This repository provides nightly automated builds of Emacs from HEAD for macOS Nix environments with the following additions:

- Native Compilation ([gccemacs](https://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/GccEmacs))

- [X Widgets](https://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/EmacsXWidgets) (Webkit) support

- [libvterm](https://github.com/akermu/emacs-libvterm)

- Patched window role to work nicely with [yabai](https://github.com/koekeishiya/yabai)

## Recent Changes

The `no-titlebar` frame patch has been removed, as it can be implemented with

pure Emacs Lisp by putting the following early on during initialization (e.g. in

`early-init.el`):

```emacs-lisp

(add-to-list 'default-frame-alist '(undecorated . t))

```

See https://github.com/d12frosted/homebrew-emacs-plus/issues/433#issuecomment-1025547880 for further background.

## Usage

To use this flake on your system, add it to your configuration inputs & overlays.  

It overlays the `pkgs.emacs` package.  

There is a [complimentary binary cache](https://app.cachix.org/cache/emacs) available which is pushed to nightly.

```nix

{

  inputs.darwin.url = "github:lnl7/nix-darwin";

  inputs.emacs.url = "github:cmacrae/emacs";

  outputs = { self, darwin, emacs }: {

    darwinConfigurations.example = darwin.lib.darwinSystem {

      modules = [

        {

          nix.binaryCaches = [

            "https://cachix.org/api/v1/cache/emacs"

          ];

          nix.binaryCachePublicKeys = [

            "emacs.cachix.org-1:b1SMJNLY/mZF6GxQE+eDBeps7WnkT0Po55TAyzwOxTY="

          ];

          nixpkgs.overlays = [

            emacs.overlay

          ];

        }

      ];

    };

  };

}

```
