dotfiles

My dotfiles ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. I've tried to use as much native zsh code and as few dependencies as possible. This keeps this setup snappy.

How Snappy?

~  TIMEFMT=$'real %E\tuser %U\tsys %S'
~  repeat 10 {time zsh -i -c exit}
real 0.04s      user 0.03s      sys 0.02s

60ms for a tmux pane split is nice :-)

What does it contain?

• Vim is powered by Plug
• Zsh is powered by zgenom.
• Tmux bar code is generated by TmuxLine.vim

This setup will work on both OSX and Linux (and may work on other platforms).

Requirements

• You have zsh installed (known to work from 4.3.17 to 5.3.1)
• You have tmux installed (2.1+ or you will have issues with the supplied .tmux.conf )
• You have vim installed (optionally compiled with ruby and python support)
• You have ruby, ruby-devel, python and python-pip installed - if you wish to use Command-T plugin in vim
• You will need a Powerline capable font
• Exuberant Ctags, as TagBar will not work with GNU ctags. On OSX: brew install ctags fail.

Installation

git clone https://github.com/tuurlijk/dotfiles "${ZDOTDIR:-$HOME}/dotfiles"
cd "${ZDOTDIR:-$HOME}/dotfiles"
./setup.sh

chsh -s /bin/zsh

The installer will also install zgenom for you.

Troubleshooting

It might be the case that the Command-T vim plugin causes a segfault on your system when you use the bootstrap script. This is due to the fact that it was compiled for a different architecture than your vim. See the Command-T manual for instructions.

Specifically:

 First you have to check the platform Vim was built for:

  vim --version
  ...
  Compilation: gcc ... -arch i386 ...
  ...

and make sure you use the correct ARCHFLAGS during compilation:

  export ARCHFLAGS="-arch i386"
  make
