emacs-skel

Default emacs config for new users.

What?

This is a configuration file for the emacs editor with sensible defaults. While there are already a couple of such configs available, this one tries to customize some more aspects of emacs while keeping things simple.

It doesn't require any additional stuff to be installed, no emacs modules or libraries etc. Also it only consists of one file. Well, in fact, there are two files, one contains german and the other one english comments inside.

Screenshot

Install

Copy the file dot-emacs-de or dot-emacs-en into the directory /etc/skel/.emacs, so that new users on the system can start using emacs with sensible defaults.

You may also copy the file to your $HOME/.emacs directory if you want to use it yourself.

Testing

If you just want to test it without installing, issue:

emacs -q -l dot-emacs-en

Requirements

None (beside emacs, of course).
