I've been switching to Emacs packages which are lighter and use the internal Emacs system,
instead of creating their own. This time I wanted to try
Flymake, the syntax checker that comes with Emacs. At
first it wasn't very appealing because I thought it would only show the error on mouse hover! So I tried to see what options I
have for displaying the error messages when text cursor moves over them.
Recently I forked the flycheck-raku (by @widefox) to the Raku GitHub organization.
And did some improvements to it and published it on melpa, so others can easily install and update it.
For those who don't know, flycheck is a tool for syntax checking Gnu Emacs buffers.
You can install flycheck-raku using use-package:
(use-package flychek-raku :ensure t)
Previously if you used flycheck-raku
on a project, it would show errors on use SomeModule;
,
even though the module was in the lib
directory of the project. And this would make flycheck
kinda
useless, because it wouldn't show further errors.
