WEBVTT
00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:01.680
for the list of questions in whatever
00:00:01.680 --> 00:00:03.520
order you like
00:00:03.520 --> 00:00:06.160
okay so I see what package is used um
00:00:06.160 --> 00:00:08.000
probably cemex mode
00:00:08.000 --> 00:00:10.400
um right so the main package that was
00:00:10.400 --> 00:00:11.360
being demoed
00:00:11.360 --> 00:00:14.480
um that is not yet on melpa in fact I
00:00:14.480 --> 00:00:16.720
haven't even decided on a name for it
00:00:16.720 --> 00:00:19.359
um I've alternately alternately called
00:00:19.359 --> 00:00:22.080
it epistemic mode I've called it
00:00:22.080 --> 00:00:26.000
um england I called it uh
00:00:26.000 --> 00:00:28.560
all kinds of things but at the moment
00:00:28.560 --> 00:00:30.240
you can find it on my github there's a
00:00:30.240 --> 00:00:31.439
link
00:00:31.439 --> 00:00:32.960
in the presentation itself if you go to
00:00:32.960 --> 00:00:35.600
github slash account about
00:00:35.600 --> 00:00:38.879
um the package there it's currently
00:00:38.879 --> 00:00:39.840
named indra
00:00:39.840 --> 00:00:42.879
I'm not sure um
00:00:42.879 --> 00:00:46.800
packages actually yes the second one is
00:00:46.800 --> 00:00:49.920
red that was the name that I selected um
00:00:49.920 --> 00:00:53.280
last night um and that's because it
00:00:53.280 --> 00:00:53.920
might that
00:00:53.920 --> 00:00:55.760
there's a concept in tibetan buddhism
00:00:55.760 --> 00:00:57.520
that seems like it might have something
00:00:57.520 --> 00:00:58.480
to do with
00:00:58.480 --> 00:00:59.840
the kinds of concepts we're talking
00:00:59.840 --> 00:01:01.600
about with this package so I just
00:01:01.600 --> 00:01:04.000
thought it would be a good name for it
00:01:04.000 --> 00:01:05.760
so you can look up that concept
00:01:05.760 --> 00:01:09.920
and get a sense of it on wikipedia
00:01:09.920 --> 00:01:13.119
next question is how to deal with dwarak
00:01:13.119 --> 00:01:15.759
dwarjak or however that's pronounced
00:01:15.759 --> 00:01:16.960
this is always bug me
00:01:16.960 --> 00:01:20.400
is there an x-mod map mode so the thing
00:01:20.400 --> 00:01:22.400
with this is it's kind of surprising but
00:01:22.400 --> 00:01:23.360
although vim
00:01:23.360 --> 00:01:26.000
was originally developed um you know
00:01:26.000 --> 00:01:27.200
with the idea of
00:01:27.200 --> 00:01:29.520
the key bindings being on the home rule
00:01:29.520 --> 00:01:32.000
it turns out that that is actually not a
00:01:32.000 --> 00:01:33.119
major aspect
00:01:33.119 --> 00:01:36.400
of the vim editing experience so
00:01:36.400 --> 00:01:38.560
people who use the dvorak layout
00:01:38.560 --> 00:01:40.720
actually end up using the same keys as
00:01:40.720 --> 00:01:42.640
they do on the normal qwerty layout so
00:01:42.640 --> 00:01:44.720
they don't remap anything
00:01:44.720 --> 00:01:48.159
because the uh the the sort of
00:01:48.159 --> 00:01:51.040
the power that vim or the the
00:01:51.040 --> 00:01:52.240
flexibility the
00:01:52.240 --> 00:01:55.600
spiral that bim enables on qwerty layout
00:01:55.600 --> 00:01:56.880
keyboards is exactly
00:01:56.880 --> 00:01:58.719
preserved even on a door jack keyboard
00:01:58.719 --> 00:01:59.920
even though you your
00:01:59.920 --> 00:02:01.920
fingers are not in the same positions
00:02:01.920 --> 00:02:04.399
it's not a big deal actually
00:02:04.399 --> 00:02:09.119
um and then I mostly use default model
00:02:09.119 --> 00:02:10.879
provided by vanilla Emacs and work and
00:02:10.879 --> 00:02:12.319
org mode for text editing can you give
