I'm mostly a C developer that spend most of my time inside Emacs.

I use ivy-mode instead of ido-mode, and avy instead of ace-jump. My setup includes yasnippet, flycheck, company, and ggtags mostly.

I have issues using the number keys. So I use a custom vi like mode, but heavily customized: Pressing spacebar results in "_" ("-" in #include), but intelligently. Double space results in "->", ".." results in (|) (where | is the cursor or point) and ",," results in "=".

Pressing spacebar after "(" results in "&", then "*" (also "!" if just after "if" or "while"). And my capslock key is just another control key.

All the examples above are to be assumed without quotes.

Just curious.. How do you type-in whitespace?

[pksadiq]

spacebar results in "_" only when the cursor is immediately after [a-zA-Z0-9_]. And if I really need space, I have Shift-Space. Also, pressing spacebar after a keyword (like char, int, if, else, etc) results in real space.
