Toggle Line Spacing Command

Here's a command that lets you toggle line spacing between 2 values.

This is useful for switching between reading source code and reading novels. 〔see Emacs: Novel Reading Mode 📜〕

put this in your Emacs Init File:

(defun xah-toggle-line-spacing ()
  "Toggle line spacing between no extra space to extra half line height.

  (interactive)
  (if line-spacing
      (setq line-spacing nil)
    (setq line-spacing 0.5))
  (redraw-frame (selected-frame)))
