer-alist
). The result has proven good enough for me to
switch away from the Ivy completion framework (which I had also
configured quite extensively).
Icomplete is simple by design: take it as an opportunity to experiment and to find your own solutions to problems that involve elisp scripting.
See my dotemacs for the actual implementation.
