Major refactor & optimization of how modules load their packages 
Now that we are loading package autoloads files (as part of the
generated doom-package-autoload-file when running make autoloads), many
:commands properties are redundant. In fact, many def-package! blocks
are redundant.

In some cases, we can do without a config.el file entirely, and can move
into the autoloads file or rely entirely on package autoloads.

Also, many settings have been moved in their module's autoloads files,
which makes them available ASAP; their use no longer depends on module
load order.

This gained me a modest ~10% boost in startup speed.

:ui window-select

This module provides the user with a visual way to switch windows. By default, the module only kicks in if there are more than two windows open at the same time.

Table of Contents   TOC

Install

Add :feature lookup to your init.el.

Module flags

This module provides two flags:

  • +ace-window Use avy (and ace-window) as the backend.
  • +switch-window Use switch-window as the backend.

If neither flag is specified, +ace-window will be used.

Usage

This module remaps the function other-window to either switch-window or ace-window, depending on which backend you've enabled.

other-window is bound to C-x o and SPC w o.

Configuration

This module provides two backends, both providing the same functionality, but with different visual cues. They are ace-window and switch-window.

ace-window

The first character of the buffers changes to a highlighted, user-selectable character.

  • Pros: The content of the buffers are always visible.
  • Cons: The displayed characters are small and difficult to see.

switch-window

Replaces the entire buffer with large letters.

  • Pros: The displayed characters are really easy to see.
  • Cons: You can't see the contents of the buffers.
