Quickstart: Configure an extended Latin font for your default face, such as Monaco, Consolas, or DejaVu Sans Mono. Install these fonts https://dn-works.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/UFAS-Fonts/Symbola.zip http://www.quivira-font.com/files/Quivira.ttf ; or Quivira.otf http://sourceforge.net/projects/dejavu/files/dejavu/2.37/dejavu-fonts-ttf-2.37.tar.bz2 https://github.com/googlei18n/noto-fonts/raw/master/hinted/NotoSans-Regular.ttf https://github.com/googlei18n/noto-fonts/raw/master/unhinted/NotoSansSymbols-Regular.ttf Remove Unifont from your system. (require unicode-fonts) (unicode-fonts-setup) Testing: C-h h ; M-x view-hello-file M-x list-charset-chars RET unicode-bmp RET ; search for 210x M-x list-charset-chars RET unicode-smp RET ; if your backend supports astral chars M-x unicode-fonts-debug-insert-block RET Mathematical_Operators RET Explanation: Emacs maintains font mappings on a per-glyph basis, meaning that multiple fonts are used at the same time (transparently) to display any character for which you have a font. Furthermore, Emacs does this out of the box. However, font mappings via fontsets are a bit difficult to configure. In addition, the default setup does not always pick the most legible fonts. As the manual warns, the choice of font actually displayed for a non-ASCII character is "somewhat random". The Unicode standard provides a way to organize font mappings: it divides character ranges into logical groups called "blocks". This library configures Emacs in a Unicode-friendly way by providing mappings from each Unicode block ---to---> a font with good coverage and makes the settings available via the customization interface. This library provides font mappings for 233 of the 255 blocks in the Unicode 8.0 standard which are public and have displayable characters. It assumes that 6 Latin blocks are covered by the default font. 16/255 blocks are not mapped to any known font. To use unicode-fonts, place the unicode-fonts.el file somewhere Emacs can find it, and add the following to your ~/.emacs file: (require unicode-fonts) (unicode-fonts-setup) See important notes about startup speed below. To gain any benefit from the library, you must have fonts with good Unicode support installed on your system. If you are running a recent version of OS X or Microsoft Windows, you already own some good multi-lingual fonts, though you would do very well to download and install the four items below: From https://dejavu-fonts.github.io/ DejaVu Sans, DejaVu Sans Mono From http://www.quivira-font.com/downloads.php Quivira From https://dn-works.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/UFAS-Fonts/Symbola.zip Symbola Many non-free fonts are referenced by the default settings. However, free alternatives are also given wherever possible, and patches are of course accepted to improve every case. On the assumption that an extended Latin font such as Monaco, Consolas, or DejaVu Sans Mono is already being used for the default face, no separate mappings are provided for the following Unicode blocks: Basic Latin Latin Extended Additional Latin Extended-A Latin Extended-B Latin-1 Supplement Spacing Modifier Letters though some of these remain configurable via `customize'. It is also recommended to remove GNU Unifont from your system. Unifont is very useful for debugging, but not useful for reading. The default options favor correctness and completeness over speed, and can add many seconds to initial startup time in GUI mode. However, when possible a font cache is kept between sessions. If you have persistent-soft.el installed, when you start Emacs the second time, the startup cost should be negligible. The disk cache will be rebuilt during Emacs startup whenever a font is added or removed, or any relevant configuration variables are changed. To increase the speed of occasionally building the disk cache, you may use the customization interface to remove fonts from `unicode-fonts-block-font-mapping which are not present on your system. If you are using a language written in Chinese or Arabic script, try customizing `unicode-fonts-skip-font-groups to control which script you see, and send a friendly bug report. Color Emoji are enabled by default when using the Native Mac port on OS X. This can be disabled by customizing each relevant mapping, or by turning off all multicolor glyphs here: M-x customize-variable RET unicode-fonts-skip-font-groups RET See Also M-x customize-group RET unicode-fonts RET M-x customize-variable RET unicode-fonts-block-font-mapping RET Notes Free fonts recognized by this package may be downloaded from the following locations.

