Hi,

I've found this on Sacha Chua's weekly Emacs News. WebDAV is used by
Nextcloud, too, so this sounded like a cool way to interface with
Nextcloud Files in the future.

I wanted to try your FastMail config (I also have a FastMail account)
but the `cambalache-list-contents' command aborts because no
authentication has been set up.

Could you add a line or two to the README about how to do that? 

Thanks!
Christian

One more thing:

`dired-move-to-filename' is apparently called after most (all?)
selection and movement commands, so maybe we could figure out to advise
this function instead. Doing it right now will result in a stack
overflow of sorts because the preview calls `dired-move-to-filename',
too.

Another suggestion would be to grep for all callers of this function in

This would be the ideal, but dired.el doesn't notify "interested parties"
when the selected line changes. There's no hook, for some reason. This
could be a useful addition upstream in the Emacs source code, but at the
moment, we're stuck with key rebindings.

Hi Prot,

Great to hear to iterate on the peep-dired package! (I'm a happy user.)

I found that rebinding the dired keys composed worse than hooks; with
hooks, you can preview whichever file point is on easily. With rebinding
keys, you would need to account for a lot of special cases.

I documented the issue here in 2020:
https://github.com/asok/Peep-dired/issues/18

So my suggestion would be to make similar adjustments to:
https://git.sr.ht/~protesilaos/dired-preview/tree/main/item/dired-preview.el#L283-288

Oh, that makes sense!

Is there a way for you to detect this and emit a warning? Could be a compilation warning, or also a simple message during theme loading. That'd help debug issues like that because then users at least know why it's not working, and can fall back to copy-pasting the hex codes and leave a comment.

Cheers,
Christian

Seems to work fine, thanks!

Alright 👍

Hi Prot :)

The common palette overrides and changing how color "pointers" work is
great. I got to a point where I tweaked the mode-line to be borderless
and notices that inheriting the colors doesn't work as I expected after
reading the docs.

Here's a mimimal example:

First, re-wire the 'bg-mode-line-active' color reference for all themes:

  (customize-set-variable 'modus-themes-common-palette-overrides
                          `((bg-mode-line-active bg-inactive)))
