[![MELPA](http://melpa.org/packages/focus-badge.svg)](http://melpa.org/#/focus) # Focus Focus provides `focus-mode` that dims the text of surrounding sections, similar to [iA Writer's](https://ia.net/writer) Focus Mode. ## Installation You can install Focus using elpa. It's available on [melpa](http://melpa.milkbox.net/): M-x package-install focus The package has only been tried on Emacs 24.4 and 24.5, but should work on Emacs 24 or higher. ## Usage Enable the `focus-mode` with M-x focus-mode . Also, `focus-read-only-mode` is provided, which is optimized for continuous reading. It inhibits change in the buffer, hides the cursor and provides bindings for moving between *things* (defined in [Thing At Point](http://emacswiki.org/emacs/ThingAtPoint). One can toggle `focus-read-only-mode` with M-x focus-read-only-mode or C-c C-q if `focus-mode` is enabled. Some bindings are provided for simple navigation and exiting `focus-read-only-mode`.
