Introduction

This is how I start to setup a new unix-type machine:

  1. clone this repo once git is installed
  2. make a symlink from my homedir to the things here
  3. find out what I forgot, and add it to the repo
  4. GOTO 1

Other ideas

This is a pretty simple idea, but "why don't you just..."

  • use docker images?
  • use chef?
  • use puppet?
  • use XYZZY Configuratron?

They're too complex to do with a minimal OpenBSD system. KISS, and use those abstraction layers when you're building a deployable application. I want to be up and running in 5 minutes flat, and be able to do it from a USB device on a tiny embedded system with no network access.

TODO

  1. write a Makefile and whatever tools make it easy to get a system online QUICKLY.

Tmux Plugins

There is a git submodule for tpm. Run git submodule init to clone the repository, then make a symlink: ln -sf dotfiles-dir/tpm ~/.tmux/plugins/tpm Once you get the symlink garbage sorted out, reload your tmux configuration tmux source-file ~/.tmux.conf
