5 | # Lazy mastery of Emacs with Hydras
6 |
7 | ## Brief introduction for the impatient
8 | The above `learning-spiral-hydras.el` file supports a lazy approach to mastering key bindings (keyboard shortcuts) in the core of GNU Emacs.
9 | The commands you try to master are listed in multi-part pop-up menus.
10 | I could have mapped these commands to the functions that they represent, but I did not do so to force the manual entry of the key bindings.
11 | This is a learning aid, not a crutch.
12 |
13 | The parent pop-up menu is invoked by entering `C-c 1` from any buffer.
14 | Navigate to the child menus by clicking on the blue colored letter.
15 | Each child menu is a separate Hydra.
16 | Feel free to break these Hydras into standalone Hydras.
17 |
18 | Menus (Hydras) specific to particular major modes and packages are under development as separate Hydras to minimize the nesting of Hydras.
19 | One child menu exists for LaTeX-mode.
20 |
21 | The file is easily edited for customization to meet your needs.
22 | I expect it to be used as a template.
23 | If you are a beginning Emacs user, you can use these lists to jump-start your use of Emacs.
24 |
25 | The code blocks and snapshots below show the individual hydras.
26 | The lists of keybindings in these hydras are abbreviated to save space.
27 | The `learning-spiral-hydras.el` contains my current GNU Emacs core hydras, which are more numerous than those in the lists shown below.
28 |
29 | Of course, you can access similar information by using the built-in info system.
30 | However, beginners need help with this extensive system.
31 | The above may Hydras help beginners jump-start using the keybindings, including those that access the info system.
32 |
33 | ## Longer introduction for the curious
34 | [Hydras](https://github.com/abo-abo/hydra) are popup menus in Emacs--the ultimate text editor that is ``hard to learn but easy to use''.
35 | Hydras demonstrate the highly configurable nature of Emacs.
36 | These pop-up menus are called Hydras because one Hydra popup menu can be used to call many other Hydra popup menus.
37 | However, only one Hydra is displayed at a time.
38 |
39 | I use a **Hydras of Hydras** as a port of entry to all my Hydras.
40 | There is no limit to how deeply the Hydras can be nested.
41 | Because of this feature, the analogy with the mythological beast breaks down to the disappointment of those who know their Greek mythology.
42 |
43 | Hydras are often associated with a specific Emacs package to ease the use of the functions in that package.
44 | They provide shortcuts in single or multiple letters that can be entered on the keyboard or clicked on with the cursor to invoke the associated function.
45 | In addition to running elisp functions inside Emacs, Hydras can open external applications from inside Emacs, open specific files for editing or reading, and open specific web pages in your default browser.
46 | The latter two features can be done using the bookmarks package built into Emacs's core.
47 | The blue-colored letters in the snapshot of the Hydra below are mapped to commands invoked by clicking the letter(s) with the cursor.
48 | Hydras are used to evade learning the corresponding key bindings.
49 |
50 | 
51 |
52 | Here, we take the opposite approach!
53 | We use Hydras's pop-up menu to quickly access a list of Emacs keybindings for which we are trying to build muscle memory.
54 | We are trying to build up muscle memory of the key bindings so that we do not have to recall them when we need to use them.
55 | We open the pop-up menu by entering `C-c 1`.
56 | We can close the Hydra by clicking on it, the **q** button, or entering **q** on the keyboard.
57 |
58 | The lazy way of using this list is to invoke it at the start of a work session in Emacs.
59 | We can scan the list as a quick reminder of the keybindings we are trying to master.
60 | A more robust approach would be to set aside several minutes to enter each keybinding we are trying to master five or ten times on the keyboard to build muscle memory.
61 | You would unlikely have time to review the complete list, but this approach is practical when working with 5 to 10 new keybindings daily.
62 | The goal is to build the muscle memory of the key bindings on this list.
63 |
64 | After the keybinding is internalized, you can move it to the list of mastered keybindings in another hydra that lists the keybindings you think you have mastered.
65 | The list of mastered key bindings can be reviewed occasionally to ensure you have mastered them.
66 | You invoke this second Hydra by clicking the `km` button: `km` represents `keybindings mastered`.
67 |
68 | You can use the Hydras in the above `learning-spiral-hydra.el` file as templates to make additional Hydras.
69 | For example, you might want a Hydra specific to a particular package or major mode with a long list of key bindings you are trying to master.
70 | These related key bindings could be stored in a separate Hydra to reduce the clutter of the master Hydra.
71 |
72 | There is a limit to how many key bindings you can display in a Hydra.
73 | The font size and the height of your computer screen impose the limit.