00:02:12.319 --> 00:02:13.840
me some examples
00:02:13.840 --> 00:02:15.920
of how the user can use the concept of
00:02:15.920 --> 00:02:17.280
mode mode
00:02:17.280 --> 00:02:20.840
to do some interesting
00:02:20.840 --> 00:02:24.640
um so probably the main thing would be
00:02:24.640 --> 00:02:25.120
the
00:02:25.120 --> 00:02:27.920
the keystrokes would be less uh
00:02:27.920 --> 00:02:28.959
contrived
00:02:28.959 --> 00:02:32.080
so they the the fewer modes you have
00:02:32.080 --> 00:02:36.560
the more modifiers you need
00:02:36.560 --> 00:02:39.840
in order to um do whatever it is that
00:02:39.840 --> 00:02:41.280
you're trying to do because you've got
00:02:41.280 --> 00:02:44.800
essentially with a max model you've got
00:02:44.800 --> 00:02:48.080
a completely flat
00:02:48.080 --> 00:02:50.959
keyboard structure and so all of the
00:02:50.959 --> 00:02:52.160
different things that you might
00:02:52.160 --> 00:02:55.680
want to express are all mapped to a flat
00:02:55.680 --> 00:02:58.720
keyboard uh set of keys
00:02:58.720 --> 00:03:02.840
so with um with this kind of
00:03:02.840 --> 00:03:06.400
modal structure the more modes you have
00:03:06.400 --> 00:03:09.200
the more the individual keystrokes
00:03:09.200 --> 00:03:10.400
become
00:03:10.400 --> 00:03:13.200
shorter and shorter so that could be one
00:03:13.200 --> 00:03:14.959
benefit that would be provided
00:03:14.959 --> 00:03:17.519
with many modes your keystrokes would
00:03:17.519 --> 00:03:18.000
generally
00:03:18.000 --> 00:03:20.080
be a single keystroke long for even
00:03:20.080 --> 00:03:22.080
relatively complex tasks
00:03:22.080 --> 00:03:24.159
because you're setting the context
00:03:24.159 --> 00:03:25.440
beforehand
00:03:25.440 --> 00:03:27.200
so you already say oh I'm going to be
00:03:27.200 --> 00:03:30.840
talking about this org buffer
00:03:30.840 --> 00:03:33.440
agenda and then
00:03:33.440 --> 00:03:36.319
um the all the keystrokes that you do at
00:03:36.319 --> 00:03:39.599
that point would be in relation to that
00:03:39.599 --> 00:03:42.159
um okay I think we have time for like
00:03:42.159 --> 00:03:44.080
one more short question
00:03:44.080 --> 00:03:46.879
one more short question okay let's see
00:03:46.879 --> 00:03:48.879
how do new modes come into existence you
00:03:48.879 --> 00:03:50.400
can make them yourself
00:03:50.400 --> 00:03:53.040
um and you can specify them in Emacs
00:03:53.040 --> 00:03:53.760
lisp
00:03:53.760 --> 00:03:56.159
if you like but there's also simple you
00:03:56.159 --> 00:03:59.040
can also do it visually as we did
00:03:59.040 --> 00:04:02.720
um but the yeah defining them
00:04:02.720 --> 00:04:04.799
is essentially built on top of hydra but
00:04:04.799 --> 00:04:07.519
it could also be built on top of evil or
00:04:07.519 --> 00:04:09.120
any other modal interface provider
00:04:09.120 --> 00:04:12.840
there's an abstraction layer
00:04:12.840 --> 00:04:15.920
okay thank you so much for your talk and
00:04:15.920 --> 00:04:17.919
for the live q a
00:04:17.919 --> 00:04:21.440
sure thank you yes feel free to um take
00:04:21.440 --> 00:04:22.880
up the rest of the questions either via
00:04:22.880 --> 00:04:23.759
irc or
00:04:23.759 --> 00:04:25.680
on the pad on on your own time off the
00:04:25.680 --> 00:04:26.960
stream
00:04:26.960 --> 00:04:28.639
perfect yeah I'll go ahead and put in
00:04:28.639 --> 00:04:30.000
some answers there
00:04:30.000 --> 00:04:32.240
awesome thank you all right thank you
00:04:32.240 --> 00:04:33.120
have a good one
00:04:33.120 --> 00:04:36.880
thanks you too
