Configuration files for linux

Shortcuts have been designed to be used with a Bépo keyboard layout. Here are the tools included.

• i3wm
• tmux
• vim
• less
• sublime text
• ranger
• zshrc

Graphical and terminal application configurations are split in two different folders.

# with gui bindings
make link

# only terminal binding
make term-link

A Dockerfile is implemented to build an environment with only terminal based applications.

# build
make docker

# run
docker run --rm -ti --name dotfiles -e TERM=$TERM -v $(pwd):/home/dev/Lab lobre/dotfiles

There is a script to generate an ISO bootable version with Ubuntu 18.04 desktop, all software pre-baked and with configurations already set up. It runs from withing a Docker container.

In order to be able to launch it, you need to fit the requirements:

• make sure to have at least 10gb available on disk (/var partition)
• you should be running it from an Ubuntu 18 system (same as the one being generated)

It can take up to half an hour to generate. You can them burn this ISO onto a bootable USB key or use it with a virtualization software.

make iso

ddrescue can be used to create a live USB version of the ISO.

sudo ddrescue lobre.iso /dev/sdX --force -D

Shortcuts tend to be consistent between apps. Here is a table listing a few of them.

Colors are generated from a base 16 template. See .Xresources to check colors. These colors are propagated from X resources to other apps.

• Uxrvt
• Rofi
• i3
• Polybar
• Dunst

Colors can be easily visualized using https://terminal.sexy.

A pached font from nerdfonts is used. It contains a large list of icons. In order to copy them into configuration files, the tool gucharmap can be handy.

The configuration of vscode is saved in this repo but the list of extensions does not save automatically. Here is the command to update the list of extensions.

code --list-extensions | xargs -L 1 echo code --install-extension >| graphical/.config/Code/extensions.sh

This script can then be used to restore and install extensions.
