UwUnyaa’s dotfiles

This repository contains some of my dotfiles. Certain ones make no sense to be contained within this repo, for example suckless software.

The following scripts handle setting up symlinks outside of the repository. They’re intended for use with GNU bash and GNU stow.

Config files are located within the home directory of the repo, which is matching where they will be symlinked to, including their subdirectories.

These tools have dotfiles in this repo:

startx (~/.xinitrc)
dunst
foot
kvantum
GNU bash
GNU readline
GIMP
lxterminal
pcmanfm
zeal
htop
river
rivercarro
chromium (to enable VA-API)
inkscape
git

Dependencies:

Make sure you have the following working to get the full experience:

river
rivercarro
grim
slurp
wl-clipboard
xdg-desktop-portal-wlr
wlr-randr
GNOME polkit agent

In case you’re using the X11 screenshot scripts:

scrot
maim
slop
xclip

Also, make sure your sudorders is set up to not prompt for a password, some of my setup depends on it, and might need adjustments otherwise.

Installing:

Just run

./install

The script is written in GNU bash and depends on GNU stow to run. In case you’re on arch, the package’s names are simply bash and stow. Both are GNU software, so they should be to install or even build from source on just about anything.

etc dotfiles

There’s also some files in the etc directory, which are likely to be machine specific. I’m intentionally not providing a way to install them, as they should likely be copied over as necessary and potentially modified.

These pieces of software have dotfiles in etc:

X11
tlp
inputrc (default arch file, might be usable somewhere)
keyd

Templates

The templates directory contains example scripts that are too specific for to be version controlled. In a way, it’s similar to the etc directory, but with it representing ~.

Useful commands

It might be worth trying out these commands:

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface font-name 'DejaVu Sans Mono 9'

This sets the default font in newer versions of GTK, especially on Wayland.

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface color-scheme 'prefer-dark'

This enables dark mode under Wayland (xdg-desktop-portal implementations read this).
