A collection of scripts for a fast an easy installation of all software, icons, themes, cursors, ... automatically.
We assume you have already installed Budgie on Arch Linux.
Installation of Arch Budgie is explained here :
http://erikdubois.be/how-to-install-budgie-on-arch-linux/
I will be using the following elements :
Sardi icons at AUR and Sourceforge
Surfn icons at AUR and Github
Aureola conky at Github
Plank themes at Github
More info can be found on http://erikdubois.be
In the installation folder are all the scripts for you to have a great working environment but not directly a desktop environment.
I will work with the display manager gdm since we installed budgie. On the login screen of gdm you decide what desktop you will boot Gnome, Budgie or i3.
More info at https://i3wm.org/ about i3 tiling manager.

Installation of Arch Linux and consequently Budgie is documented on https://erikdubois.be
##1. Arch installation
Archlinux installation can be found in this article. It will be shown in VirtualBox in order to be able to make a tutorial. Remember to choose the proper graphical driver and not the virtual box driver when installing on a ssd or harddisk. This will be a base installation upon which we install the desktop environments.

#Youtube sources
ANY tutorial on ANY distro about i3 will help you learn more about i3. Config is 99% same and so are the 'general utilities' to work with i3.

#Remember
##Setting nano instead of vi
export VISUAL=nano
export EDITOR=nano
#What can you do if the script does not execute?
Since I sometimes forget to make the script executable, I include here what you can do to solve that.
A script can only run when it is marked as an executable.
ls -al
Above code will reveal if a script has an "x". X meaning executable. Google "chmod" and "execute" and you will find more info.
For now if this happens, you should apply this code in the terminal and add the file name.
chmod +x typeyourfilename
Then you can execute it by typing
./typeyourfilename
Or you can follow these steps
#But that is the fun in Linux.
You can do whatever Y O U want.
Share the knowledge.