74 | You can only zoom out so far before the font grows too tiny to see.
75 |
76 | You can display the keybindings in multiple columns.
77 | I have yet to master setting up multiple columns in an easy way, so I tend to avoid this tactic.
78 | I find it easier to create a second Hydra when there are overflow key bindings.
79 | Just click on `n` to advance to the next section of the list of keybindings.
80 |
81 | ## History
82 | The Hydras in the above file were inspired by a recent Austin Emacs Meetup discussion where Ag mentioned maintaining a list of keybindings that he was trying to master.
83 | I think he was using an org file to store this list.
84 | I am reducing the friction further by negating the need to navigate to such a file.
85 | You do not have to remember the name or location of that org file.
86 | This can be a problem if there has been a long break from viewing this file.
87 | Just enter `C-c 1` from any buffer to display the master learning spiral Hydra.
88 | The use of the master Hydra has a lower energy barrier than navigating to a text file.
89 |

92 | ### Emacs quizzes
93 | A more active means of mastering the keybindings is to take [quizzes](https://github.com/MooersLab/qemacs) about them.
94 | The above PDFs of quiz questions can be printed, and the quiz can be taken when away from the computer.
95 | These quizzes can be taken when you have time to kill, such as standing in the airport boarding line, commuting on public transit, or waiting for a seminar to start.
96 |
97 |
103 |
104 | ### Related Desktop Wallpaper
105 |
106 | I made a desktop [wallpaper of common Emacs keybindings](https://codeberg.org/MooersLab/EmacsWallPaper).
107 | Sometimes this is useful to quickly discover what keybindings you have not mastered in Emacs.
108 | It is a more passive and lazier approach.
109 | It might be helpful for some beginners.
110 | You can use it as a template to create your own.
111 |
112 |
113 | ## Installation
114 |
115 | Install where you see fit.
116 | My emacs directory (i.e., `~/emacs29`) is not a hidden folder, unlike what is recommended.
117 | I store my Hydras in a subfolder called `my-hydras` (i.e., `~/emacs29/my-hydras`).
118 |
119 |
120 | ```elisp
121 | git clone https://github.com/MooersLab/emacs-learning-spiral-hydra.git
122 | ```
123 |
124 | ### Requirements
125 |
126 | Requires the `hydra` package from MELPA.
127 | I also use the `pretty-hydra` package.
128 | I use version 30.0.5 of GNU Emacs on an Intel Mac.
129 | It should work with version 29 of GNU Emacs and perhaps earlier versions of Emacs.
130 |
131 |
132 | ### Configuration
133 |
134 | The configuration below is for the users of the `use-package` package system for managing Emacs packages.
135 |
136 | - Customize the file path. I store the file `learning-spiral-hydra.el` inside of the folder `~/emacs29/my-hydras/`. I do not use hidden files to store my Emacs configuration.
137 | - Customize the keybinding below if it conflicts. Check by entering `C-h k C-c 1`, where `C` stands for the Control key and the `-` means press the Control key with the second key simultaneously.
138 | - Customize the content of each Hydra to meet your learning objectives.
139 | - Add the following lines to your init.el file. The file my-hydra.el is a master Hydra for calling other Hydras. You do not need it if you only use the emacs-learning-spiral Hydra.
140 |
141 | ```elisp
142 | (use-package learning-spiral-hydras
143 | :load-path "~/emacs29/my-hydras/")
144 | (global-set-key (kbd "C-c 1") 'hydra-of-learning-spiral/body)
145 |
146 | ;;;## reload-init
147 | ;; Inspried https://sachachua.com/dotemacs/index.html#org4dd39d0
148 | (defun reload-init ()
149 | "Reload my init.el file. Edit the path to suite your needs."
150 | (interactive)
151 | (load-file "~/emacs29/init.el"))
152 |
153 | ;;;## reload-hydras
154 | (defun reload-hydras ()
155 | "Reload my-hydras.el. Edit the path to suite your needs."
156 | (interactive)
157 | (load-file "~/emacs29/my-hydras/my-hydras.el"))
158 |
159 | ;;;## reload-learning-spiral-hydras
160 | (defun reload-learning-spiral-hydras ()
161 | "Reload learning-spiral-hydras.el. Edit the path to suite your needs."
162 | (interactive)
163 | (load-file "~/emacs29/my-hydras/learning-spiral-hydras.el"))
164 | ```
165 |
166 | #### Caveats
167 | You may have to delete the following line from each Hydra if you lack a master **hydra-of-hydras**.
168 |
169 | ```elisp
170 | ("z" hydra-of-hydras/body :color blue)
171 | ```
