The big downside of usuing these cookies to inject my configuration into the
loading of a package is that it means that I can't load that package without my
configuration anymore. This means that when I start ‘emacs -Q’ and then call
‘package-initialize’ it'll load my configuration as well. This makes debugging
things very difficult.
‘eshell-mode-map’ isn’t a keymap until after ‘eshell-mode’ has run. It’s defined
as ‘nil’ in the top-level of the ‘esh-mode’ package. ‘nil’ is not a valid keymap
that new keys can be defined into.
Apparently when the ‘oni-eshell’ library gets loaded neither
‘eshell-preoutput-filter-functions’ nor ‘eshell-output-filter-functions’ are
ready to be used, even though they are defined in the ‘esh-mode’ libary, which
is loaded at this point in time.
In order to support my tablet which seems to have a lower maximum integer
value (I guess it’s 32-bit? I’m surprised) and can’t handle the version numbers
I was using before. It would turn them into floating point numbers, which adds a
~.0~, this made it impossible to install any package.
Any installations I have will need to reinstall all their oni packages so that
the new version number is picked up, since the new version number will be lower
than the old one.
