    <p>I've decided to rewrite my .emacs from the ground up, and I want to setup something that's modular, in order to avoid a dreaded 1k+ LoC init.el file...</p> <p>I think there are some basic concerns that each configuration needs to address :</p> <ul> <li>global options</li> <li>editing functions</li> <li>navigation (frames &amp; buffers)</li> <li>keybindings</li> <li>modes customizations</li> </ul> <p>While I'm still tying to think the structure through, I'm looking for some pointers on how to achieve this.<br> I've looked at some .emacs on github and such, and there seems to be deifferent approaches, and no preferred way to go with this, which is a bit confusing.<br> I would be interested in reading some ideas regarding how to structure such a setup, and especially some related elisp code.</p> <hr> <p>edit : Been caught up with things, and haven't had much time to play with this yet. Will try out the proposed methods in a few days, and see what's best, meanwhile thanks for all the recommendations !</p> <hr> <p>edit2 : I've been using a <a href="http://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/babel/intro.php#literate-programming" rel="noreferrer">literate init file with org-mode</a>, and this is absolutely terrific !<br> I 'm not yet set on a specific load mechanism, I've been using this code, to recursively load my elisp directory, then require or whatever the setup instructions say. </p> <pre><code> (if (fboundp 'normal-top-level-add-subdirs-to-load-path) (let* ((my-lisp-dir "~/.emacs.d/elisp/") (default-directory my-lisp-dir)) (setq load-path (cons my-lisp-dir load-path)) (normal-top-level-add-subdirs-to-load-path))) </code></pre> <p>I still need to polish this, maybe using autoload, and some byte-recompile if modified tricks ; would love to hear suggestions on that.</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
