This is my dotfiles repository that lets me quickly bootstrap a new Arch Linux system. It's expansive and essentially its own Linux distribution, so you're probably only looking for configuration for a program or two.
Before installing, you should install the relevant packages with pacman and
gem. A list of packages and their purpose is below.
pacman -S artwiz-fonts awesome ctags git gtk-engine-murrine hub keychain \
lua luajit luakit mpc mpd mpv mutt msmtp notmuch pass ruby \
rxvt-unicode slock sxiv tmux xautolock xorg-server xorg-xmodmap \
xsel zsh
packer -S dmenu-xft-fuzzy isync-git powerpill xcape-git
gem install gem-ctags bundler
Afterward, check out the repository and run the installation script:
git clone https://github.com/devlinzed/dotfiles ~/.dotfiles
cd ~/.dotfiles
rake
When you're done, git grep for devlin and change it as necessary. If you
installed to a different directory, look for .dotfiles, too.
The script is idempotent and you can run it again to update stuff.
The focal bits are the following. This repository mainly consists of configuration and scripts for these programs.
- email: mutt
- image viewer: sxiv
- music player: mpd and mpc
- shell: zsh
- terminal emulator: rxvt-unicode
- terminal multiplexer: tmux
- text editor: vim
- version control: git
- video player: mpv
- web browser: luakit
- window manager: awesome
Some programs or scripts rely on secondary programs. To properly use everything in this repository, you'll need to install these as well.
- dmenu for menus, duh
- exuberant ctags for indexing code
- isync for syncing email
- keychain for managing agents & passwords
- msmpt for sending email
- notmuch for indexing and searching email
- pass for managing passwords
- xautolock and slock to lock the screen
