Shortcuts, Commands, Aliases & Functions

Here's a simple getting started for who might be interested in understanding my terminal config, or for my future self.

Notes

I use less as pager.

PATH is populated as follows (in order):

  • $HOME/bin2
  • $HOME/dotfiles/bin
  • /opt/local/{bin,sbin}
  • /usr/local/{bin,sbin}
  • $PATH

as stated in zsh/common/zsh_env.

~/.zsh_custom is automatically sourced if it exists, and ~/bin2 is automatically added to $PATH. Both are not part of the repo and can be used to add machine-specific customizations and other executables.

CDPATH is set in zsh/common/zsh_env file, even if I usually only set it in ~/.zsh_custom.

I use dandavision's delta as diff tool for git. Settings are declared in git/git_config.sh script.

grep is aliased to grep -i so it's always case-insensitive.
