viccuad's dotfiles

My dotfiles!

gvim

vim inside tmux

vim + gdb (ConqueGDB plugin)

Layout

I use stow for deployment (and a little script), so the layout of the dotfiles is as follows:

As you can see, 'applications' are separated on directories, and inside them, stowable files that follow to path they should have from ~/.

There's a few special files in the hierarchy.

containing nostow: Any files containing nostow in their filename will not get symlinked by stow.
/nostow/bin/: Anything in bin/ will get added to your $PATH and be made available everywhere.
topic/nostow/*.zsh: Any files ending in .zsh get loaded into your environment.
topic/nostow/path.zsh: Any file named path.zsh is loaded first and is expected to setup $PATH or similar.
topic/nostow/completion.zsh: Any file named completion.zsh is loaded last and is expected to setup autocomplete.

If you're adding a new area to your forked dotfiles — say, "Java" — you can simply add a java directory and put files in there. Anything with an extension of .zsh inside of java/nostow/ will get automatically included into your shell. All the things inside java that aren't inside of nostow or don't have nostow in their filenames will get symlinked into $HOME when you run install.sh.

install

To install run this:

sh
git clone https://github.com/viccuad/dotfiles.git ~/.dotfiles
cd ~/.dotfiles
./install.sh

The install script will ask if you want to set your Zsh as the default shell, make a new gitconfig, make a dry run that does not write anything, etc. Installing a dir will symlink the appropriate files in .dotfiles to your home directory. Everything is configured and tweaked within ~/.dotfiles.

We are using stow, and stow does not delete or overwrite file that already exist. You will need to make a backup of them or delete them.

uninstall

To uninstall run:

./uninstall.sh
