Subject: Abbrevs for the most frequent elisp symbols
Date: Fri, 19 Dec 2014 19:58:58 +0000 (UTC) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <loom.20141219T204835-349@post.gmane.org> (raw)
The other day it occurred to me I could use simple abbrevs for
elisp programming, but defining these manually is tiresome, so
I did some automation.
1. I collected all elisp symbols from the manual
2. Generated abbrevs for those which have multiple parts in the
name from the first letters (e.g. goto-char -> gc)
3. There can be collisions (e.g. gc maps to both goto-char and
garbage-collect), so I collected the usage statistics of all
elisp symbols from the emacs lisp sources and in case of a
collision I used that one which occurs more frequently (in the
above case: goto-char).
The result is an automated abbrev table for elisp symbols based
on frequency. So, for example, you can use wcb for
with-current-buffer, bol for beginning-of-line, mb for
match-beginning, etc.
Here's the list of abbrevs, you can try it in a buffer:

The idea is trivial, so probably somebody has done something like
this already, but I thought I'd share it in case someone else
finds it useful.
