1#+TITLE: My configurations
2#+AUTHOR: Case Duckworth
3
4Here are my system configurations. There are many like them but these are mine.
5
6* Installation
7
8Clone this repo to ~$XDG_CONFIG_HOME~, which in [[https://github.com/duckwork/etc/blob/main/profile/profile][profile/profile]] I've set to
9~$HOME/etc~. See that file for other XDG directories I've set to non-standard
10places. (Just in case something hard-codes ~$XDG_CONFIG_HOME~, I also symlink
11them in =bootstrap.sh=, which see below.)
12
13Instead of GNU Stow or a Makefile, I use a short =bootstrap.sh= script that reads
14=bootstrap.manifest=, a tab-separated file mapping repo paths to paths in ~$HOME~.
15It only contains files for programs that [[https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/XDG_Base_Directory#Support][aren't XDG-compliant]], so it should stay
16short.
17
18Anyway, run =bootstrap.sh= in this directory and you should be set.
19
20* Programs to install
21
22** Required
23
24- bash + readline :: I prefer this shell over others, since I don't do anything
25 super wild in the terminal nowadays anyway
26- git :: Kind of required to do anything with this repo
27- keychain :: Manages =ssh-agent=
28
29** Extra
30
31- mbsync :: For mail.
32
33* Notes
34
35- My [[https://tildegit.org/acdw/emacs][emacs configuration is elsewhere]], but it goes in ~$XDG_CONFIG_HOME~ as well.
36
37* License
38
39Everyone is permitted to do whatever with this software, without limitation.
40This software comes without any warranty whatsoever, but with two pieces of
41advice:
42
43- Don't hurt yourself.
44- Make good choices.
