dotfiles

This repo contains my dot files, useful configurations, and instructions on how these work.

Usage

Uses rcm to sync files from the ~/.dotfiles directory.

Add a file or directory to be synced using mkrc [filename]

For instance, mkrc ~/.bash_profile

This places it in ~/.dotfiles, which can be tracked in a repo.

If files in ~/.dotfiles have changed, they can be installed on your system with rcup

Easy peasy:

git clone https://github.com/leebradley/dotfiles ~/.dotfiles; \
 . ~/.dotfiles/autoinstall.sh; \
 echo "source ~/.bashrc.common" >> ~/.bashrc

Optionally install FiraCode font. On linux:

sudo apt install fonts-firacode

All vim bundles are managed with Plug in ~/.config/nvim/init.vim

Install iTerm2
Open Preferences
In the General tab, check Load preferences from a custom folder or URL
Set to ~/.iterm_profile (You might have to press CMD-G at the file selector to type this in manually)

Because I use unicode characters in PS1 I sometimes run into strange bugs. See: https://gitlab.com/gnachman/iterm2/issues/6130

To fix, just enable unicode 9 characters in iTerm.
