#Edward's dotfiles

#Requirements

#Installation

• stow

#Some notable tools used

• zsh
• sponge
• fzf
• ripgrep
• delta
• asdf
• exa
• atuin

#Install

./install.sh

Installation uses stow, which symlinks files and directories. This uses the --dotfiles flag which takes any path starting with dot- and replaces it with . when linking.

#zsh

I use zsh as my main shell. Files I use to configure the shell are, in order that zsh loads them:

• .zshrc - login & interactive shell
• .zlogin - login only
• .zlogout - mostly for disconnecting from ssh session

Note that I don't use .zshenv because, in theory it would be a place for environment variables, but this is not recommended on macOS.

Aliases and function are sourced via a separate .aliases and .functions file, respectively.

#git

It's worth calling out that my git configuration uses delta for viewing diffs and sponge as a commit-msg hook for ensuring that commit messages are hard-wrapped.

#rc files

These configuration files (with the exception of zshrc) are found in the configs directory.

#TODO

• Move some aliases to bin so they appear in the autocomplete menu
• check out zshzle man page for more macos-like line editing