Mathematical Symbols Compatibility and Requirements GNU Emacs version 23.3 and higher : yes GNU Emacs version 22.3 and lower : no Requires font-utils.el, ucs-utils.el Bugs The default choice of font for each code block balances coverage versus appearance. This is necessarily subjective. Unicode also defines the notion of a "script" as a higher-level abstraction which is independent of "blocks". Modern fonts can report their script coverage, and Emacs may also access that information. However, this library ignores scripts in favor of blocks and glyphs. Checking for font availability is slow. This library can add anywhere between 0.1 - 10 secs to startup time. It is slowest under X11. Some per-architecture limitations are documented in font-utils.el Calling `set-fontset-font can easily crash Emacs. There is a workaround, but it may not be sufficient on all platforms. Tested on Cocoa Emacs, Native Mac Emacs, X11/XQuartz, MS Windows XP. Glyph-by-glyph fallthrough happens differently depending on the font backend. On Cocoa Emacs, glyph-by-glyph fallthrough does not occur, and manual per-glyph overrides are required to maximize coverage. Fallthrough works on MS Windows, but not perfectly. X11/FreeType behaves most predictably. The following ranges cannot be overridden within the "fontset-default" fontset: Latin Extended Additional Latin Extended-B Spacing Modifier Letters `unicode-fonts-overrides-mapping shows some order-dependence, which must indicate a bug in this code. A number of the entries in `unicode-fonts-overrides-mapping are workarounds for the font Monaco, and therefore specific to OS X. Widths of alternate fonts do not act as expected on MS Windows. For example, DejaVu Sans Mono box-drawing characters may use a different width than the default font. TODO provide additional interfaces - dump set-fontset-font instructions - immediately set font for character/current-character/range - recommend font for current character - alternatives to customize, which can be called before unicode-fonts-setup - eg "prefer this font for this block" - also character/range ie overrides scripts vs blocks - further doc note - provide alternative interface via scripts reorganize font list by language? - break down into living/dead/invented support MUFI for PUA support ConScript for PUA Aramaic as a style of Hebrew (set-language-environment "UTF-8") ? Include all Windows 8 fonts Include all Windows 10 fonts Remove very old Microsoft entries (eg Monotype.com which was renamed Andale) Recognize the default font and make smarter choices when it is one of the provided mappings. (On Cocoa, the default font is returned when font-info fails, which is not a good thing overall.) For every font, list font version and unicode blocks which are complete.

lua-mode provides support for editing Lua, including automatic indentation, syntactical font-locking, running interactive shell, Flymake checks with luacheck, interacting with `hs-minor-mode and online documentation lookup. The following variables are available for customization (see more via `M-x customize-group lua`): - Var `lua-indent-level': indentation offset in spaces - Var `lua-indent-string-contents': set to `t` if you like to have contents of multiline strings to be indented like comments - Var `lua-indent-nested-block-content-align': set to `nil to stop aligning the content of nested blocks with the open parenthesis - Var `lua-indent-close-paren-align': set to `t to align close parenthesis with the open parenthesis, rather than with the beginning of the line - Var `lua-mode-hook': list of functions to execute when lua-mode is initialized - Var `lua-documentation-url': base URL for documentation lookup - Var `lua-documentation-function': function used to show documentation (`eww` is a viable alternative for Emacs 25) These are variables/commands that operate on the Lua process: - Var `lua-default-application': command to start the Lua process (REPL) - Var `lua-default-command-switches': arguments to pass to the Lua process on startup (make sure `-i` is there if you expect working with Lua shell interactively) - Cmd `lua-start-process': start new REPL process, usually happens automatically - Cmd `lua-kill-process': kill current REPL process These are variables/commands for interaction with the Lua process: - Cmd `lua-show-process-buffer': switch to REPL buffer - Cmd `lua-hide-process-buffer': hide window showing REPL buffer - Var `lua-always-show': show REPL buffer after sending something - Cmd `lua-send-buffer': send whole buffer - Cmd `lua-send-current-line': send current line - Cmd `lua-send-defun': send current top-level function - Cmd `lua-send-region': send active region - Cmd `lua-restart-with-whole-file': restart REPL and send whole buffer To enable on-the-fly linting, make sure you have the luacheck program installed (available from luarocks) and activate `flymake-mode'. See "M-x apropos-command ^lua-" for a list of commands. See "M-x customize-group lua" for a list of customizable variables.
Backend for company mode for the PicoLisp programming language
This file should not be confused with Rick Bielawski's cobol-mode.el (http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/cobol-mode.el), which this mode attempts to supersede. This COBOL mode features syntax highlighting for most modern COBOL dialects, indentation, code skeletons, rulers and basic formatting functions. Highlighting changes with the code format, which can be specified using the M-x customize menu. Installation: To install cobol-mode.el, save it to your .emacs.d/ directory and add the following to your .emacs: (autoload cobol-mode "cobol-mode" "Major mode for highlighting COBOL files." t nil) To automatically load cobol-mode.el upon opening COBOL files, add this: (setq auto-mode-alist (append (("\\.cob\\'" . cobol-mode) ("\\.cbl\\'" . cobol-mode) ("\\.cpy\\'" . cobol-mode)) auto-mode-alist)) Finally, I strongly suggest installing auto-complete-mode, which makes typing long keywords and variable names a thing of the past. See https://github.com/auto-complete/auto-complete. Known bugs: * Switching source formats requires M-x customize settings to be changed, saved and cobol-mode to be unloaded then reloaded. * Copying-and-pasting content in fixed-format sometimes results in content being pasted in column 1 and spaces inserted in the middle of it. * The indentation code leaves a lot of trailing whitespace. * Periods on their own line are sometimes indented strangely. * String continuation does not work. Missing features: * Switch between dialect's reserved word lists via M-x customize (without unloading cobol-mode). * Allow users to modify easily reserved word lists. * Expand copybooks within a buffer. * String continuation (see above). * Allow users to modify start of program-name area.
This package provides a major mode for the pikchr (https://pikchr.org/) diagram markup language.

