starting to work on non-scala projects more so want to become more proficient with emacs.

Quick reference for things to learn well. Once They're in my head, remove or put em in the graveyard.

Smex

C-h f, while Smex is active, runs describe-function on the currently selected command. M-. jumps to the definition of the selected command. C-h w shows the key bindings for the selected command. (Via where-is.) smex-show-unbound-commands shows frequently used commands that have no key bindings.

Windowing Management

I've been slack with managing buffers. Couple notes:

• split window horizontally/vertically: C-x 2 or C-x 3

• close the current window with C-x 0

• close all other windows with C-x 1

• change to other window with C-x o

• open an entire new frame with C-x 5 2 (delete with 0 and 1 as with windows)

helm-projectile project navigation

Speed bar isn't really suitable for navigating projects. I've been trying to use helm-projectile for super fast navigation

• set a project with C-c p p
• find a file with C-c p f most of the commands of interest (delete, move etc) can be executed from the find file command
