Oh no! My very embarrassing talk where I was missing that magic 1 or 2 packages from my manifest and then everything fell apart. I think I need to watch it again myself and then try redoing it at home. > Contributions in the Guix manual or in the cookbook about how to setup > other editors than Emacs are very welcome. This is the big part. I have a setup that works reasonably well for me and I haven't done a good job sharing it with others so they can see some of the other options. IIRC one of the big things I wanted to show was using ctags with Guix to jump quickly between packages or to other definitions. Right now the tags make target is a stub, I (or someone else even) should see about adjusting that so 'make tags' works for the project. -- Efraim Flashner <efr...@flashner.co.il> רנשלפ םירפא GPG key = A28B F40C 3E55 1372 662D 14F7 41AA E7DC CA3D 8351 Confidentiality cannot be guaranteed on emails sent or received unencrypted
