## Prelude
|
|
|
|
Emacs is probably the best text editor in the world. However, the
|
|
process of coming up with a useful Emacs configuration is long and
|
|
difficult. It's this process that separates you from truly taking
|
|
advantage of Emacs's power. I like to refer to this process as the
|
|
**Prelude**. **Prelude** has the goal to ease the initial Emacs setup
|
|
process and to provide you with a much more powerful and productive
|
|
experience than that you get out of the box. By using **Prelude**
|
|
you're basically getting a "Get me out of the Prelude, I just want to
|
|
use Emacs" card.
|
|
|
|
**Prelude** is compatible **ONLY with GNU Emacs 24**. While Emacs 24
|
|
is not yet officially released it's a rock solid piece of software
|
|
more than suitable for everyday work. There is no good excuse not to
|
|
use Emacs 24!
|
|
|
|
## Fast Forward
|
|
|
|
Assuming you're using an Unix-like OS (`*BSD`, `GNU/Linux`, `OS X`, `Solaris`,
|
|
etc), you already have Emacs 24 installed, as well as `git` & `curl` you
|
|
can skip the whole manual and just type in your favorite shell the
|
|
following command:
|
|
|
|
`curl -L
|
|
https://github.com/bbatsov/prelude/raw/master/utils/installer.sh
|
|
| sh`
|
|
|
|
You can now power up your Emacs, sit back and enjoy Prelude.

|
I'd like to include a nice variety of Emacs 24 themes into Prelude -
|
|
so if you've developed (or simply found) one - give me a shout and
|
|
I'll take a look at it.
