anyone using lispy-mode ?

[ and ] are bound making it impossible to write actual clojure code

@peeja: did you find a workaround to this bug?

@brian_mingus: It's not a bug: } inserts [ in lispy

It's a little weird, but I actually got used to it really fast

i tried to redefine those keys to j and l (lispy-define-key lispy-mode-map "j" 'lispy-forward)

doesn't work 😞

seems it adds additional bindings and keeps the old ones as well

Well, for one thing, I wouldn't redefine j and l, as they're pretty important to the main lispy bindings already

unless you've got a big plan

i use M-i,j,k,l for winmove up, left, right, down (shortcuts used in gaming)

so it is super weird for lispy to overload the meanings to be different..

i think i won't be able to use lispy-mode until i can tell it to undefine a shortcut, not just add additional ones

Not sure what you mean; Lispy uses HJKL according to their vim meanings

That's the basis for the entire thing

Are you saying you just want the same style but with a different layout?

yeah i just need to be able to define my own keys, which i can do

what i can't do is undefine keys

It's totally valid to want different bindings, I'm just saying it's not "super weird" for lispy to be using HJKL in the first place

i don't use vim, and i need i,k to be up,down, and j,l to be left, right, and i really don't want that goofy [ ] behavior

and i imagine i'll want to customize other things

But, the second thing is that [ and ] are different from most Lispy bindings: they always apply, not just when the point is special

(Their main purpose is to put the point where it's special)

So you don't want to use lispy-define-key to recreate them on another key

I think the right thing to do is just a normal define-key

All that said, themes may be what you're after: https://github.com/abo-abo/lispy/blob/e409298214ce88ed29bcf348177c39ba4ed3a61d/lispy.el#L8290

@peeja thanks

does anyone know a package that lets you convert json into edn and vice-versa? I don’t wanna waste time writing one and then find out there’s better alternative out there

https://github.com/dakrone/cheshire

@brian_mingus: I was asking about Emacs package not clojure lib

oh, what's that for?

to convert json into EDN and vice-versa

in Emacs

you select piece of json and convert it to EDN

or the other way

call clojure and ask it to do it...

there are also python libs that can do it

yeah writing something like this in elisp shouldn’t be hard. though I thought someone may already has done it
