Installation

WIP

1. Clone this repo to ~/.config
2. cd .config
3. Run sh install.sh This script will install chunkwm & skhd from brew. It will also create symlinks for the configuration files used by Vim and chunkwm and the autoload directory.

After the script is complete, you should run these commands to add chunkwm to services.

$ brew services start chunkwm
$ brew services start skb

If you do not wish to use chunkwm, you can just uninstall these packages again..

Shell

Powerline

Here's a good resource on installing Powerline and configuring it for bash: https://medium.com/@ITZDERR/how-to-install-powerline-to-pimp-your-bash-prompt-for-mac-9b82b03b1c02

Note that you can skip the Vim parts, since this config uses it's own status line file.

Tmux

No tmux config is currently present in this configuration.

Notes about iTerm2

Remember to set the font to a powerline compatible font in iTerm > Preferences as well.

Want to make your own changes that doesnt affect the repository?

Create a file named .vimrc.local in the ~/.config directory, all settings made in that file will overwrite the settings in this repo.

Other notes

1. Why no Powerline in Vim?

Instead of Powerline i included the .vimrc.statusline, it's a "ghetto" powerline and it looks about the same if a powerline font is configured for the terminal. But why? Well basically Powerline kills performance in Vim and for some it's to the point where it makes it unusable.

2. What is TeaCode?

It's an awesome snippet manager for Mac OS, you can read more about it here: https://www.apptorium.com/teacode If you don't want the plugin installed you should be able to do an Unplug 'dustinknopoff/Teacode-Vim-Extension in your .vimrc.local file.

Todo

1. Write a very simple installation script that creates the symlinks needed.
2. Also include python setup etc. In the installation section of this readme
