dotfiles

My dot files

To set up a new personal box, enable iCloud and it will sync the following directories:

• ~/Desktop
• ~/Documents

Create the following symbolic link:

• ln -s ~/Documents/bin ~/bin

Note that ~/Downloads is not synced, therefore, if there is something important, back it up!

Also:

• grab anything out of ~/.ssh like pem files or key pairs
• grab anything out of ~/.aws like config and keys

Then install:

• iTerm2
  • set colour scheme to Solarized (Dark|Light) in Preferences -> Profiles (Default) -> Colors -> Color Presets (Solarized should be built in)
• zsh
• oh-my-zsh
• powerline
  • pip3 install --user git+git://github.com/powerline/powerline
  • ensure that the install location matches the following line in .vimrc: set rtp+=~/Library/Python/3.8/lib/python/site-packages/powerline/bindings/vim/
  • if not, find location via python3 -m site --user-site or without the --user-site
• Source Code Pro for Powerline fonts
  • Download OTF fonts from https://github.com/powerline/fonts
  • install using Font Book app
  • set font to Soure Code Pro for Powerline Black in iTerm2 -> Preferences -> Profiles (Default) -> Text
  • note that size looks best as 14 for 16" MacBook Pro and 16 for 13" MacBook Pro
• Solarized theme (this is built into iTerm2 and pulled in via vundle in vim so ... nothing to do)
• VIM for Mac OS (mvim)
• intall Vundle:
  • git clone https://github.com/VundleVim/Vundle.vim.git ~/.vim/bundle/Vundle.vim
• brew
• do a git clone git@github.com:rootsmith/dotfiles.git this repo into home directory and then:
  • ln -s ~/dotfiles/.zshrc ~/.zshrc
  • ln -s ~/dotfiles/.vimrc ~/.vimrc
  • ln -s ~/dotfiles/.gitconfig ~/.gitconfig
