Quick Start

Step 1 (iTerm and keyboard shortcuts)

Use ctrl-a to move to start if line, ctrl-e to move to end and alt-arrow to move around in iTerm: Go to iTerm2 (in the menu bar) > Settings... > Profiles > Keys (not Preferences... > Keys) On current versions (3.14+) you then switch to the Key Mappings tab Press Presets... dropdown button. Select Natural Text Editing

Copy everything you highlight (no need for ctrl-c) to clipboard: Edit -> Copy mode

Remap caps lock to ctrl Mac->System Setting->Keyboard->Keyboard Shortcuts->Modifier Keys->Change caps lock to control

Step 2 (Use these dotfiles)

Clone the repo

git clone git@github.com:er537/dotfiles.git ~/git/dotfiles

Step 3

Install dependencies (e.g. oh-my-zsh and related plugins), you can specify options to install specific programs: tmux, zsh, note that your dev-vm will already have tmux and zsh installed so you don't need to provide any options in this case, but you may need to provide these if you are installing locally.

# Install just the dependencies (If already have tmux or zsh)
./install.sh
# Install dependencies + tmux & zsh (if local or on linux without tmux or zsh)
./install.sh --tmux --zsh

Step 4

Deploy (e.g. source aliases for .zshrc, apply oh-my-zsh settings etc..)

# Deploy on linux
./deploy.sh   

Step 5 (Optional)

This set of dotfiles uses the powerlevel10k theme for zsh, this makes your terminal look better and adds lots of useful features, e.g. env indicators, git status etc. This repo comes with a preconfigured powerlevel10k theme in ./config/p10k.zsh but you can reconfigure this by running p10k configure which will launch an interactive window.
