dot files

This project contains a collection of configuration files to setup a Linux system to my liking. Altough it may also work for other systems, these configurations are only tested on Debian and Arch Linux.

Usage

In your $HOME do

git clone <this-repo> . 

Necessary manual steps

The following steps are necessary to make certain tools work as intended. In the future they may be automated. (famous last words of a programmer)

keyboard layout

The german keyboards have a somewhat necessary annoyance that to get any of the 3 characters ````, ^ or ~ you need to press the key twice (or follow it up with a space). That's to allow the typing of accented characters like ã. To disable that behaviour you may choose the layout ".. no dead keys".

clone base16

```
git clone https://github.com/chriskempson/base16-shell.git ~/.config/base16-shell
```

zsh

1. Clone zplug

   git clone https://github.com/zplug/zplug .zplug
   

2. Install all zsh plugins if this was not already done automatically

   zplug install 
   

3. Change to your prefered theme (my choice: solarflare)

   base16_<your-prefered-theme>
   

vim

Either use a version of vi compiled with the flags that supports the inline windows coc uses (nox vim) or use neovim.

1. download https://github.com/junegunn/vim-plug and copy it to either ~/.vim/autoload (normal vim) or ~/.config/nvim/autload

2. Install all vim plugins

   :PlugInstall 
   

3. Adapt the theme if required. If you chose material-darker you may want to change color08 / Bright Black to "90/90/90" to make comments etc more visible. File to adapt: $HOME/.config/base16-shell/scripts/base16- .sh
