xero / dotfiles Goto Github PK

My guess is that some color code is not properly escaped. Calling anything else with the same script fixes the problem.

Hi,
I'm new to Stow and I'm having difficulties understanding how to manage the dotfiles properly.
My quest is: If you have to add a file, do you create it in the repo and then relaunch stow every time?
I know my question is off topic and I will remove it if you don't want to answare me but I really appreciate any kind of help.

I noticed in xero_shell.gif and in aliases.zsh that you used a font called Rusto, but I can't find it anywhere, and it did not come installed with toilet on my system (Arch). Did you make it yourself? It's really pretty and I want it. :p

Hi,
How would you manage directories with both system-wide and user specific files?
A directory like xorg.

A solution might be:

$ pwd 
~/dotfiles
$ stow -t /etc -d xorg etc
$ stow -t ~/.config -d xorg .config

Not really pretty. Is there any better way to get around this?

This font is not allowed to be redistributed either by other web sites or be included in a package, download, product or source repository. See https://damieng.com/blog/2008/05/26/envy-code-r-preview-7-coding-font-released and https://www.fontsquirrel.com/fonts/envy-code-r

decide on a methodology / implementation to auto install dotfiles.

• bash file that creates symlinks?
• homeshick?
• something else?

Hello,

I have one question about GNU Stow. I learned, thanks to you, how to use GNU Stow with the -t option like this stow -t / my_folder. I am wondering how can I unstow it? I tried stow -D my_folder and stow -D / my_folder, but it doesn't work. Do you have any idea how to do this?

Thanks!

Regarding: https://github.com/xero/dotfiles/blob/3b05bdfc36346f8d92a5af0a317c7f769bf7754a/bin/bin/epoch

In BASH 5.0, $EPOCHSECONDS was introduced, which stores seconds since Epoch, saving the need for all that stuff. Even in >= BASH 4.2, the printf builtint itself can already show SSE:

printf '%(%s)T\n' -1

The %(...)T format specification is just for most of the usual gubbins you'd give date(1) and other utilities and functions from other languages (e.g., strftime()).

Regarding formatting SSE, that's also easy with printf in BASH:

printf '%(%F_%X)T\n' SSE

The above would format the given SSE as a common timestamp.

You most likely want to store the date and/or time into a variable for later usage, but using command substitution and a subshell for this isn't fun. Believe it or not, printf has you covered there as well, as of BASH 3.1 (4.1 for array subscripts):

printf -v Timestamp '%(%F_%X)T\n' SSE

The above will grab a suitable timestamp, then shove it into a shell variable.

Essentially, date(1) is almost always redundant in BASH, with some obscure exceptions, such as date -d tomorrow, although this could easily be done with BASH as well. As I've been saying for years: "if you're using BASH, use BASH!" ;) This will help optimize your scripts in the future.

Hello xero,

Saw that you've been using two different xinitrc files that can be merged:

Replace startx in your zprofile with

exec xinit awesome -- :0 -nolisten tcp vt1

Also in your shell configuration file you can point another location for xinitrc

export XINITRC="$HOME/.config/xinitrc"

Is there are any reason why there are so many sleep in there ?

Cheers

small thing bothering me :|
alias vi="vim" and alias mkdir="mkdir -p" are present twice in the .zsh/aliases.zsh file.
👍

Is this compatible with setting as GH Codespaces dotfile-repo?

Hello xero,

I like this wallpaper a lot!

But I cannot find it in wallpaper/. Could you please share that?

Thanks! :)

Hi,

I like your setup and colors, especially nord colors :) Very nice job.
I would like to use it but it still requires quite a bit of manual work to install all the packages, etc. Would you consider making a shell script to bootstrap everything?
Thanks!

Some of your scripts are pretty impressive to a shell novice like me. (Others a bit silly 😉 ).
Under what license are these scripts available? Can I reuse and adapt them?

Thanks for accumulating all of this!
Don't you know if greybeard theme for vim exists? Didn't find it

I love what you have here, and I have taken some things from it, thank you. I have been looking for a good place to find some good unicode for a few things while customizing my own tmux and nvim. Where did you get yours from?
Specifically, I am looking for angle brackets, half circles and such that are full line height.
