/dotfiles

My dotfiles and a simple python script to manage the symlinks

Primary LanguageVim Script

A collection of my dotfiles, as well as other customization steps to be taken when setting up a new OSX or Linux environment.

Installation

You can pipe the install script directly to bash with the following (if you aren't me, you probably want to be careful doing this and understand what this script does before running it on your machine).

curl -fL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cameronhr/dotfiles/main/init.sh | bash

Run it from the directory that you want the dotfiles repo cloned into.

Other

  1. Correct vim solarized colour display in Terminal: Open a Terminal window and modify the Profile (Edit -> Preferences -> Profiles in Ubuntu 18.04) Select 'Solarized Dark' for both 'Built-in schemes' and 'Palette'
  2. Bind Control_L to Caps_Lock: Install Tweaks tool: sudo apt-get install -yq gnome-tweak-tool && gnome-tweaks Click through: 'Keyboard & Mouse -> Additional Layout Options -> Caps Lock behavior'
