The Emacs Evil Tutor

LESSON 1

The cursor is moved using either the arrow keys or the hjkl keys. h (left) j (down) k (up) l (right)
To exit Emacs type: :qa! to trash all changes. OR type: :wqa to save the changes.
Ctrl + f Page Down Ctrl + b Page Up
0 Cursor to the beginging of the line $ Cursor to the end of the line
G Cursor to the last of the file nG Cursor to the n line of the file gg Cursor to the begin of the file, like 1G :[Enter] followed by a line number and moves to that line number. N[Enter] Curosr to the N line

NOTE: Pressing will place you in normal state or will cancel an unwanted and partially completed command.

LESSON 2

x/X To delete a character under/before the cursor in normal state type
To delete a whole line type: dd
The format for a command in normal state is:

[number] command object OR command [number] object where: number - is how many times to repeat the command command - is what to do, such as d for delete object - is what the command should act upon, such as w for word, $ for “to the end of line”, etc.
d1G, dG, d0, d$
yy Copy the line of cursokr nyy Copy the n line data
y1G, yG, y0, y$
p/P Paste the data from the next/before line
To undo previous actions, type: u To undo the undo’s type: CTRL-R Repeat the last opeartion: .

LESSON 3

To replace text that has already been deleted, type p this puts the deleted text AFTER the cursor (if a line was deleted it will go on the line below the cursor).
To replace the character under the cursor, type r and then the character which will replace the original.
The change command allows you to change the specified object from the cursor to the end of the object. eg. Type cw to change from the cursor to the end of the word, c$ to change to the end of a line.
The format for change is: [number] c object OR c [number] object

LESSON 4

Typing / followed by a phrase searches FORWARD for the phrase. Typing ? followed by a phrase searches BACKWARD for the phrase. After a search type n to find the next occurrence in the same direction or N to search in the opposite direction.
Typing % while the cursor is on a (,),[,],{, or } locates its matching pair.
To substitute new for the first old on a line type :s/old/new To substitute new for all ‘old’s on a line type :s/old/new/g To substitute phrases between two line #’s type :#,#s/old/new/g To substitute all occurrences in the file type :%s/old/new/g To ask for confirmation each time add ‘c’ :%s/old/new/gc

LESSON 5

:!command executes an external command.

Some useful examples are: :!ls or :!dir - shows a directory listing. :!rm or :!del FILENAME - removes file FILENAME.
:w FILENAME writes the current buffer to disk with file name FILENAME.
:#,#w FILENAME saves the lines # through # in file FILENAME.
:r FILENAME retrieves disk file FILENAME and inserts it into the current buffer following the cursor position.

LESSON 6

Typing o opens a line BELOW the cursor and places the cursor on the open line in insert state. Typing a capital O opens the line ABOVE the line the cursor is on.
Type an a to insert text AFTER the character the cursor is on. Typing a capital A automatically appends text to the end of the line.
i/I Insert text at the character/Not blank

Spacemacs Rocks

Spacemacs Rocks Season 2 ( Day one)

Install Emacs

Mac
Windows
Linux(apt get install emacs)

Go over the Emacs tutorial at least once

C-h t to open the tutorial.
You need be familiar with cursor movement(C-f/C-b/C-n/C-p/C-a/C-e) and basic editing (C-k)
You should be familiar with M(eta), s(uper, command key), S(hift), C(trl) M-x s-p S-p C-p
Prefix key(c-h is a prefix key) and C-g (C-x c-f)

Learn to active some built-in functionality (org-mode)

linum-mode to display line numbers (M-x linum-mode)
C-x C-f(find/file) to open files, C-x C-s(ave) to save files. (You could also use your mouse to do all the file operations.)
you should always ask Emacs the right question
C-h k/ C-h v / C-h f (Emacs is a self document, extensiable editor.)
The key bindings are actually a quick way to command Emacs.

Learn some elisp(emacs lisp)

use learnxinyminutes website to learn emacs lisp.
at least you know how to define variable, functions
You should know how to make a function callable and how to set a key binding for the function.

Start to hacking Emacs from the day one!

turn off tool-bar
turn off scroll-bar
show linum-mode
turn off splash screen
save your config
define a function to quickly open your config file.

Emacs package system in the first glance.

How to use the built-in Package system of Emacs.
Install company mode and active it.

Add this to Dired mode, ibuffer mode?

Which key

Design your own key bindings

Use SPC as the leader key
Use comma as the major mode leader key
Use SPC : to list all available commands
Use which key to group key bindings
Yeah! You got a minimal Spacemacs!

(setq my-var 1)

Write macro is almost the same as writing function in elisp.

What’s the different betwwen function and macro?

Evaluation: the macro arguments are the actual expressions appearing in the macro call.

Expansion: the value returned by the macro body is an alternate Lisp expression, also known as the expansion of the macro

examples:

back quote matters.

How company-mode works?

backend for the completion sources and front end to display the candidates
C-h v company-backends
try company-file and company-ispell, M-x
C-h C-f to view the backend implementation

Why my company sucks?

Python anaconda-mode not works
some backend require build with a server-client architecture: company-anaconda, company-jedi, company-ycmd, company-tern etc
At first, you should make sure the server side is working properly and then you want to make sure you use the right backend
