dotfiles

Here are some configs that I've been using for a while.

My primary setup is Ubuntu but this should work for OSX too.

To get rolling take a look at the woot script which handles installs and backups. There are installs for Ubuntu, Lubuntu, and OSX.

Install

Download and unzip the repo: https://github.com/greenyouse/dotfiles/archive/master.zip

The install should be something like:

mv dotfiles ~/.config
cd ~/.config/dotfiles
# assumes your $HOME is clear of dotfiles like .bashrc or .profile
./woot install client

Backups go like this:

cd ~/.config/dotfiles
./woot backup storage-drive/backup-folder

Uninstall:

./woot uninstall

Features

I'm sort of in the Emacs-as-an-OS camp, so there are a few goodies in my Emacs/stumpwm files to check out. It started out with Emacs-Live but has changed a bit over time. Here's the gist:

vim-like keybindings (evil-leader-conf.el)
excellent Clojure(Script) support
basic support for lots of langs
decent web dev support

The Vim files are pretty old and kind of a mess because I switched to Emacs a long time ago. Lots of dragons and scary stuff, watch out.

For projects I keep a ~/Gits folder that categorizes the work so I know where to find things. Recommended for avoiding headaches:

Gits
├── hacks # one-off projects, slightly better than /tmp
├── others # clones of good projects to read through
├── contribs
└── personal
    ├── public # stuff on GitHub
    ├── private # stuff not on GitHub
    ├── blog
    └── etc # other dirs for other things

Happy Hacking!
