Re: Just an uninformed question

Hi Stefan,

+/- correct. I want to explore how difficult it would be to _add_ the possibility

of customising eglot with a JSON file in the user-emacs directory. A newbie

learning Emacs Lisp might not find it easy to configure eglot with it and, thus,

may be "tempted away" from it. The idea should be to make it easier for people

to access cool features, not to shy them away because they need a level of

ELisp knowledge they don't have (yet).

Just my .2 cents from trying to attract people to Emacs,

Sorry, I don't understand what are you proposing.  Do you want to
customize Emacs/eglot in JSON instead of in Emacs Lisp?

Could you please clarify?
