This is my collection of vim, tmux, and zsh configurations.
First, you may want to backup any existing files that exist so this doesn't overwrite your work.
First, clone the dotfiles repository to your computer. This can be placed anywhere, and symbolic links will be created to reference it from your home directory.
➜ git clone https://github.com/Atlas34/dotfiles.git ~/.dotfiles
➜ cd ~/.dotfiles
➜ ./install.shThe install script will install all symbolic links into your home directory. Every file with a .symlink extension will be symlinked to the home directory with a . in front of it. As an example, vimrc.symlink will be symlinked in the home directory as ~/.vimrc.
ZSH is configured in the zshrc.symlink file, which will be symlinked to the home directory. The following occurs in this file:
Vim is likely already installed on your system.
link.sh will symlink the XDG configuration directory into your home directory and will then create symlinks for .vimrc and .vim.
Inside of .zshrc, the EDITOR shell variable is set to vim, defaulting to vim for editor tasks, such as git commit messages.
vim should just work once the correct plugins are installed. To install the plugins, you will need to open vim in the following way:
➜ vim +PlugInstallThe font script will retrieve and install Powerline fonts
Tmux is a terminal multiplexor which lets you create windows and splits in the terminal that you can attach and detach from. I use it to keep multiple projects open in separate windows and to create an IDE-like environment to work in where I can have my code open in vim and a shell open to run tests/scripts. Tmux is configured in ~/.tmux.conf, and in tmux/theme.sh, which defines the colors used, the layout of the tmux bar.
