Emacs at Lunch: Time & Dates

[@mitchell2769]

great video! What package are you using to get the parent heading breadcrumbs at the top when you narrow to a heading?

[@borkesahin8729]

woow beautiful and can we type comment in src elisp field? i mean in the black background

[@Positron-gv7do]

Yes, Org source blocks fontify elisp mostly the same. In the future it should become exactly identical as tools like polymode, tree-sitter, and org mode mature together.

[@borkesahin8729]

and can we use org-bullets in the block?

See also the MELPA library ts.el.

[@Positron-gv7do]

The API of ts is a little more familiar and convenient for Elisp foreigners. I wish I mentioned it. github.com/alphapapa/ts.el for other readers. I wrote a lot of content comparing ts and the built-in packages. Ultimately I decided not to highlight it because it became apparent that the built-ins do cover all the use cases with a satisfactorily compact set of usage patterns.

@@Positron-gv7do ts.el was developed before some of the recent additions to Emacs's time/date APIs, like the decoded-time accessors. It was also designed to save the user from having to worry about the different time value formats by using one internal representation.
