This repository includes all of my custom dotfiles. They should be cloned to
your home directory so that the path is ~/dotfiles/
. The included setup
script creates symlinks from your home directory to the files which are located
in ~/dotfiles/
.
The setup script is smart enough to back up your existing dotfiles into a
~/dotfiles_old/
directory if you already have any dotfiles of the same name as
the dotfile symlinks being created in your home directory.
I also prefer zsh
as my shell of choice. As such, the setup script will also
clone the oh-my-zsh
repository from my GitHub. It then checks to see if zsh
is installed. If zsh
is installed, and it is not already configured as the
default shell, the setup script will execute a chsh -s $(which zsh)
. This
changes the default shell to zsh, and takes effect as soon as a new zsh is
spawned or on next login.
So, to recap, the install script will:
- Back up any existing dotfiles in your home directory to
~/dotfiles_old/
- Create symlinks to the dotfiles in
~/dotfiles/
in your home directory - Clone the
oh-my-zsh
repository from my GitHub (for use withzsh
) - Check to see if
zsh
is installed, if it isn't, try to install it. - If zsh is installed, run a
chsh -s
to set it as the default shell.
git clone git://github.com/dpastoor/dotfiles ~/dotfiles
cd ~/dotfiles

After installation, Vundle can be used to load plugins via:
git clone https://github.com/gmarik/Vundle.vim.git ~/.vim/bundle/Vundle.vim
Then launch vim and type
:PluginInstall
To get YouCompleteMe working for completions need to get CMake
$ wget http://www.cmake.org/files/v3.3/cmake-3.3.0-rc2.tar.gz
$ tar xzf cmake-3.3.0-rc2.tar.gz
$ cd cmake-3.3.0-rc2
Configuration:
In order to configure cmake before installation, run command below.
$ ./configure --prefix=/opt/cmake
We basically instructed the install script to install CMake in /opt/cmake.
Compilation:
$ make
Installation:
#make install
