\n
\nI recently posted on the emacs subreddit and a user recommended that I join this group because it&#39;s also friendly towards newbies.
\n
\nI&#39;ve been using emacs as a C++ IDE, and I&#39;m slowly correcting things that are annoying.  I&#39;m essentially using [redguardtoo&#39;s emacs.d file][1].
\n
\nI have a tag file that is 225MB (1.6M Tags).  My intent for the tag is not necessarily completion (using `company`), but more for jumping around source code.  I&#39;m working with an unfamiliar code base and often need to see macro or class definitions.
\n
\nWhen I start typing, at random times, I&#39;ll see a message in the minibuffer
\n
\n    Making tag completion table for [tag file]...0-100%
\n
\nThen, a popup listbox shows up with autocompletion options.
\n
\nBecause this tag file is so large, and it doesn&#39;t seem like the tag loading is asynchronous, it freezes emacs for around a minute.  This also happens multiple times per a session (with the same file, and with other files in the same directory that use the same tag file)!
\n
\n---
\n
\n**Questions**
\n
\n 1. Does anyone know what&#39;s initializing the loading of the tag table for completion and how to disable it?  I did a grep on my emacs.d directory for &quot;Making tag completion&quot; and found nothing (note, IIRC the loading tags was present regardless of using `company` or `auto-complete`
\n 2. Completion would be nice, but I&#39;d settle just for the ability to jump to the tag location.  Is there a way to get this? 
\n 3. What is the mindset to take when approaching problems like this?  I&#39;d like to be able to troubleshoot further on my own next time.

\nThis morning I got around to asking brew to upgrade me to 24.4. Everything seemed to go smoothly, except csharp-mode no longer functions correctly. On opening a .cs file I get this error:
\n

\nI still have 24.3 on my machine and I can open .cs files correctly in that. 
\n
\nUnfortunately csharp mode [seems to be dead][1] - it&#39;s not been touched in a few years. Any help or pointers as to how I can hack this to work would be appreciated.

             (body_markdown . "**TL;DR**: With `find-file-noselect` you have **no control** about what actually happens, and you may end up with arbitrary minor modes enabling in the buffer, depending on what the user enabled in their `init.el`.  Also, cleanup is hard.  
\n
\nUse `with-temp-buffer` and `insert-file-contents` instead.  If you need specific major or minor modes in the buffer, enable them **explicitly**.  To write files, use `with-temp-file` instead, which—despite its name—lets you write to arbitrary files.
\n
\n# Side effects
\n
\n`find-file-noselect` has **a lot** of side-effects, including
\n
\n- interactively asking questions (that alone is a no-go in non-interactive use),
\n- automatically enabling view mode for readonly files,
\n- entering normal mode otherwise,
\n- and running `find-file-hook`.
\n
\nNormal Mode itself 
\n
\n- automatically selects a proper major mode for the current buffer,
\n- runs all corresponding major and minor mode hooks,
\n- and reads all local variables for the current buffer, i.e. file variables and directory variables, which again may ask interactive questions about unsafe local variables.
\n
\nSince all hooks are run, you get **all minor modes and hook functions** the user enabled in their `init.el`, which can cause everything, from minor inconveniences (if undesirable minor modes are enabled) to major havoc (if the user added a hook function that expects to be called from an interactive context).  
\n
\nSee https://github.com/flycheck/flycheck/issues/366 for an example.  The use of `find-file-noselect` caused a data file to be syntax-checked by Flycheck, and since it was happening at Emacs shut-down, there was no time to properly clean up again, leaving a temporary file behind.
\n
\n# Cleanup
\n
\nWith `find-file-noselect` you need to be extra careful to kill the buffer again.  `find-file-noselect` does not do that for you.
\n
\nYou need to remember the buffer at some place, and carefully use `unwind-protect` to make sure that the buffer gets killed even in case of non-local exits.
\n
\n# Alternatives
\n
\nTo read files, use `with-temp-buffer` and `insert-file-contents`, which only does the most basic things, e.g. coding system conversion, but does not ask questions, enable hooks, or setup local variables:
\n
\n    (with-temp-buffer
\n      (insert-file-contents (locate-user-emacs-file &quot;foo.el&quot;))
\n      ;; Enter the major mode explicitly
\n      (emacs-lisp-mode)
\n      ;; …
\n      )
\n
\n`with-temp-buffer` takes care to properly kill the temporary buffer at the end of its body.
\n
\nTo write files, use `with-temp-file`, which creates a temporary buffer and writes the contents to the given file name at the end of its body:
\n
\n    (with-temp-file  (locate-user-emacs-file &quot;foo.el&quot;)
\n      (prin1 (list &#39;my &#39;data) (current-buffer)))")

\n- I find the presentation cleaner than let&#39;s say ido-vertical-mode for example. 
\n- Helm doesn&#39;t have flex matching though.
\n- You don&#39;t need smex, etc. Helm does it all.
\n- The Tu do article is good as it provides some nice animated screenshots of what Helm can do.

