NΛNO Writer mode

Abstract | NΛNO writer mode is an emacs minor mode based on org-mode whose goal is to offer a nice writing environment such that it is not necessary to transform the document to read it, GNU Emacs being the main reader.

Introduction

Following up my article on the design of text editors [1], this is an experiment at designing a template for scientific article that can be read and interacted with directly from within GNU Emacs based on the all-mighty org-mode.

Alternative indentation

By tweaking org-indent--compute-prefixes, it is possible to align text on the left and have the leading stars in the margin.

Typography

Body font is Roboto Mono Light, title font is Roboto Slab, headers font is Roboto and theme is NΛNO light theme [2]. Line spacing is 1.

Section numbering

Automatic section numbering is done using org-num-mode with a special format function.
