* Dotfiles
I've organised this repository with [[https://www.gnu.org/software/stow/][GNU Stow]]. It focuses on [[http://zsh.sourceforge.net][Z Shell]] and
[[http://emacs.sexy][Emacs]].
It doesn't use any configuration frameworks, just packages installed
via package managers. For Z shell I use [[https://zplug.sh/][zplug]] and for Emacs I use the
built-in package.el via [[https://github.com/jwiegley/use-package][use-package]].
I've included a wrapper script for =stow= which sets the target
directory to =$HOME=, instead of =../=. This allows the repository to
be cloned anywhere, instead of following the =stow= convention of
being one level below the target directory.
It should work on:
- Linux
- OSX
- FreeBSD
- Windows/Ubuntu
** Installation
Clone the project anywhere, e.g. with =[[https://github.com/motemen/ghq][ghq]]=
#+BEGIN_SRC sh :exports code
ghq get git://git.alanpearce.eu/dotfiles
ghq look git.alanpearce.eu/dotfiles
#+END_SRC
Or just with normal git
#+BEGIN_SRC sh :exports code
git clone git://git.alanpearce.eu/dotfiles ~/projects/alanpearce-dotfiles
#+END_SRC
Installing a set of dotfiles with =stow= is simple. For example, with
Emacs:
#+BEGIN_SRC sh :exports code
./stow -S emacs
#+END_SRC
And then to uninstall
#+BEGIN_SRC sh :exports code
./stow -D emacs
#+END_SRC
*** Z Shell
My zsh configuration uses [[https://zplug.sh/][zplug]], so that will need to be installed:
#+BEGIN_SRC sh :exports code
git clone git://github.com/zplug/zplug ~/projects/zplug/
#+END_SRC
To install the packages:
#+BEGIN_SRC sh :exports code
zsh -ic "zplug install"
#+END_SRC
Note that this will log some errors about a pipe, but that's okay.
zplug is meant to be used in a real interactive shell.
*** Emacs
I use org-mode for my Emacs init file. To simplify setup, I created a
[[file:emacs/.emacs.d/Makefile][Makefile]].
#+BEGIN_SRC sh :exports code
cd ~/.emacs.d/
make
#+END_SRC
