Users of the popular [[https://github.com/justbur/emacs-which-key][which-key]] package may prefer to use the =embark-which-key-indicator= from the [[https://github.com/oantolin/embark/wiki/Additional-Configuration#use-which-key-like-a-key-menu-prompt][Embark wiki]]. Just copy its definition from the wiki into your configuration and customize the =embark-indicators= user option to exclude the mixed and verbose indicators and to include =embark-which-key-indicator=.

In other words, typing ~s-;~ to call Embark, specifies the options in a buffer, but the following code puts them in a smaller configuration directly above the selections.

Doom introduced me to [[https://github.com/hlissner/evil-snipe][evil-snipe]] which is similar to =f= and =t=, but does two characters, and can, when configured, search more than the current line. When I use it, I stop and analyze to see the two characters to work on, so Ive changed from the default, single ~s~, to ~g s~ so as not to get it confused with the =evil-surround=.
