Please DO NOT require hydra about lispy HOT 5 CLOSED

Going to take a bit of a different stance: I personally like the experimental features and aggressive changes and fast development pace. If I don't like a particular feature, I'll modify them. I'd like to keep Hydra and see what it can bring.

from lispy.

I have the same opinion: lispy is very far from stable. I keep trying new ideas; some of
them work, some of them don't work. But to get the really good ones I have to try a lot of
new ideas.

Besides, (require 'hydra) does absolutely nothing to modify the behavior of your Emacs.
It just defines a couple of macros and nothing is done unless the user calls these macros
in her config. What I did so far, was to make the previously unbound z into a
Hydra. No other behaviors were changed. But you should expect that x will
become a Hydra eventually, possibly with current behavior as a fallback through a custom
var.

Note that this is completely different from the currently very popular evil package which
installs and enables undo-tree even when evil-mode is not on.

If you like to be conservative, you can stick to stable versions of lispy.
Each time I release a new version, I list the user-visible changes, so that you can modify
them if you want in your own config.

Btw, here's my personal config; I don't just merge it into lispy willy-nilly:

(use-package lispy
    :load-path "~/git/lispy"
    :init
    (progn
      (define-key lispy-mode-map (kbd "φ") 'lispy-parens)
      (define-key lispy-mode-map (kbd "σ") 'lispy-braces)
      (define-key lispy-mode-map (kbd "ρ") 'lispy-brackets)
      (define-key lispy-mode-map (kbd "θ") 'lispy-quotes)
      (define-key lispy-mode-map (kbd "C-φ") 'lispy-parens-down)
      (define-key lispy-mode-map (kbd "χ") 'lispy-right)
      (define-key lispy-mode-map (kbd "C-M-a") 'lispy-beginning-of-defun)
      (define-key lispy-mode-map (kbd "C-x C-j") 'lispy-debug-step-in)
      (define-key lispy-mode-map (kbd "C-8") nil)
      (define-key lispy-mode-map (kbd "C-9") nil)
      (define-key lispy-mode-map (kbd "<return>") 'lispy-alt-line)
      (define-key lispy-mode-map (kbd "RET") 'lispy-newline-and-indent-plain)
      (define-key lispy-mode-map (kbd "C-M-h") 'lispy-backward)
      (setq lispy-helm-columns '(1 46 51 80))
      (setq lispy-no-permanent-semantic t)
      (set-face-background 'lispy-command-name-face "#d8d8f7")))

Please push stable version of lispy to http://stable.melpa.org/packages/ so I can install it using package.el.

from lispy.

It's already there at http://stable.melpa.org/#/lispy.

from lispy.

Sorry, I didn't see it in the *Packages* buffer after installing it but I can get it at http://stable.melpa.org/packages/ , it turns out, if you've already installed it, there will not be another one from other repo, I have to remove the installed one and refresh the buffer.

BTW, if it is possible, please do not put it into lispy stable version, I know hydra won't do a thing or modify the behavior of my Emacs unless I call it manually. The thins is, if I got something in my disk but I never use it, I will just delete it, but if I delete hydra, the hydra will be downloaded again once I update lispy.
