These are my config files for Bash, VIM, Python, tmux and more. Also includes a handful of utility scripts and quite a lot of aliases/functions I find useful and re-use quite often.
This repo is under a do as you please license :)
I really hate code or configuration that I don't understand. It might do magical things, but when things ago awry, and they do, I need to be able to fix it. In this setup, I have handwritten (or at least hand copied 😃) every line, and I have tried to document (commit msg or inline comment) why the line exists if it is scary or weird in some way. I encourage you to read the various setup files to understand how it works and prod around yourself :)
Which programs to install and how is of course unique to every operating system. This setup supports this quite fine, so I can get my tools, no matter if macOS or WSL2.
Some of the common utilities uses environment switches to handle BSD vs GNU issues and such automatically. Examples of this are util.esed
and util.size
. This way I can use these utils to get (mostly) platform independant scripts :)
This repo and its configs includes my settings, which means that if you run the ./setup.sh
script, it will overwrite your existing configuration files.
I have taken steps to ensure that any personal settings involving names are not re-used (was causing issues), so your Git committer info will be safe :)
git clone https://github.com/fatso83/dotfiles
./dotfiles/setup.sh # and wait until completion ...
The first time you run the install it will take some time, mostly due YouCompleteMe, which needs to be downloaded and compiled. It might seem as if the install hangs on this step, but this only takes a lot of time the first time you run setup. On subsequent ./setup.sh
runs, it should not take more than a second or two.
