Swanand’s Emacs config

This repo contains my personal Emacs configuration. It shouldn’t have problems working on Linux and Mac OS X. I am using version 25.1.1. I have used use-package to write my configuration.

Earlier, I was religious towards vim, until Baishampayan Ghose showed his Emacs to us in our college and I was amazed by the powers of Emacs! Now, a Emacs lover! ✌️ 😎

Prerequisites

General

I am using aspell for spell checking. Make sure you install it before you use this config.

Mac OS X

I love Source Code Pro font. I would highly recommend for Linux as well. It has:

Crisp clear characters.
Good use of whitespace.
‘l’, ‘1’ and ‘i’ are easily distinguished.
‘0’, ‘o’ and ‘O’ are easily distinguished and many more!
