Dotfiles

These are dotfiles for my Arch Linux / bspwm setup. Also included are scripts and configurations for other daily-driver tools.

Demo of scratchpad pane in bspwm running tmux inside a zutty terminal; scratchpad toggle is bound toCtrl-/, Ctrl-Alt-/ cycles through different panel sizes. Check out scratchy.sh to see how this works.

• ZSH is my default shell everywhere. Few simple tips and tricks:

  • Use zcompile -M to compile your zsh scripts to .zwc bytecode files. This can speed up stuff which seldom need updates, such as zshrc, other zsh configuration and plugin scripts.
  • Put this little snippet in your zshrc for easier directory navigation using .. and ...

    # .. is like an alias for cd, e.g ".. some_directory"# standalone .. moves up one level i.e. cd ....() {
    [[ -z"$1" ]] &&cd ../ ||cd"$1"
    }
    # ... number moves up that many levels# e.g: if you're in /usr/local/bin/abc and type ... 3, you'll move up 3 levels and land in /usr# ... without any arguments works like "cd -", i.e. goes to previous working directory...() {
    [[ -z"$1" ]] &&cd - ||cd$(repeat ${1}printf'../')
    }

• rxvt-unicode in daemon mode (urxvtd) was my terminal for a long time. These days I use the excellent Zutty terminal. Xresources configuration for both are located here.

• My nvim dotfiles include sysinit.vim, custom colors and a few plugins.

• w3m configuration, keymaps and CGI scripts are here.

• MSYS2 dotfiles can be found in a separate repo here.

• See next section for full list.
