Unix configuration design notes

Notes for my exploration and changes to this fork of "Cowboy" Ben Alman's dotfiles.

In this wiki, the term Unix refers to all the "unix-like" operating systems that this project supports. Currently supported Unix environments are:

  • Apple Macintosh macOS / OS X / 10.11 El Capitan and newer
  • Ubuntu 14

Planned support (as of 2018-03-31):

  • openSUSE LEAP 43 and newer, and Tumbleweed
  • Raspbian
  • RedHat 7+ (using systemd and dnf)
  • RedHat 6 (using System V and yum)
  • Microsoft Windows (perhaps ... with either Cygwin or the WSL, and package management with Chocolatey)

While each is a Unix, they all differ in the flavour of command-line utilities (BSD vs GNU) and how you install applications, even among the various Linux operating systems. The project aims to work for all of these.
