- billfruit 5y agoOr over smartparens?
- countvajhula 5y agoSymex is modal, unlike smartparens. It's basically a kind of evil "Normal state" but dedicated and specialized to editing Lisp code.
- srcreigh 5y agoSymex mode is a DSL for specifying paredit-like movements. It's implemented in terms of paredit and other libraries. https://github.com/countvajhula/symex.el#introduction https://github.com/countvajhula/symex.el#introduction Libraries like this are the most emacsy because the whole point of emacs is that it isn't just a good editor, but a platform/language for building good editors.
