dotfiles

dotfiles copied to clipboard

This repository contains a dotfiles setup that suits me.

One nice thing with my dotfiles is that most lines are well documented. Additionally I've tried to unbloat it in recent years (2021 and 2022).

Getting started

# Install basic software I use daily.
sudo apt-get install git vim zsh

# Ok, now we can get the dotfiles...
git clone https://github.com/Tarrasch/dotfiles.git

# Set up git config
git config --global core.excludesfile ~/.gitignore-global
git config --global core.pager 'less -+$LESS -R'

# Fix fonts for vim-airline (more info below)
# 2022 update: unclear if necessary.
fc-cache -vf ~/.fonts

# Set keyboard layout to colemak on the "system level".
sudo dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration


# Now we can run ./.run.sh
cd ~/dotfiles
./symlink_dotfiles.sh

Now reopen a new terminal

# Install zsh plugins
zplug install

# Set layout if it's not set.
unikey_and_colemak.sh try_reset_2

Other tasks:

• Install Solarized. Link
• chsh --shell /usr/bin/zsh (Requires re-login!)
• In personal computers, generate ssh keys
