keep it simple, stupid.
my dotfiles for arch linux
notes:
- this was compiled using chezmoi. This makes it super easy to pull and apply these dots.
- chezmoi init https://github.com/at-manos/dotfiles.git
- chezmoi diff (if you want to see what changes it'd make)
- chezmoi apply
- If you don't want to use chezmoi, it may look a little weird with all the "dot_"s and "executable_"s. Just replace "dot_" with "."s and remove any "executable_" tags if you're not interested in using it. I do like it though, and I've written a little script to help keep them up to date.
- I have shamelessly taken most of my dots from Luke Smith's voidrice. There are improvements I have made, but at the core, it's mostly his.
quick rc's:
