Synopsis
|
|
********
|
|
This repository contains configuration files for various Unix-programs.
|
|
Target distribution: Arch Linux (might work for most Unices as well)
|
|
|
|
Generic Comments
|
|
****************
|
|
|
|
The only purpose is to be a source of inspiration. Examples are always a good
|
|
technical support. (Especially for applications that do not provide examples in
|
|
their documentation.) There is no use in blind-copying the content of any file
|
|
into your personal home folder. At best it might break things.
|
|
|
|
In case you still want to copy some files -- for quick and dirty testing purpose
|
|
-- do not forget that most of the files are in hidden folders. Also note that
|
|
in some shells, the '*' joker will NOT match hidden files, that is
|
|
|
|
cp -r source-dir/* dest-dir/
|
|
|
|
will copy non-hidden folders only. To match all folders, use the following
|
|
joker instead:
|
|
|
|
cp -r source-dir/{.*,*} dest-dir/ # zsh
|
|
cp -r source-dir/{.??*,*} dest-dir/ # bash
|
|
|
|
Still, the solution for bash is not perfect as it affects 3 characters files
|
|
only. A more convenient solution:
|
|
|
|
# bash only.
|
|
shopt -s dotglob
|
|
cp -r source-dir/* dest-dir/
|
|
|
|
|
|
Some applications will need extra dependencies other than the default ones. You
|
|
might have a look at the .arch-pkg-explicit* files to see what software I've
|
|
been using.
|
|
|
|
Final word: do not forget to read the manpages!

Awesome
|
|
*******
|
|
Extra deps: Vicious
|
|
|
|
Configuration is very close to the default one, which mostly fits my needs.
|
|
Most of the work I've done is for the status bar, but since I'm using the
|
|
Vicious plugin, it is quite straightforward.
|
|
|
|
Emacs
|
|
*****
|
|
Extra deps: auctex, auto-complete, emacs-lua-mode, emacs-yasnippet,
|
|
|
|
Not much personal work, mostly use of plugins. Still very powerful.
|
|
|
|
Luakit
|
|
******
|
|
Some custom bindings, download location, search engines, etc.
|
|
Functional Adblock script. Script+Plugins toggle.
|
|
|
|
Mutt
|
|
****
|
|
This one is not easy to get into it. I managed to get multiple accounts with
|
|
pgp-encrypted passwords working, which means there is no plain password stored
|
|
on the disk. As a result, I just get prompted for a main password on Mutt
|
|
startup, then everything works out of the box.
|
|
|
|
I use GPG for password management, mostly because it features a password agent.
|
|
|
|
I'm using embedded imap and smtp services -- you must provide the required
|
|
compilation options.
|
|
|
|
Some customization: custom index view, good Emacs integration -- see .emacs --,
|
|
custom theme.
|
|
|
|
Ranger
|
|
******
|
|
Custom bindings, file association, tweaked a few options.
|
|
|
|
Scripts
|
|
*******
|
|
.save: generates a home configuration archive.
|
|
.network: network setup. Works with wpa_supplicant. May replace any network
|
|
manager.
|
|
|
|
Shell
|
|
*****
|
|
Target: zsh, bash
|
|
|
|
Probably the most interesting part here. A lot of stuff: aliases, functions,
|
|
shell options, etc.
|
|
|
|
Please note that this config is mainly intended -- and tested -- for zsh. It
|
|
should be mostly bash-compatible though. When incompabilities have been
|
|
encountered, it has been reported into the configuration files. Hence the shared
|
|
folder .shell.d/, whose files get sourced by both bash and zsh. Bash-specific
|
|
and zsh-specific options are in dedicated files ending with the apropriate shell
|
|
name.
|
|
|
|
Vim
|
|
***
|
|
I've only been a casual Vim user, so do not expect to much from it.
|
|
|
|
WMFS
|
|
****
|
|
The last time I used WMFS, the development was in a transition from version 1.x
|
|
to 2.x. So beware!, configuration files might be quite broken.
