Paul's dotfiles.

mathias's readme is awesome. go read it.

This repo is mostly for me but you're welcome to make suggestions. Mathias's is the project to fork. I'm mostly catching up to him, @cowboy, and @gf3.

install the neccessary apps

My basic setup is captured in install-deps.sh which adds homebrew, z, nave, etc.

private config

Toss it into a file called .extra which you do not commit to this repo and just keep in your ~/

I do something nice with my PATH there:

# PATH like a bawss
      PATH=/opt/local/bin
PATH=$PATH:/opt/local/sbin
PATH=$PATH:/bin
PATH=$PATH:~/.rvm/bin
PATH=$PATH:~/code/git-friendly
# ...

export PATH

Syntax highlighting

…is really important. even for these files.

Install Dotfiles Syntax Highlighting via Sublime Text 2 Package Control

Sensible OS X defaults

When setting up a new Mac, you may want to set some sensible OS X defaults:

I recommend getting a .jshintrc and .editorconfig defined for all your projects.
