emacs

This includes the emacs configuration I use on a few OS X machines. It is focused on Haskell development tools, and personalized to my tastes.

The file is structured using outshine for quick navigation and editing as an org buffer.

All packages should be automatically installed from MELPA if they are not already installed.

gpg-agent

Some sketchy work to getting gpg-agent to work nicely on OS X so that one can work with encrypted files without repeatedly entering a password.

After launchctl starts the gpg-agent daemon, you will need to, export $(cat ~/.gpg-agent-info) to get the shell environment configured correctly.

You will also need to make sure the use-agent line is uncommented in ~/.gnupg/gpg.conf.

The agent is configured to use a custom pinentry program that invokes emacsclient for password entry. Compile the program, ghc Main.hs -o hpinentry, in the pinentry directory for this to work.

The reason for the custom pinentry program is that, normally, when you try to use gpg at the terminal, a full-window PIN entry UI opens up. This doesn't work from within emacs, so you need to do it at the terminal, then do whatever you were going to do in emacs, and you won't need to supply your password thanks to the agent.
