I noticed that in your dotfiles repository, specifically within the .config/zsh directory, only the .zshrc and .p10k.zsh files are provided. The .zshrc file depends on several plugins, such as zsh-syntax-highlighting, zsh-history-substring-search, you-should-use, and zsh-auto-suggestions. I'm curious as to why these plugins are not included. Do you install them externally?

I am asking this primarily to organize my own dotfiles better, and I am curious about your approach.
For instance, the you-should-use plugin is a simple .zsh file that could easily be included in the repository. However, other plugins, like zsh-auto-suggestions, consist of multiple interconnected .zsh files.

What do you think is the best approach to organize these plugins more efficiently?

• Exclude all plugins and manually install each one. This approach would complicate setting up a new system with the dotfiles due to the additional manual steps.
• Include only the single-file plugins, excluding the others. This still introduces some manual overhead.
• Include all plugins, which can be challenging as it requires determining which files are essential. Some have many files, that wouldn't not need to be in the dotfiles repository.
• Use submodules for some of the plugins.

I've copied you waybar config and CSS but the buttons don't do anything because the binaries and there. I've found them on the repo but where do I put them on my pc?

The purple leaves one is what I'd like to know about.

I followed the instructions on the wiki to enable image preview using kitty and it works! unfortunately, plain text files are not previewed anymore. Did I do something wrong or it is an intended behavior?. If I go back to a vanilla config, plain text files are previewed correctly.

Really liked the bar you had in the last videos (the videos too), but it isn't in the repo. Do you mind sharing it?

Btw, do you use the wayland fork of rofi or the original one? Because I was having some problems building the wayland fork from source and the original is in the official packages. Do you know if there are any practical differences?

HI Eric
I have copied your lf files for kitty to my lf folder and changed the directory from eric to my name in the lf_kitty_previews temp directory line 12.
But when i run kitty and us lf to view images nothing happens?

I use PowerShell (I'm on 7.3.6) and am attempting to setup LF to play nice. The file etc/lfrc.ps1.example is a good start, however the line:
map <enter> shell
gives the error:
unknown mapping: <enter>
Which, to me seems like an issue PowerShell has with the <> characters. Googling led me to many other PowerShell users who happened to stumble on a command with a < in it, and needing to instead run the command using cmd. Obviously that's not going to be the necessary solution here. I think just an option for a different alias to without to <> characters could work?

It does seem that using
map '<enter>' shell
may be a work around, but I'm still testing.

whoops, somehow posted this in wrong place

warn: Dropping unmatched character  (U+f886) in ' Rokas Yan - Vakar Vakare'

I've installed all the fonts in the config, fc-match finds all of them correctly. The icon in nowplaying still does not work though.

Hey Mr Murphy.
I followed your YT video 'How to Set Up Dual Monitors with BSPWM + Polybar'.
You've gotten me closer to the desired set up, thanks for that 👍

I also finally got FiraCode displaying as it should 👍

When HDMI1 is not connected, on eDP1 it works as expected. Pressing mod+1 goes to 1 as intended.
2=2
3=3
4=4

But I'm having this strange issue.

When HDMI1 is connected, pressing mod+1 no longer goes to 1 as intended, it jumps to #5 on HDMI1.
2=6
3=7
4=8
So weird!

I set this up the same as yours.

bspc monitor eDP1 -d 1 2 3 4
bspc monitor HDMI1 -d 5 6 7 8

Could you take a look at my configs when you have the time?
I did follow through with autorandr as you showed, but the issue still persisted, so I decided to start over.

.config/bspwm/bspwmrc

.config/polybar/config.ini

.config/polybar/launch.sh

Appreciate any insight you can share.

you have your username in your config files, however what you should do is do ~/ instead of /home/username/ as to make it so people dont have to manually change it

Hi Eric,

I am using Arch for some time and I like to tinker with code, even though I am not a professional programmer.

Setting up battery notification for i3 was quite a hassle, but your video on youtube and your code examples were what got me going in the end.

I don't know if it's relevant, but I may have encountered just one inconsistency in one of your scripts, CHARGINGNOTIFY, at least when using it on my machine : when plugging the battery in or out, the notification won't show, and when I ran:

   /usr/bin/su rainer -c /home/rainer/.local/bin/chargingnotify 1, 

I received the following error message :

  ```
      -eq unary operator expected  
     ./chargingnotify: line 11: [: -eq: unary operator expected
     ./chargingnotify: line 13: [: -eq: unary operator expected

The solution was to put the respective lines into double brackets, like so:  

        [[ $BATTERY_CHARGING -eq 0 ]];
        [[ $BATTERY_CHARGING -eq 1 ]];
         
and only then plugin notification would appear .... 

I found the solution [here](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/57984248/eq-unary-operator-expected) on stackoverflow. 

I wasn't sure if it was a good idea to file an issue, since arch users are probably expected to be able to help themselves with small issues ... :-)
