This org file is my literate configuration for GNU Emacs, and is
-tangled to [[./init.el][init.el]]. Packages are installed and managed using
-[[https://github.com/emacscollective/borg][Borg]]. Over the years, I've taken inspiration from configurations of
-many different people. Some of the configurations that I can remember
-off the top of my head are:
+tangled to [[./init.el][init.el]]. Packages are installed and managed using
+[[https://github.com/raxod502/straight.el][straight.el]]. Over the years, I've taken inspiration from
+configurations of many different people. Some of the configurations
+that I can remember off the top of my head are:
- [[https://github.com/dieggsy/dotfiles][dieggsy/dotfiles]]: literate Emacs and dotfiles configuration, uses
straight.el for managing packages
I'd like to have a fully reproducible Emacs setup (part of the reason
why I store my configuration in this repository) but unfortunately out
of the box, that's not achievable with =package.el=, not currently
-anyway. So, I've opted to use Borg. For what it's worth, I briefly
-experimented with [[https://github.com/raxod502/straight.el][straight.el]], but found that it added about 2 seconds
-to my init time; which is unacceptable for me: I use Emacs as my
-window manager (via EXWM) and coming from bspwm, I'm too used to
-having fast startup times.
+anyway. So, I've opted to use =straight.el=. I also used Borg for a
+few months, but decided to try =straight.el= which allows direct use
+of the various package archives.
** Installation
To use this config for your Emacs, first you need to clone this repo,
-then bootstrap Borg, tell Borg to retrieve package submodules, and
-byte-compiled the packages. Something along these lines should work:
+then tangle =init.org= into =init.el=, and optionally byte-compile
+=init.el=.
+
+First, clone the repository and =cd= into it:
#+begin_src sh :tangle no
-git clone https://github.com/aminb/dotfiles ~/.emacs.d
+git clone https://git.sr.ht/~bandali/dotfiles ~/.emacs.d
cd ~/.emacs.d
-make bootstrap-borg
-make bootstrap
-make build
#+end_src
+Then, decide if you would like to use a byte-compiled init file, and
+set the following variable accordingly:
+
+#+begin_src emacs-lisp
+(defvar a/byte-compiled-init t
+ "If non-nil, byte-(re)compile init.el on successful tangles.")
+#+end_src
+
+Now, first tangle =init.org=, and only if you chose to have a
+byte-compiled init, build init as well:
+
+#+begin_src sh :tangle no
+make tangle-init
+make build-init
+#+end_src
+
+If you'd like to use a byte-compiled init, it's important that it be
+recompiled whenever =init.el= is generated from an updated =init.org=.
+Not only does my setup automatically and asynchronously tangle
+=init.org= to =init.el= every time you edit and save =init.org= in GNU
+Emacs, it will also invoke =make build-init= if you set
+=a/byte-compiled-init= to =t= above, so you wouldn't have to worry
+about manually tangling and compiling your init file whenever you
+change it. The output of the last byte-compilation in the current
+session is kept in a =*compilation*= buffer, which will automatically
+be displayed if compilation fails.
