Configuration

To see all the configurable settings in voca-builder, type

M-x customize-group [RET] voca-builder [RET]

and you are able to customise these variables directly. However, the recommended way to do is to add the non-interactive way.

The important variables are:

voca-builder/voca-file

where you wanna to save the new vocabulary and their meanings to, the default is ~/.vocabulary

voca-builder/current-tag

which tags should added to the vocabulary nodes. The default is “GENE” (general).

voca-builder/export-file

where to save the exported vocabularies.

The following is a sample.

(setq voca-builder/voca-file "~/git/Learning/Emacs_Voca/voca_example.org")
(setq voca-builder/current-tag "Demo")
(setq voca-builder/export-file "~/voca-builder-temp.org")

I read all the time and frequently confront words that I am not familiar with, so I bind the keystroke F4 to shows the meaning quickly.

(global-set-key (kbd "<f4>") 'voca-builder/search-popup)
