Dot File Management

I have always wanted a simple way of managing my bash file settings (.bashrc, .bash_profile and the like). I had built a system much like this one, but it didn't work very well. So this is a ground-up rewrite

This repo contains a slightly modified copy of what you would find in the default /etc/skel on a Fedora 11 system. But you actually only need the makefile

Of my modifications you'll find the useful stuff in _bashrc and _profile.d.

Instructions

Creating source files

Any file which matches the shell glob _* will be linked into $HOME as a symlink with the first _ replaced with a .

For example:

_bashrc

becomes

${HOME}/.bashrc

Installing source files

It's as simple as running:

make

From this top-level directory.

Requirements

• bash
• gnu make
