peprc

Pepijn's rc-file for including in Bash.

Installation

Clone (or download) the repository into the home directory and name it .peprc to make it a hidden directory.

git clone https://github.com/titusjan/peprc.git .peprc

Copy the files starting with dot_ to the home director. Replace dot_ with . so that they become hidden. Make backups of the originals if deemed necessary.

To use the at_login.sh add the following lines to the .profile or .bash_profile:

# Include commands from peprc that are executed once, at login.
if [ -f ~/.peprc/at_login.sh ]; then
    . ~/.peprc/at_login.sh
fi

To use the always.sh and the color_prompt.sh scripts add the following lines to the .bashrc file:

# Include commands from peprc that are always executed.
if [ -f ~/.peprc/always.sh ]; then
    . ~/.peprc/always.sh
fi

# Make prompt red in case last command gave an error.
if [ -f ~/.peprc/color_prompt.sh ]; then
    . ~/.peprc/color_prompt.sh
fi

TODO

Make it work under graphical shells so that the environment variables are also set when starting a program from the start menu.

This can be done by setting them in ~/.xprofile, ~/.xinitrc, or ~/.xsession See: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/environment_variables#Graphical_environment
