Transient user interfaces for various modes
Commentary

Casual is a collection of opinionated Transient-based keyboard driven user
interfaces for various built-in modes.

Casual is organized into different user interface (UI) libraries tuned for
different modes. Different user interfaces for the following modes are
supported:

- Agenda (Elisp library: `casual-agenda.el')
  An interface for Org Agenda to help you plan your day.

- Bookmarks (Elisp library: `casual-bookmarks.el')
  An interface for editing your bookmark collection.

- Calc (Elisp library: `casual-calc.el')
  An interface for Emacs Calc, an embarrasingly feature-rich calculator.

- Calendar (Elisp library: `casual-calendar.el')
  An interface for the built-in calendar and diary of Emacs.

- Compile (Elisp library: `casual-compile.el')
  An interface for the output of the `compile' and Grep commands.

- Dired (Elisp library: `casual-dired.el')
  An interface for the venerable file manager Dired.

- EditKit (Elisp library: `casual-editkit.el')
  A cornucopia of interfaces for the different editing features (e.g.
  marking, copying, killing, duplicating, transforming, deleting) of Emacs.
  Included are interfaces for rectangle, register, macro, and project
  commands.

- Elisp (Elisp library: `casual-elisp.el')
  An interface for `emacs-lisp-mode'. It provides a menu for commands useful
  for Elisp development.

  An interface for Eshell, a shell-like command interpreter implemented in
  Emacs Lisp.

  navigating references in it.

- IBuffer (Elisp library: `casual-ibuffer.el')
  An interface to Emacs IBuffer, a mode designed for managing buffers.

- Image (Elisp library: `casual-image.el')
  An interface for viewing an image file with `image-mode'.
  Resizing an image is supported if ImageMagick 6 or 7 is installed. This
  interface deviates significantly with naming conventions used by
  `image-mode' to be more in alignment with conventional image editing tools.

  An interface to `Man-mode', the Emacs Man page reader.

- Re-Builder (Elisp library: `casual-re-builder.el')
  An interface for the Emacs regular expression tool.

- Timezone (Elisp library: `casual-timezone.el')

INSTALLATION

Users can choose any or all of the user interfaces made available by Casual
at their pleasure.

Configuration of a particular Casual user interface is performed per mode.
For details, refer to the Info node `(casual) Install'.

Casual relies on the latest stable release of `transient' which may differ
from the version that is preinstalled as a built-in. By b default, `package.el'
will not upgrade a built-in package. Set the customizable variable
`package-install-upgrade-built-in' to `t' to override this. For more details,
please refer to the "Install" section on this project's repository web page.
