BashSnips

Small collection of misc bash snippets, used for various scripts.

Decent reference: https://devhints.io/bash

Vim Setup Script

vim_setup.sh will check to see if you have vim installed, and try to install it if you don't. Then create some needed vim directoris, download and install the pathogen plugin, and a few color schemes. Finally it will install a .vimrc config file.

Installation

Simply run: curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/xstrex/BashSnips/master/vim_setup.sh | bash

Error checking

Currently there's very little error checking, if you find something, or would like to make an improvement please issue a pull request, or open an issue.

Custom Bashrc

Adds a ton of aliases, and a few useful functions.

Installation

Simply run this: curl -LSso .bashrc https://raw.githubusercontent.com/xstrex/BashSnips/master/.bashrc && source .bashrc

Current Functions

cls : turn color "ls" on or off depending on OS
als : list known aliases
mcd : make and cd into directory
tgz : create a tar.gz file from a file or dir
ext : extract a ton of different formats

Prompt

Sets a color bash prompt if the term supports color (otherwise a boring non-color prompt).
