My dotfile repository, happily brought to you by dotty 📖.
git clone https://github.com/mohkale/dotfiles ~/.config/dotfiles && cd ~/.config/dotfiles && ./manage install.
For a list of available subconfigurations that can be instaled, run ./manage list-bots. Install
a config by running ./manage install -b prog1,prog2,....
| path | purpose |
|---|---|
| core | core files which’re installed regardless of environment. |
| bin | scripts, executables, commands. you get the idea 😎. |
| dist | configurations for specific distros or environments. |
| prog | sets up various programs, eg. zathura or konsole. |
| prog/desktop | configs for desktop environments, window managers, etc. |
| prog/editors | vim, emacs… what more do you need. |
| prog/langs | setup multiple programming languages & environments. |
| setup | scripts and binaries related to managing dotfiles. |
It’s worth noting several programs also have scripts and auto-loads that could be
placed in bin/ but are instead placed in a cmds/ sub-directory of their program
configuration, just to make maintenance easier. For example tmux has several
commands in prog/tmux/cmds, instead of bin/.
- Requires admin privilages to create symlinks.
- chocolatey fails when stderr is the null device.
Has issues with high DPI screens such as on a macbook. To get this fixed you can
set Xft.dpi to a value greater than 100 in ~/.Xresources. This will work for
most low level window managers or desktop environments but some more advanced ones
(such as KDE) will ignore this setting and instead rely on custom configurations.
In this case you should use xrandr to trick X into thinking the screen is larger
than it is and then zoom-in in the settings for your desktop environment until you
reach a level of resolution that works.
xrandr --output eDP1 --fb 3200x1800 --panning 3200x1800 --scale 1.25x1.25Might have issues with bluetooth headsets cutting in and out during usage. In my
case this is often fixed by changing the controller mode for your bluetooth driver.
Simply open sudoedit /etc/bluetooth/main.conf and ControllerMode = bredr.
