Below are instructions to configure EXWM under an Arch-based distribution ie. Emacs as your window manager. Blocks are automatically tangled on save from this very document. To see the complete tangling parameters, consider browsing the raw version of this file.
The instructions assume you have a working Linux distribution in the first place.
Enable Emacs in the list of eligible window managers.
[Desktop Entry]
Comment=Emacs X Window Manager

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.peripherals.keyboard delay 200
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.peripherals.keyboard repeat-interval 20
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences audible-bell falseEdit ~/.config/zoomus.conf to disable the automatic mini-view since it will
eventually mess up your current window configuration.
-enableMiniWindow=true
+enableMiniWindow=false
