This is my GNU Emacs 25.1 initialization file now moved from ~/.emacs to ~/.emacs.d/init.el, in the process adding many new features and customizations from MELPA packages.
Not a lot more to add really, feel free to use bits or all of it as you see fit, it contains the elisp code I've found the most useful over the years (I've been using emacs for a long time), together with recently discovered gems from the MELPA package archives.
“Don’t get set into one form, adapt it and build your own, and let it grow, be like Emacs. Empty your mind, be formless, shapeless — like Emacs. If you put Emacs in a cup it becomes the cup, if you put it into a bottle it becomes the bottle. You put Emacs into a teapot it becomes the teapot. Now, Emacs can flow or it can crash. Be Emacs, my friend.”
