dotfiles/README.md

This is my personal dotfiles which contain config for vim, zsh, tmux, git, fzf etc;

macOS setup

Set up by using dotbot:

cd ~
git clone [email protected]:einverne/dotfiles.git
cd dotfiles
# to bootstrap config for vim, zsh, tmux, git, fzf, etc
make bootstrap
# under Linux desktop, install essential packages
make linux
# under macOS, install applications by brew

Log out and log in again, zinit will install all plugins automatically. If you use vi to edit file at first time, the vim-plug will install all vim plugins automatically.

Termux setup

pkg install make python vim git

git clone [email protected]:einverne/dotfiles.git
cd dotfiles
make termux

Tmux config

I take some Tmux config from gpakosz. If you want to learn more about tmux, you can check this article.

You can manually install tmux plugins by prefix + I.

Tmux need：

• tmux >= 2.1
• You should set $TERM environment for xterm-256color

Tmux config:

• You can use C-b as prefix, and use C-a as second choice
• prefix + | to split panel vertically， prefix + - split panel horizontally
• C-hjkl to switch pane
• prefix + Shift + HJKL to adjust pane size

I use Tmux Plugin Manager to manage tmux plugins, and by default I use following plugins:

set -g @plugin 'tmux-plugins/tpm'
set -g @plugin 'tmux-plugins/tmux-sensible'
set -g @plugin 'tmux-plugins/tmux-yank'
set -g @plugin 'tmux-plugins/tmux-resurrect'
set -g @plugin 'tmux-plugins/tmux-continuum'
set -g @plugin 'tmux-plugins/tmux-open'
set -g @plugin 'tmux-plugins/tmux-copycat'

fzf config

There are following alias in .zshrc :

• fe : open file using $EDITOR
• fo : open file Ctrl-o using open, Ctrl-e use $EDITOR
• fcd : cd path (fd to replace find)
• fkill : kill process
• tm : tm new tmux session
• fs : tmux attach tmux session
