Better than the original 1.0 in some aspects. 1.0 was a monopoly of Uncle Dave’s tutorials. 2.0 uses the power from the vast internet and configuration knowledge is not restricted by some Uncle Dave.
Here we go with the config…
Firstly Install MELPA, which is a better package maanger for Emacs. Better in a way that it offers tons of more packages and to be honest, ELPA, the default ones are not even useful. To install MELPA, add following snippet at the starting of your init.el.
(require 'package)
;; Any add to list for package-archives (to add marmalade or melpa) goes here
(add-to-list 'package-archives
'("MELPA" .
"http://melpa.org/packages/"))
(package-initialize)
Follow the config.org file for detailed list and configuration of packages and basic settings.