\nWhen using magit in Emacs, I know that I should avoid long commit messages, but sometimes they just cannot be avoid. 
\n
\nThe problem is: `(setq-default truncate-lines nil)` which is default setting does not work in **magit: project** buffer(there is a straight right arrow at the end of line) but work in **COMMIT_EDITMSG** buffer, the `(setq-default fill-column 80)` does not work in **COMMIT_EDITMSG** buffer, the `fill-column` value in it is 72 not 80.
\n
\nBut what I really want is: make the `truncate-lines` to `nil` in **magit: project** buffer too so I can see long lines in one window but not break it into several lines, **AND** turn all auto-fill-mode in **COMMIT_EDITMSG** buffer, so long commit messages won&#39;t be broken into several lines when I&#39;m typing.

  (title . "Composing a regexp to highlight folder extensions differently")

  (body_markdown . "I am having difficulties composing a regexp that will highlight certain *folder* extensions -- **including the preceding dot** -- with colors that are different than the rest of the folder -- e.g., `.app` would be colored red; and `.git` would be colored blue.
\n
\nExamples:
\n
\n* The folder `Emacs.app` would be colorized with `Emacs` being a gray color and `.app` would be a red color.
\n
\n* The folder `.0.context-menu.git` would be colorized with `.0.context-menu` being a gray color and `.git` would be a blue color.
\n
\nI have a regexp that gets me from the left margin all the way to the beginning of the folder -- the variable for that regexp is named `folder-listing-before-filename-regexp`.
\n
\nThe problem I am having is that the regex `.*` swallows up the folder extensions.  If I add `[^.]`, that prevents me from using the dot later on with extensions like `.app` and `.git` -- I want the extension to include the dot when colored.
\n
\nThe regexp that leads up to the folder looks like this:
\n
\n    (defvar folder-listing-before-filename-regexp
\n      (concat
\n        &quot;\\\\(^ +d[slrwxt+-]+\\\\)&quot;    ;; 1  permissions
\n        &quot;\\\\(\\s\\\\)&quot;                 ;; 2
\n        &quot;\\\\([0-9]+\\\\|\\s+[0-9]+\\\\)&quot; ;; 3  some small numbers
\n        &quot;\\\\(\\s\\\\)&quot;                 ;; 4
\n        &quot;\\\\([a-zA-Z]+\\\\)&quot;          ;; 5  group
\n        &quot;\\\\(\\s\\\\)&quot;                 ;; 6
\n        &quot;\\\\([a-zA-Z]+\\\\)&quot;          ;; 7  user
\n        &quot;\\\\(\\s\\\\)&quot;                 ;; 8
\n        &quot;\\\\([\\s0-9.kKMGT]+\\\\)&quot;     ;; 9  size
\n        &quot;\\\\(\\s\\\\)&quot;                 ;; 10
\n        &quot;\\\\([0-9-]+\\\\)&quot;            ;; 11 date
\n        &quot;\\\\(\\s\\\\)&quot;                 ;; 12
\n        &quot;\\\\([0-9:]+\\\\)&quot;            ;; 13 time

\n
\nI love the concept of `imenu` (esp. when integrated with `helm`) and I think it has great potential to improve my workflow...assuming I learn how to correctly set definitions for `imenu` categories.  
\n
\nAs a simplified example, let&#39;s say that I&#39;d like to add a few definitions to my `init` file&#39;s `imenu` which would be useful when making updates - namely, the list of imported packages.
\n
\nLet&#39;s consider the following three lines as the code we want to parse (purely illustrative; my `init` file doesn&#39;t actually have an explicit line for importing `dired` and `electric`):
\n
\n    (defconst dc/default-directory &quot;/path/to/directory&quot;)
\n    (use-package dired)
\n    (use-package electric)
\n
\nIn order to extract the constants and package names in `imenu`, I&#39;ve included the code below in my `init.el` file.  This code works BUT only after I manually `eval` the second line, (i.e., the second `setq` statement below).
\n
\n    (setq dc-additions &#39;((&quot;Imported packages&quot; &quot;.*(use-package \\\\(.*\\\\))*&quot; 1)
\n    		             (&quot;Defined constants&quot; &quot;.*(defconst \\\\(.*\\\\))*&quot;    1)))
\n    (setq imenu-generic-expression (copy-sequence `(,@dc-additions ,@imenu-generic-expression)))
\n    (add-hook &#39;emacs-lisp-mode &#39;imenu-generic-expression)
\n
\nIf I don&#39;t manually evaluate the second step, the `imenu` list shows only the default definitions.  However, after I `eval` the second statement above, the `imenu` list correctly include includes items based on my definition.
\n
\nHow can I force evaluation of the second statement?  In other words, what can I do to to ensure that `imenu` will automatically consider items based on my definition?

\nYou may find that **Thorsten Jolitz**&#39;s [`org-dp`](https://github.com/tj64/org-dp) library will aid you such efforts.  My understanding (I haven&#39;t used `org-dp`) is that `org-dp` is a meant to make it easer for to use &quot;lisp representation&quot; to create new &quot;Org syntax representation&quot; (as this it not a goal of `org-element` per se).
\n
\nFor further clarification [`gmane.emacs.orgmode`][4] is really the appropriate forum.
