• My Emacs configuration

Emacs is an text editor with a powerful emacs-lisp interpreter.

The core is written in C and is only a small part of the whole emacs. Many distrobutions ship this under the emacs-minimal name.

In addition to the small editor and interpreter at its core it has thousands of emacs-lisp scripts that shipps with it, which extends it greatly. Some functions it has are:

• Folding code
• Syntax highlighting
• Fuzzy search for commands, files and more
• Completion
• Email client (rmail & gnus)
• An IRC client, ERC
• And more

The main reason I use Emacs is that I have everything I need at hands reach at all times.

Do I need to write an email? M-x rmail. Do i need to check the git log? C-x v L, do I need to export the org document to word? C-c C-e o o, and a lot more.

No matter what I always have everything I need within reach, and as Emacs has all I need too I can do my daily tasks in one application.
