The preview feature of consult can be helpful at times. Let's see how
many functions I want to replace.

*** Consult
The [[https://github.com/minad/consult][consult project]] aims to use the libraries like [[*Vertico][Vertico]] to enhance specific, built-in, Emacs functions. I particularly appreciate the feature that when selecting an element in the minibuffer, it displays what you are looking at… for instance, it previews a buffer before choosing it. Unlike /Vertico/ and /Orderless/, you need to bind keys to its special functions (or rebind existing keys that do something similar).
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(use-package consult
:after general
;; Enable automatic preview at point in the *Completions* buffer. This is
;; relevant when you use the default completion UI.
:hook (completion-list-mode . consult-preview-at-point-mode)
:init
;; Use Consult to select xref locations with preview
(setq xref-show-xrefs-function #'consult-xref
xref-show-definitions-function #'consult-xref)
:config
(define-key evil-normal-state-map (kbd "g p") 'consult-yank-pop)
(define-key evil-normal-state-map (kbd "g s") 'consult-line)
;; And some leader keys since that seems to be the only place I remember:
(ha-leader
"RET" '("bookmark" . consult-bookmark)
"o i" '("imenu" . consult-imenu)
"x y" '("preview yank" . consult-yank-pop)))

*** Consult for Projects
One of the reasons that Consult hasn’t been too important to me, is that I often narrow my searching based on projectile. So let’s see what the [[https://gitlab.com/OlMon/consult-projectile][consult-projectile]] can offer.
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(use-package consult-projectile
:after consult general
:straight (consult-projectile :type git :host gitlab :repo "OlMon/consult-projectile" :branch "master")
:config
(ha-leader
"p ." '("switch to..." . consult-projectile)
"b b" '("switch buffer" . consult-projectile-switch-to-buffer)
"p p" '("switch project" . consult-projectile-switch-project)
"p f" '("find file" . consult-projectile-find-file)
"p r" '("find recent file" . consult-projectile-recentf)))
#+END_SRC
The advantage of [[help:persp-switch-to-buffer][persp-switch-to-buffer]] over =consult-projectile-switch-to-buffer= is that is shows non-file buffers.
*** Embark
The [[https://github.com/oantolin/embark/][embark]] project offers /actions/ on /targets/, however, I'm primarily thinking of acting on selected items in the minibuffer, however, they actually act anywhere. Consequently, I need an easy-to-use keybinding that doesn't conflict. Hey, that is what the Super key is for, right?
