Notes:

• I use dvorak keyboard layout, so if some configured hotkeys seem weird, you know why

TODO:

• Add keyboard configs
• Add task warrior configs
• Add /etc/ customizations

Install

• Clone the repo somewhere into $HOME. NOTE: if you clone somewhere else, stow will not work as expected (stow automatically copies files into ../)
• cd into the repository and run stow stow to install the ignore files
• myrepos is already configured to download, compile, and install many of the packages. It does not manage requirements, though.

Set up systemd files

• If you want to use my systemd files, first run stow systemd, then manually enable each one you want
• For example, you probably want sxhkd to start on boot, so run systemctl --user enable sxhkd to enable it on boot

Individual Package and Theme Information:

• LightDM theme is GlitchDM
• Oh-My-Zsh for plugins with theme powerlevel9k
• Vim is installed with sudo apt-get install vim-gtk. Install Vundle first for the rc file to work
• Terminal is Termite . For ubuntu users, this this script to compile easily
• Launcher is Rofi
• Polybar - make sure you edit the github token in the configs to match your own
• Gui Theming:
  • GTK Theme: Arc Dark
  • Icons: Xenlism Wildfire
  • Cursor: Breeze Hacked
• Notifier is Dunst
• Window manager is bspwm with sxhkd
• Firefox is installed with the following add-ons:
  • Stylish
    • Twily's Powerline Firefox CSS
    • Nyan Cat progress bar video player theme - absoluted mandatory!
  • Greasemonkey
  • uBlock Origin
  • Vimperator

Fonts:

• Nerd Fonts - mostly used for polybar
• Awesome Terminal Fonts - used in terminal / powerlevel9k
• Powerline Fonts - favorite is Sauce Code Pro

Other Cool Software

• xcape for adding extra functionality to modifier keys (ctrl as esc when pressed alone)
• mosh replaces SSH. Keeps the connection up and fixes input lag. Useful for poor connections
• thefuck
• tldr
• asdf like rvm but for everything
• glances
• pass
• i3lock-color
• xdo
• lsp - a more human friendly ls * too slow *
• expect - http://blog.robertelder.org/don-libes-expect-unix-automation-tool/
• vcspull - automatically keep multiple repos up to date * changed for myrepos
• myrepos - run mr update inside $HOME to update all tracked repos (first run stow myrepos)
• ** task spooler - ts (tsp on ubuntu) -- queues tasks to run one-at-a-time. Useful for youtube-dl

Hints:

• use xprop, then click on a window to get information about it. This is useful for configuring compton, sxhkd, bspwm, etc.
• use xev to get information on key or button names for use in sxhkd
