I would love to be able to have custom Spacemacs distributions available via `nix-shell` as a way to gently introduce folks at work to reliable, complete, IDE-like command-line editor experiences...

Yeah, but every user only has one ~/.emacs.d directory. The difficulty I anticipate isn't in making that feature happen, but the more general difficulty of packaging Spacemacs in a natural...

Ah, okay. It's okay; I'm very new to emacs and should probably read more before I go posting about it on GitHub anyway. I confused myself by reading some documentation...

I can anticipate some concerns about portability, but I can imagine that this might have some performance benefits, given `rg`'s performance in general. I always have ripgrep installed on all...

Check this out: 'stable' Nix (2.18.2) doesn't know how to open a flake repl in a devenv repo, but the Nix whose store path ends in `-devenv` that shows up...
