powerpak's dotfiles

Auto install

git clone into ~/dotfiles (or ~/.dotfiles), cd into the repo, and run rake.

Manual installation

In general, git clone into ~/dotfiles (or ~/.dotfiles), then symlink as needed into ~

For fancy screen:

You need to symlink .screenrc and .screen-profiles, and symlink bin/screen-profiles-status into your ~/bin

If you want to change the logo, create .screen-profiles/logo

For htop without meters for all CPUs:

Most useful on machines with >32 cores, in which case htop becomes a wall of meters without a process list. Symlink ~/.config/htop/htoprc to this repo's version; beware that htop automatically saves new changes every time you quit gracefully with F10 (not Ctrl-C).

For .bash_profile:

Don't symlink; instead, edit existing .bashrc or .bash_profile, and add:

source dotfiles/.bash_profile

Then set the color of the prompt and the hostname by adding:

export PSCOLOR=$COLOR_(BLACK|CYAN|BLUE|RED|GRAY|BROWN|GREEN|PURPLE)
export PSHOST="computah"

If you want the hostname portion to be bold or underlined, set

export PSBOLD=1

export PSUNDERLINE=1
