Dotfiles

Collection of my dotfiles, including configurations for vim, tmux, bash, zsh, screen, mutt and git comes with opinionated defaults. These configuration files are tested under Mac OS X and Debian/Ubuntu.

Requirements for each rc file

• vim 2.7+
• bash 4.0+
• screen 4.0+
• mutt 1.5+
• lynx

Installation

• Clone repository to your home folder.
• Symlink rc files (all configuration files is optional, you should activate any of them you need) to your home folder with dot prefixed filenames. (like bash_profile > .bash_profile)

Quick Install:

./dotfiles/install.sh

For example:

$ ln -s dotfiles/bash_profile .bash_profile

This will activates git-prompt (branch name and status) and git-completion (for tab-completion of commands, remotes, branches etc..) in bash. Also adds some useful aliases and options to bash (Filename correction, colored grep, ls-colors).

$ ln -s dotfiles/inputrc .inputrc

This will activates case insensitive filename completion and partial history search with up and down arrow.

For the installing vim configuration:

./dotfiles/clone-vim-plugins.sh

This command installs following packages:

• lightline.vim
• vim-signify.git
• nordtheme
• https://github.com/jnurmine/Zenburn.git

Vim keymaps

\l :setlocal number
\o :set paste

<C-k> :wincmd k
<C-j> :wincmd j
<C-h> :wincmd h
<C-l> :wincmd l

<C-Right> :tabnext
<C-Left> :tabprevious
<C-t> :tabnew

Fixing Bash on OS X

brew install bash;echo /usr/local/bin/bash|sudo tee -a /etc/shells;chsh -s /usr/local/bin/bash

GNU Screen configuration customized for daily basic use, activate it with:

ln -s dotfiles/screenrc .screenrc

Key bindings

bind ',' prev
bind '.' next

bind = resize =
bind + resize +1
bind - resize -1
bind _ resize max

muttrc configuration is fairly customized for using with GMail, activate it with:

ln -s dotfiles/muttrc .muttrc

Key bindings

bind editor <space> noop
macro index gi "<change-folder>=INBOX<enter>" "Go to inbox"
macro index ga "<change-folder>=[Gmail]/All Mail<enter>" "Go to all mail"
macro index gs "<change-folder>=[Gmail]/Sent Mail<enter>" "Go to Sent Mail"
macro index gd "<change-folder>=[Gmail]/Drafts<enter>" "Go to drafts"

You need to change username / password configration for yourself in muttrc file. Also mutt configured for displaying HTML mails instead of plain text, you must install lynx for that.
