Scripts

The scripts are just a copy of Holman's dotfiles scripts with a little modification from me.

Here's the important part of Holman's dotfiles scripts:

components

There's a few special files in the hierarchy.

• bin/: Anything in bin/ will get added to your $PATH and be made available everywhere.
• Brewfile: This is a list of applications for Homebrew Cask to install: things like Chrome and 1Password and Adium and stuff. Might want to edit this file before running any initial setup.
• topic/*.zsh: Any files ending in .zsh get loaded into your environment.
• topic/path.zsh: Any file named path.zsh is loaded first and is expected to setup $PATH or similar.
• topic/completion.zsh: Any file named completion.zsh is loaded last and is expected to setup autocomplete.
• topic/*.symlink: Any files ending in *.symlink get symlinked into your $HOME. This is so you can keep all of those versioned in your dotfiles but still keep those autoloaded files in your home directory. These get symlinked in when you run script/bootstrap.

I'm not claiming I did much except the addition of symfolder. The .symfolder extension lets you set a folder with that extension and everything inside of it will be symlinked to that dotfolder.

• topic/*.symfolder: Any folder ending in *.symfolder get symlinked into your $HOME inside of that dotfolder. These get symlinked in when you run script/bootstrap.

  e.g.

  mutt.symfolder
  ﹂accounts
    ﹂account.account
  ﹂msmtprc

  This means that everything under mutt.symfolder will be symlinked to ~/.mutt/. Probably Holman`s script already works this way but I wanted to have a way to differentiate between files and folder contents.

After some refactoring I extracted some shared_functionality to its own script and then I'm must sourceing it where needed.

e.g.: LaunchAgents install script