Package tested on: GNU Emacs 25.2.1 (x86_64-apple-darwin16.5.0) A simple implementation of the yahtzee game. Quick start: add (require yahtzee) in your .emacs M-x yahtzee start a game (in a new buffer) C-c n start a new game (in the same buffer) C-c p add players C-c P reset players SPC throw dice 1,2,3,4,5 hold outcome of 1,2,3,4,5-th dice UP/DOWN select score to register ENTER register selected score w save the game (in json format) The score of a saved game can be loaded using `M-x yahtzee-load-game-score`. Configuration variables: The user might want to set the following variables (see associated docstrings) - `yahtzee-output-file-base - `yahtzee-fields-alist for adding extra fields - `yahtzee-players-names set names of players use (setq-default yahtzee-players-names ...) Note: personally I don't enjoy playing with "Yahtzee bonuses" and "Joker rules" so they are not implemented (even thought they are simple to include). Only the "63 bonus" is available (see `yahtzee-compute-bonus'). Furthermore, some scores differ from the official ones. Changing all this can be done by simply modifying the corresponding functions in the definition of `yahtzee-fields-alist'.
org-babel functions for elixir evaluation
The official major mode for the BQN language in Emacs. Derived from gnu-apl-mode.
dad-joke.el is a terrible bit of elisp code inspired by seeing https://goo.gl/NXTJXk and also with https://goo.gl/ji4Viv in mind. With "thanks" to Sue for being responsible for pointing me at the former, and thus reminding me of the latter.
This let's you locally override functions, in the manner of `flet', but with access to the original function through the symbol: `this-fn'.
This major mode supports writing the Uxntal assmembly langauge as documented at https://wiki.xxiivv.com/site/uxntal.html.
Org-babel support for prolog. To activate ob-prolog add the following to your init.el file: (add-to-list load-path "/path/to/ob-prolog-dir") (org-babel-do-load-languages org-babel-load-languages ((prolog . t))) It is unnecessary to add the directory to the load path if you install using the package manager. In addition to the normal header arguments ob-prolog also supports the :goal argument. :goal is the goal that prolog will run when executing the source block. Prolog needs a goal to know what it is going to execute.
This program is an alarm management tool for Emacs. To set an alarm clock, call `M-x alarm-clock-set', then enter time as the following tips. To view alarm clock list, call `M-x alarm-clock-list-view', then use a key to set a new alarm clock, C-k to kill an alarm clock in the current line.
BNF Mode is a GNU Emacs major mode for editing BNF grammars. Presently it provides basic syntax and font-locking for BNF files. BNF notation is supported exactly form as it was first announced in the ALGOL 60 report.

This package provides access to an IEx shell buffer, optionally running a specific command (e.g. iex -S mix, iex -S mix phx.server, etc)
This library provides common desirable “L”anguage “F”eatures: 0. A unifed interface for defining both variables and functions. LF-DEFINE. 1. A way to define typed, constrained, variables. LF-DEFINE. 2. A way to define type specifed functions. LF-DEFINE. 3. A macro to ease variable updates: (lf-define very-long-name (f it)) ≋ (setq very-long-name (f very-long-name)) 4. A more verbose, yet friendlier, alternative to SETF: LF-DEFINE. Minimal Working Example: (lf-define age 0 [(integerp it) (<= 0 it 100)]) (lf-define age 123) ;; ⇒ Error: Existing constraints for “age” violated! ;; “age” is not updated; it retains old value. (lf-define age 29) ;; OK, “age” is now 29. This file has been tangled from a literate, org-mode, file. There are numerous examples in tests.el.
`company-wordfreq is a company backend intended for writing texts in a human language. The completions it proposes are words already used in the current (or another open) buffer and matching words from a word list file. This word list file is supposed to be a simple list of words ordered by the frequency the words are used in the language. So the first completions are words already used in the buffer followed by matching words of the language ordered by frequency. `company-wordfreq does not come with the word list files directly, but it can download the files for you for many languages from <https://github.com/hermitdave/FrequencyWords>. I made a fork of that repo just in case the original changes all over sudden without my noticing. The directory where the word list files reside is determined by the variable `company-wordfreq-path', default `~/.emacs.d/wordfreq-dicts'. Their names must follow the pattern `<language>.txt where language is the `ispell-local-dictionary value of the current language. You need =grep= in your =$PATH= as =company-wordfreq= uses it to grep into the word list files. Should be the case by default on any UNIX like systems. On windows you might have to tweak it somehow. `company-wordfreq is supposed to be the one and only company backend and `company-mode should not transform or sort its candidates. This can be achieved by setting the variables `company-backends and `company-transformers buffer locally in `text-mode buffers by (add-hook text-mode-hook (lambda () (setq-local company-backends (company-wordfreq)) (setq-local company-transformers nil))) Usually you don't need to configure the language picked to get the word completions. `company-wordfreq uses the variable `ispell-local-dictionary'. It should work dynamically even if you use `auto-dictionary-mode'. To download a word list use M-x company-wordfreq-download-list You are presented a list of languages to choose. For some languages the word lists are huge, which can lead to noticeable latency when the completions are build. Therefore you are asked if you want to use a word list with only the 50k most frequent words. The file will then be downloaded, processed and put in place.
