All the things you need if you're me.

dotfiles

All the things you need if you're me. Works by using Chezmoi. This automatically installs some essential + useful programs, as well as my personal configurations of them. If you're not me, good luck- it's all bespoke to my weird accessibility needs and personal tastes.

How to use

# install chezmoi
# Debian uses `/bin`, not `~/bin`, unlike the chezmoi default
sudo sh -c "$(wget -qO get.chezmoi.io)" -- -b /bin
# install these dotfiles specifically
chezmoi init mimuki

vim plugins will be installed on first launch (so uh, launch vim first if you plan on going offline)

chezmoi update to get the latest changes from github. chezmoi apply to apply any local changes to your actual dotfiles. Anything else you need to know should be in the chezmoi documentation.

Currently included:

(note: this is software with custom configuration in this repository. additional software will also be installed)

• awesomeWM, a window manager

• btop, a resource monitor

• epy, an epub reader

• feh, an image viewer

• gammastep, a colour temperature adjuster

• git, a version control system

• keynav, a keyboard-driven mouse replacement

• gonic, a music server

• picom, a compositor

• profanity, an XMPP client

• rofi, an application launcher, window switcher, and more

• talon voice, a hands-free input replacement

• tmux, a terminal multiplexer

• vim, a text editor

• Autostarting programs on login

• Custom fonts

System naming convention

Currently not finalized, and subject to change. End goal is usefulness in automation (i.e. server software is irrelevant on a desktop, so don't install it there) without sacrificing aesthetics or excessive length. It should be as precise as it needs to be to avoid name collisions, and no further.

username: 5 letter, food related. For flavour and machine specific differences. e.g. grape hostname: (i am changing this so what was here is wrong, will update later)

dotfiles's Issues

Program list should link to their respective websites

thanks future me you are a gamer

Decide on how to handle submodules

i wanted to have extra stuff for awesomewm like lain in its own modules/ directory, but that seems to cause a million issues because paths in most plugins are hardcoded assuming they're in the awesome directory and not a subfolder

either move smart borders out of the modules folder, or move lain and future stuff into it. probably the first one because its less work at the cost of minor aesthetics.

Border updates inconsistent

for some reason unfocusing doesn't always update the border colour, causing the appearance of multiple windows having focus.

changing focus with the mouse is fine, but keyboard isnt. titlebar also updates correctly
