I'm trying to get started using Icicles, but I'm wondering if ido is interfering with functionality. So far:
I installed Icicles from the repo and added
(require 'icicles)to
init.el.I used
M-xcustomizeto turn offido, resulting in'(ido-mode nil nil (ido))in the
custom-set-variablessection ofinit.el.Restarted Emacs.
Now, running C-h c C-x C-f gives me the result of
C-x C-fruns the commandido-find-file
However, the EmacsWiki page on Icicles says this command should have been automatically remapped to icicle-file. There are some other functions that also don't seem to be working. By contrast, though, C-h c M-x results in
M-xruns the commandicicle-execute-extended-command
How do I fix this?
emacs -Qand loading Icicles. IfC-x C-fis bound toido-find-filethen you clearly have not removed Ido from the equation. And maybe try using the Customize UI, instead of fiddling with code in your init file. – Drew Nov 6 '14 at 21:57ido-find-filebeing remapped toicicle-file. – Drew Nov 6 '14 at 21:59icomplete-mode), if you want some Ido-like behavior with Icicles. – Drew Nov 6 '14 at 22:24emacs -Qand turned onicy-modeand found thatC-x C-fwas now bound toicicle-fileso I guessidois still somehow not fully disabled, as you suspected. Here's the page I was referencing, which contains this: "...commandfind-file, is by default remapped in Icicle mode to multi-commandicicle-file. Remapping means that any keys, such asC-x C-f, that would normally be bound tofind-fileare instead bound toicicle-filewhen you are in Icicle mode." – Steven Arntson Nov 7 '14 at 3:34
