Lots of literate configuration attempts are disappointing in that they feature almost no commentary and are strictly linear. In my eyes, these are the two biggest advantages of the literate programming model to begin with. Oleksii's configuration is nice in that it has both lots of commentary, and is non-linear. It also features configuration for more than one program, mixed together with the parts that matter. For this initial test, my configuration fails on both counts. All i've done is put every section of elisp into a code block and turned the comments into normal org text. Over time, i hope to expand it into something which ticks both of those boxes. -* Emacs installation +** Emacs installation #+begin_src sh :tangle no BUILD_OPTS=$(emacs \ --batch \ @@ -31,6 +31,9 @@ For this initial test, my configuration fails on both counts.
