#+TITLE: Archive — Retired Modules
#+AUTHOR: Craig Jennings
* What this is
The pasture upstate. Modules that were once part of the config but are no
longer loaded, kept here instead of deleted so they can be read, mined for
ideas, or brought back later.
Nothing in this directory is on the Emacs =load-path=, and nothing in the
active config requires anything here. Retiring a file means moving it here and
removing whatever orphaned reference kept pointing at it. Restoring one means
moving it back to =modules/= or =custom/= and re-adding its =require= (or
=use-package=) in =init.el=.
The directory is tracked in git, so every retired file stays retrievable from
history even after it moves again.
* The rule this directory enforces
Every =.el= file *outside* this directory should be of active use — required,
loaded, or otherwise reached by the running config. If a file is never touched,
loaded, or referenced, it belongs here. The candidate list is generated by a
reachability sweep from =init.el= (transitive =require= closure), then checked
by hand for the cases pure requires miss: =use-package= with =:load-path=,
autoloads, and vendored copies shadowed by a package-manager install.
* Layout
Retired files keep their origin directory so a restore is a straight move back:
- =archive/modules/= — retired first-party modules
- =archive/custom/= — retired vendored third-party files
- =archive/tests/= — tests belonging to retired modules
- =archive/gptel/= — the gptel feature subtree, retired as a unit
* Inventory
** archive/modules/
- =show-kill-ring.el= — kill-ring viewer bound to M-S-k. Its =require= was
dropped in b785a19d and consult-yank-pop covers the same need. Retiring it
also removed the orphaned M-K -> M-S-k translation in =keyboard-compat.el=,
which had been leaving M-K a dead key.
- =duet-config.el= — no reference anywhere in the config.
- =mu4e-org-contacts-setup.el= — nothing requires it; its featurep gate would
be nil at init in any case. The live mu4e contacts wiring lives in
=mu4e-org-contacts-integration.el=.
** archive/custom/
- =eplot.el= — vendored plotting package, unreferenced.
- =profile-dotemacs.el= — startup-profiling tool, unreferenced.
- =titlecase.el= + =titlecase-data.el= — the duckwork/titlecase.el package,
superseded by =custom-case.el='s own =cj/title-case-region=.
- =edit-indirect.el= — a vendored copy of the MELPA package that
=text-config.el= installs (its =use-package= carries no =:ensure nil=). With
this copy off the =load-path=, the MELPA copy loads, which is the intended
one.
** archive/gptel/
The gptel AI-assistant feature, retired as a whole subtree (modules, tests,
tools, custom, and its spec docs) when the config moved off gptel.
