Welcome to my personal collection of weirdish—sometimes unmaintained—configuration and lose organization of cool scripts!
These are the setup I have on almost all machines I work in, and because I work on many tildes, I make this set of configuration as cross-platform as possible.
Used on (aka loosely tested on):
WSL 2 would probably be a similar experience to any of those corresponding linux distros.

My default shell is fish because it comes with auto-suggestions and
highlighting without the need of additional plugins. It does have its own
seemingly friendlier syntax, but many times I find myself dropping into bash
while writing shell scripts, so I realized... the only thing that is keeping me
to fish may as well be the auto-suggestions and syntax highlighting...
imrsh seems quite attractive looking at
its goals, plus the fact that it's POSIX-compatible, so if development there
has any progress I may even consider switching.
Despite fish being my primary shell, I still like to keep all my aliases,
scripts, and environment variables synced with the other shells. This is done
in the .startup.sh script. It should be sourced for
POSIX-compatible shells, eg:
echo 'source ~/.startup.sh' >> ~/.bashrc
echo 'source ~/.startup.sh' >> ~/.profile
I don't track bashrc or bash_profile because I like to keep it to the
system's defaults. Maintaining cross-platform versions of them when I use them
rarely is a pain.
The fish shell configuration lives at .config/fish/. Of which, config.fish
doesn't really anything specific, it just sources the shared environment
variable file (.exportenvs.fish) and the shared aliases (.aliases).
The .exportenvs.fish file is generated by
dotscripts/gen/fish-exportenvs.
It takes .exportenvs and translates it into fish syntax.
Instead of using bass to source .exportenvs on the fly during fish's startup,
fish can source the generated .exportenvs.fish directly which improves
performance significantly.
I have a symlink .bash_aliases pointing to .aliases because bash likes to
look for that file.
.exportenvs is basically a bunch of environment variables exports. A whole
ton of installation scripts on the internet likes to add export something=something to bashrc, so when that happens I tend to just move it
into my .exportenvs.
Every time .exportenvs is updated, run dot setup fish to regenerate
.exportenvs.fish and reload the environment.
TLDR:
.startup.sh for POSIX-compatible shell configuration.aliases,.exportenvs, and.addpath.See below section "Local" for machine-specific configuration (untracked in the repo).
Oh My Fish is like a plugin manager for fish.
I don't have a lot of plugins and nor do I use it for theme and prompt, just these utilities:
z: quickly access a common dirbass: source bash scripts and expressions in fish (I use this for giving
fish support to nvm, see the nvm
function)pj: quickly access projectsThe fish theme is entirely dependent on the terminal color settings and the prompt is copied from a particular pre-existing prompt style that shows error status and git status. I've modifid the prompt style and added right prompt to show user@hostname.
Setup: dotscripts/setup/fish
Fish functions (located at .config/fish/functions) are mostly aliases that
require some checking or additional logic.
cat, rm, ll are aliased to ccat, trash, and exa respectively if those programs are installed.
The nvm function adds fish support to nvm (Node Version Manager).
The .config/fish/config_local.fish file is for configuration specific for a
computer, this could be setting a special $EDITOR, etc.
Other local files recognized:
.addpath_local - machine specific software that changes PATH.gitconfig-local - email/name, sendmail.config/kitty/local.conf - fontsSetup: dotscripts/gen/localfiles
The bin/nv script is an alias to neovim, and runs vim if neovim is not installed.
For vim I use Vundle as my plugin manager just because I discovered vim before
nvim and Vundle before vim-plug. My vimrc is largely unmaintained
pieces of configuration copied from other people's configs. The set of plugins
are mostly maintained (as in me modifying what plugins to use), except for
auto-pairs if I remember correctly.
Sometimes when I change a plugin for nvim and change it for vim too, if I have extra time.
I use vim-plug as my plugin manager for nvim because it is shorter to type. And it installs plugins asynchronously.
My nvim config directory (.config/nvim) has separate files for different types
of configuration. general.vim has mostly the same content as .vimrc.
The isWSL function checks whether the system is WSL in my (n)vim configs. This is to set up the clipboard correctly and rebind some keys to make alt work correctly in vim.
Lua and LSP for Neovim
If the neovim version on the system >=0.5, LSP will be set up with lua configuration, otherwise (and if node is installed), CoC will be used. I don't use any system with neovim <0.5, so the CoC set up is unmaintained. I might remove it in the future.
LSP servers - See comments in .config/nvim/lua/lsp.lua.
I'll probably also optimize my vim config so that it can be fast and clean - available for quick editting. No auto-complete, no fancy themes, just some must-have utilities.
Setup:
dotscripts/setup/nvimdotscripts/install/misc - Includes Vundle setup together with other
software.I use chemacs2 for switching emacs profiles and it allows me to use both
vanilla emacs and doom emacs at the same time. See
.emacs-profiles.el.
Setup: dotscripts/setup/emacs. This script is prettty heavily tested and
it should set up everything you need to start using both emacs and doom
normally. It installs chemacs and doom if not already.
Configuration for Vanilla should probably work for version 26 too, but I use 27+ on almost all my machines.
Stuff in .config/emacsd are largely copied from various emacs distributions to
suit my needs. The modules directory is
work-in-progress.
Doom itself requires at least emacs 27+ and git 2.23+ among other things. More info on the github repo.
There isn't much personal configuration in .config/doom yet, it's mostly just
enabling or disabling doom modules and add some packages.
The emacs directory would be at .doomemacs (because .emacs.d is for
chemacs).
The shell theme depends on the terminal theme. I use Kitty Terminal, where its
config at .config/kitty uses the Dracula theme. Font configuration varies
depending on the system hence it should be in a separate file font.conf. A
local.conf file is recognized. Both of which are not tracked in this repo as
they are platform-dependent.
My amfora config at .config/amfora uses the default theme with mostly default
settings. I don't use amfora all that often because I also use elpher,
lagrange, and gelim. I plan to have a custom newtab page as well as a custom
theme in the future. Because gelim doesn't support client certificates yet, I
only mostly use amfora for capsules that want a client certificate.
Gelim config is at .config/gelim. gelim is my own gemini and spartan client
for the terminal that isn't a full-blown TUI and tries to stay simple whilst
offering many features and extensibility. It's still WIP so there won't be much
configuration in there yet.
