#+TITLE:My Nyxt Configuration Files



WARNING: [[https://www.aartaka.me.eu.org/nyxt-to-surf][I no longer use Nyxt]], so this config is likely to rot and get wildly irrelevant. Proceed with caution.



* The hub of configuration (config.lisp)

This loads other configuration files:

- Nyxt-dependent:

  - keybinds.lisp,

  - passwd.lisp,

  - status.lisp,

  - style.lisp,

  - commands.lisp,

  - hsplit.lisp,

  - unpdf.lisp;

  - objdump.lisp;

- and extension-dependent:

  - ace.lisp

  - kaomoji.lisp

  - search-engines.lisp

  - freestance.lisp

  - dark-reader.lisp



And configures some basic things, like default modes for buffers.



Everything interesting is in other files.



* Some custom keybindings (keybinds.lisp)



There are some things that irritate me in default keybindings and I want to unbind/rebind these.



There are some commands that I lack keybindings for (e.g., password management, prompting history movement) and I want to add these.



A good example of how you can redefine mode keybinding there!



* Alternative format for status-buffer (status.lisp)



I don't like the default wordy version of status-buffer (especially with long mode names), so I define my own styles and layouts to make it lighter.



This can evolve into an extension someday.



* Styling (style.lisp)



I love dark themes everywhere, and I _don't_ like any colors but red. This have made me to do black-red-and-green [[https://github.com/aartaka/laconia-theme][laconia-theme]]. I'm trying to reproduce it in style.lisp.



Right now it uses the 3.0 =theme= library (made by yours truly :P).



* Additional commands (commands.lisp)



I lack some things in Nyxt, like the ability to evaluate arbitrary Lisp expression without a REPL (there used to be a command for that in 1.5, but it was phased out) and horisontal split, so I hack those with some possibly non-portable things and internal Nyxt APIs.



* Hacky hsplit (hsplit.lisp)



It's too useful to have hsplit to not implement a hacky one based on panel buffers :P



* A barebones PDF text reader (unpdf.lisp)



This one leverages Nyxt 3.* improved request processing to redirect any PDF file I load to a separate buffer, where its text is parsed with ~pdftotext~. I like ~pdftotext~ (even if it's quite chaotic at times), so why not extend this passion to Nyxt? :P



* Experiments with objdump (objdump.lisp)



I cherish a dream of getting into reverse engineering, and ~objdump~ seems to be a good and simple utility to get one's feet wet. Thus, this simple ~objdump~ command to display section contents as a webpage.



* Lots of search engines for different things (search-engines.lisp)

This file has actually evolved from small configuration to an extension: [[https://github.com/aartaka/nx-search-engines][nx-search-engines]], so now it's basically an extension configuration. To use it, you need to do

#+BEGIN_SRC lisp

  (define-nyxt-user-system-and-load "nyxt-user/search-engines"

    :depends-on (:nx-search-engines) (:components "search-engines.lisp"))

#+END_SRC

in your init.lisp.



* A KeePassXC configuration (passwd.lisp)

This used to contain a =setup-keepassxc= function to setup KeePassXC to better work with built-in password interface. Now this function is merged upstream as part of this password interface, so what's left is just a simple re-configuration of defaults.



* Bookmarks relocation (bookmarks.lisp)



This is a file with all my bookmarks, Git-synced across devices. The snippet (in init.lisp) that enables it is:

#+begin_src lisp

  (defmethod files:resolve ((profile nyxt:nyxt-profile) (file nyxt/bookmark-mode:bookmarks-file))

    (uiop:parse-unix-namestring "~/.config/nyxt/bookmarks.lisp"))

#+end_src



* Ace editor inside Nyxt (ace.lisp)



This configures [[https://github.com/atlas-engineer/nx-ace][nx-ace]] to work as a default =editor-mode=. To enable it, you need to use

#+BEGIN_SRC lisp

  (define-nyxt-user-system-and-load "nyxt-user/search-engines"

    :depends-on (:nx-ace) (:components "ace.lisp"))

#+END_SRC

in your init.lisp.



* Easy-to-paste Kaomojis (kaomoji.lisp)



I fell in love with Kaomojis, and I need an easy way to paste these in

my browser. That's why I made [[https://github.com/aartaka/nx-kaomoji][nx-kaomoji]]! Now I can paste

over-emotional responses everywhere!



This file is simply a keybinding configuration.

To enable nx-kaomoji, you need to use

#+BEGIN_SRC lisp

  (define-nyxt-user-system-and-load "nyxt-user/search-engines"

    :depends-on (:nx-kaomoji) (:components "kaomoji.lisp"))

#+END_SRC

in your init.lisp.



* Redirections to free alternatives for Twitter/YouTube

I rely on [[https://github.com/kssytsrk/nx-freestance-handler][kssytsrk/nx-freestance-handler]] here. It's mostly plug-n-play, so not much configuration there.



* A reasonable dark theme via Dark Reader

This is based on [[https://github.com/aartaka/nx-dark-reader][my extension]] using [[https://github.com/darkreader/darkreader][Dark Reader]] to offer a good dark theme for almost any website. Does nothing special -- simply configures some colors for Dark Reader to work better with my theme from [[Styling (style.lisp)][style.lisp]].
