The configuration assumes that the packages listed below are installed. To
ensure we install missing packages if they are missing.

(packages
'()))
(when (memq window-system '(mac ns))
(push 'exec-path-from-shell packages)
(push 'reveal-in-osx-finder packages))

* Mac OS X
I run this configuration mostly on Mac OS X, so we need a couple of settings
to make things work smoothly. In the package section =exec-path-from-shell=
is included (only if you're running OS X), this is to include
environment-variables from the shell. It makes using Emacs along with
external processes a lot simpler. I also prefer using the =Command=-key as
the =Meta=-key.
I run this configuration mostly on macOS, so we need a couple of settings to
make things work smoothly. I use the =Command=-key as the =Meta=-key, Freeing
up the =Option=-key, which I need for typing Norwegian characters on a US
keyboard. In addition, it is more comfortable.
I try to minimize the use of frames. The native compilation gives a lot of
warnings, but they seem safe to ignore.

The package [[https://github.com/purcell/exec-path-from-shell][exec-path-from-shell]] synchronizes environment variables from the
shell to Emacs. This makes it a lot easier to deal with external programs on
macOS.

I had some problems with Dired, and this seems to have solved it. I /think/
the solutions was from [[https://stackoverflow.com/questions/4076360/error-in-dired-sorting-on-os-x][here]], and my problems were related, but not the same.

It is useful to be able to occasionally open the file associated with a
buffer in macOS Finder.
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(use-package reveal-in-osx-finder
:if (memq window-system '(mac ns)))
#+end_src
#+RESULTS:
* Sane defaults
These are what /I/ consider to be saner defaults.
