This is basically just a collection of various commands I discovered while learning to use Doom Emacs. All Sources will be listed at the bottom of this page.

Also. This side does not provide a lot of explanation regarding the function of the commands. It is just intended as a cheat sheet. Updates/ Changes will be added to this post.

Navigation

Workspaces

  • switch between workspaces: ‘SPC TAB .
  • load workspace: ‘SPC TAB l
  • create new workspace: ‘SPC TAB n
  • rename workspace: ‘SPC TAB r
  • save workspace: ‘SPC TAB s
  • select project for workspace: ‘SPC p p

File Switching inside Workspaces

  • switch to file within current project: ‘SPC SPC
    • SPC .’ provides the save functionality but can also search outside the current project
  • switch to buffer within current project: ‘SPC ,
  • switch to a buffer outside the current project: ‘SPC b B
  • load recently viewed file: ‘SPC fr

Finding Text

  • search all files in the current project: ‘SPC sp
  • search inside the current buffer: ‘/’ (normal Vim navigation)

Moving to Text

  • jump to line (faster then relative line numbers): ‘gsj
  • s’ and two chars to jump to the nearest match
    • S’ to jump backwards
    • ,’ or ‘;’ to cycle through the matches (forwards/ backwards)

NOTE: this navigation can be combined with (almost) all of the standard Vim commands (e.g. ‘vs\<chars\>’ visualizes all the text to the nearest match for \<chars\>)

Source Code

  • go to definition: ‘gd
  • list references: ‘gD

Fancy Delete

NOTE: all these commands should also work for ‘change’ ('c')

  • delete inside the same indent (e.g. function of if statement): ‘dii
  • delete inside the same indent + line above (e.g. complete if statement in python): ‘dik
  • delete inside the same indent + line above and below (e.g. complete if statement in java): ‘dij

Compilation Errors

  • next and previous flycheck error: ‘\]e’ and ‘\[e
  • list current errors: ‘SPC c x

Miscellaneous

  • compile: ‘SPC p c
  • open Magit: ‘SPC gg
  • comment/ uncomment a line: ‘gcc
