Creating Custom Minor Modes - Learning Emacs Lisp #7

In this video, we'll learn how to create custom minor modes and hooks in Emacs Lisp! We'll also continue with our dotcrafter.el project by creating a minor mode that will cause our Org Mode configuration files to be automatically tangled when saved. Check out the show notes here: https://systemcrafters.cc/learning-emacs-lisp/creating-minor-modes The code for dotcrafter.el can be found here: https://github.com/daviwil/dotcrafter.el We cover the following topics: - 0:00 Intro - 0:34 What will we learn? - 1:53 What is a "mode"? - 6:46 Writing a basic minor mode - 12:44 Example: Creating a simple minor mode from scratch - 22:26 Creating a Hook - 25:55 Using the define-minor-mode macro - 34:09 Example: Writing real behavior for dotcrafter-mode - 47:39 What's next?
