Buttery smooth emacs animations (macos only) https://gfycat.com/secondaryconcreteflies By using the little known magic of `(mac-start-animation)` from the emacs-mac fork, you can animate buffer and window transitions. A little more detail here: link to this video See https://bitbucket.org/mituharu/emacs-mac/src/master/ and https://github.com/railwaycat/homebrew-emacsmacport Is there a way to do this in other windowing systems easily (e.g. X11)?
