Homedir skeleton

Contains the various rc files, other conf files, and ~/bin/ scripts that make up my homefolder.

There are multiple skeletons:

skel dir	designed for
base	any system
graphical	graphical systems
local-$X	system $X

In addition, an installer script is provided.

usage: install [-h]
               [--symlink | --hardlink | --remote USER@HOST | --target TARGETDIR]
               [--force-unchanged] [--backup FILE.tar] [--simulate]
               [--exclude REGEX]
               skeldir [skeldir ...]

• All files from skeldir are installed in the specified mode (copy/symlink/hardlink).
• Regardless, all folders are created, not linked.
• --remote allows installation to a remote ssh host.
• similarily, --target allows installation to a different folder.
• There is no --uninstall command, but --backup will save the old config.
• install will ask for confirmation, and allows --simulate that won't do any write access.

Two example typescripts of ./install invocations can be viewed by typing

curl http://pub.sft.mx/skelinstalltypescript0
curl http://pub.sft.mx/skelinstalltypescript1

Feel free to fork this repo and use it for your own rc files.
