Cameron's Dot Files

Forked from ryanb/dotfiles.

Requirements

1. Bash 4+ (and bash_completion, if desired)

Installation

Simply run the following commands:

git clone --recursive git://github.com/cspicker/dotfiles ~/.dotfiles
cd ~/.dotfiles
bash install.bash

The install script will create symbolic links to files in your home directory (.bashrc, .bash_profile, etc.). If files exist at these paths, you will be prompted to handle the conflict by overwriting, skipping or aborting the installation.

I recommend moving any existing shell configuration into ~/.localrc, which will be sourced if it exists.

Environment

I have used these files on Mac, Linux and FreeBSD systems. I recommend putting any system-specific configuration, as well as anything else you don't want in your repo in ~/.localrc.

Features

• A nice prompt
• Bash history synchronization for multiple shells (via exploiting PROMPT_COMMAND)
• A place to put emacs config and user-provided bash completions
• Some helpful aliases (including git)
• Configuration files for tmux, screen and the python interpreter
• Mac-friendly inputrc file
