11:14 <rcorrear> Hi adisbladis

11:15 <rcorrear> I just made a (wrong) comment in GitHub about emacs-overlay not supporting macOS

11:15 <rcorrear> Sorry for that. I just installed it and it seems to work very well!

11:15 <rcorrear> I had a couple of questions related to how the instructions for installing could be (if needed) adapted to work on macOS

11:17 <rcorrear> Since (AFAIK) there's no /etc/nixos/configuration.nix equivalent in macOS people will most likely be using $HOME/.nixpkgs/config.nix

11:18 <rcorrear> But that file will be replacing the values of nixpkgs.config so it's not gonna work for settings nixpkgs.overlays

11:19 <rcorrear> Am I right so far? Mind you, I'm using nixpkgs for a couple weeks now and it's a bit hard to understand how it all fits

11:49 <alexarice[m]> Ricardo: I have never used macOS but on nixos you can put overlays in $HOME/nixpkgs/overlays.nix (I think this is the correct file) and I believe this should work on non nixos

11:50 <alexarice[m]> https://nixos.wiki/wiki/Overlays

11:50 <alexarice[m]> should be $HOME/.config/nixpkgs/overlays.nix

11:51 <alexarice[m]> perhaps https://nixos.org/nixpkgs/manual/#sec-overlays-lookup is also helpful?

12:05 <rcorrear> Cool, I'll have a look there as well, thanks alexarice !

14:28 <butterthebuddha> I'm not sure how to use the emacs overlay with nix

14:28 <butterthebuddha> apologies for the stupid question, but I'm really new to nix
