- Description:
- Consult provides search and navigation commands based on the Emacs
completion function completing-read documented in the Elisp
manual. Completion allows you to quickly select an item from a list of
candidates. Consult offers asynchronous and interactive consult-grep
and consult-ripgrep commands, and the line-based search command
consult-line. Furthermore Consult provides an advanced buffer
switching command consult-buffer to switch between buffers, recently
opened files, bookmarks and buffer-like candidates from other
sources. Some of the Consult commands are enhanced versions of
built-in Emacs commands. For example the command consult-imenu
presents a flat list of the Imenu with live preview, grouping and
narrowing.
Consult is fully compatible with completion systems centered around
the standard Emacs completing-read API, Vertico, Mct, and the built-in
default completion system and Icomplete.

Emacs Lisp ports framework: Overhaul
This overhaul introduces four key changes to the elisp ports framework:
1. Remove support for packaged byte-compiled elisp.
The primary motivation is to remove a large number of flavor-specific
packages and to simplify the ports tree. As an example, supporting
byte-compiled elisp for devel/tablist required six packages, one for
each flavor of editors/emacs and editors/emacs-devel. With over 100
elisp ports and requests for new Emacs flavors, this was
unmanageable.
2. Install configuration to integrate with Emacs's native compilation
machinery, allowing elisp from ports to be compiled into the standard (Only the first 15 lines of the commit message are shown above  ) |
