That's pretty much what I had for the last six months or so; a single literate org configuration, for all my tools, and some bootstrapping scripts to tangle it. The configuration was sorted by category, so I had a mail section which held the dotfiles for msmtp, mpop, mairix, rmail, and the parts of the guix profile necessary to install those programs, an interface section for xresources, emacs theme, and the gui lobotomisation, and so on. I found this very beneficial in working out what was actually necessary for each way I interacted with the computer and how they linked together. I didn't like using features written exclusively as part as Emacs though (org mode for example), preferring to use tools which Emacs was simply an interface for (such as shell or rmail), and I've been moving away from Emacs because of this. I've started tentative designs for something similar to Acme but keyboard-oriented to fill this niche for me but ultimately I'm not sure what I want. But whatever happens, whatever I think idealistically, you can guarantee that I'm going to back on Emacs in a month or so, because I'm addicted and can't get away from it. |
