This repository contains the files necessary to implement my terminal and vim preferences on a Unix based system + my jupyter and R snippets and shortcuts
The steps on this page install everything except my vim-snippets. If you want them, first install the rest by following the present steps, then go to the vim-snippets directory and follow the steps there.
- Make a backup of your dotfiles, e.g.
mkdir ~/dotfiles_backup
cp ~/.?* ~/dotfiles_backup # copy all dotfiles to the new directory
- If some of the dotfolders included in the present repo (
.jupyter,.R) already exist in your home folder, you need to delete them
rm -r ~/.jupyter
rm -r ~/.R
- Clone the repository in a local folder, for example in the home folder ~
git clone https://github.com/jonathan-doenz/jon-dotfiles ~
- Run the dotfiles_syncker.sh script
~/jon-dotfiles/scripts/dotfiles_syncker_zsh.sh # this replaces the dotfiles in home folder with a symlink to the files in ~/jon-dotfiles repository
- Source the fresh .zshrc file for the preferences to take place and you are good to go!
source ~/.zshrc
- For all the in-depth customizations, follow the guidelines in the directory guidelines.
