I haven't had time to upgrade emacs in awhile. Still running 25.2
Did you try removing the elc and reinstalling?
If I get some time I might look into it.
I found the problem. The version in ELPA is out of date: it's ergoemacs-mode-5.14.7.3. Would it be possible for you to update the version in ELPA?
(By the way, installing ergoemacs-mode from ELPA also causes the same bug in Emacs 25.1.1. I hadn't noticed this before because I had downloaded the package manually from Github instead.)
Also, on a side note, I don't see any way to contribute financially to this project, though I would like to.
Thanks @eawayman
There was a way to update elpa.
Unfortunately, its been a such a long time since I updated ergoemacs-mode
I have forgotten how. I think I might have to contact the emacs maintainer to figure out how to. I have even forgotten who it is right now. I remember it changed, though.
I was hoping to fix up all the bugs and make it pass all the tests I made for it, but I haven't found the time for that either.
I also don't know how to setup somthing for financial contributions to the project, though that would be possibly useful and attract someone to help the project.
I would be more interested in having anyone help with the project, since I seem to have less time for this than I would like.
Even someone who would update elpa for me would be useful.
Thanks for your response! I will look into how to update the project on ELPA and see if I can update it myself. I'll get back to you with those results as soon as I have them.
I e-mailed the GNU Emacs co-maintainer, Eli Zaretskii, asking how I can update the package in ELPA, and he told me to e-mail the emacs-devel mailing list, so the maintainers of ELPA would see the message and respond. I did so three days ago but have not heard back from anyone.
The fact that I couldn't easily find out who to contact about this, and that after following the recommendations still no one has contacted me, does not bode well for ELPA. I think we should just forget about upgrading the package on ELPA, at least for the time being. It looks like many Emacs users are relying on MELPA these days anyway, and the version in MELPA is up-to-date.
Stefan Monnier updated it I think....
They gave me read/write access to ELPA but I have forgotten how to access it.
He responded a few hours after I wrote my last comment here. I guess I should have been a little more patient. You can see his response at https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2018-08/msg00186.html .
He would like you to, from now on, push the changes to elpa.git
as well as this Github repository. Maybe you could e-mail him for details if what he wrote in the post I linked doesn't make sense.
He is also asking in that post for you to synchronize the changes he has made to ergoemacs-mode
in elpa.git
to the main Github repository. Would it be possible for you to do that?
I just tried upgrading from elpa and I can't run ergoemacs-mode. I'm unsure if I want to use Stephan's changes.
Was there ever an update to this? I am also unable to use ergoemacs layout in 26.1 on windows; would be happy to contribute to the project financially
I spent about an hour trying to figure out this. Currently the best solution is to use ergoemacs-mode on github.
Its the second request for funding support, so I need to set something up.
hi Matt, on the front page, i think it's proper to put your name first. Me and David Capello second. (i haven't checked with David but i think he probably agrees.) Also, if you setup paypal or patreon, i'd share the post. (though, am not sure there's much money, but still.)
Thanks @xahlee . I need to have a higher priority for this. Cant find the time right now.
Reopen if you have issues on the new github version
When I install from ELPA and start Emacs with
--debug-init
, I get the following:
