shawchina / dotfiles Goto Github PK

This repository hosts the dotfiles i use in my daily life.The script install.sh does two things:

1. backup your config files(if exist) to ~/dotfiles_old.
2. copy my config files for awesomewm & tmux & vim & urxvt & zsh to you.

• Before installation, awesomewm & tmux & vim & rxvt-unicode & zsh are supposed to be installed.
• Because i use vundle as the Vim plugin manager, you need to install Vundle and Vundle is an awesome plugin manager for Vim.(the install.sh will help you do this if you didn't)
• Set the default shell to zsh if it is not the current shell.You also need to install oh-my-zsh for your zsh's configuration.(the install.sh will help you do this if you didn't)
• Theme uses font FontAwesome, in archlinux you can run sudo pacman -S ttf-font-awesome to install it.
• Install Monaco & adobe-source-han-sans, or set URxvt.font in Xresources to what you want to use. In archlinux you can install these fonts by run sudo pacman -S ttf-monaco adobe-source-han-sans-cn-fonts.
• The pkglist in the file is a list that lists packages installed in my computer, you can ignore it.

git clone https://github.com/Trytwice/dotfiles.git ~/dotfiles && cd ~/dotfiles && ./install.sh

• WallPaper:The system's wallpaper is ~/.config/awesome/themes/powerarrow-dark/wall.png, delete it and move you new wallpaper here and rename it as wall.png.
• Music widget:To use the music widget, you need install mpd and mpc.Search ArchWiKi for more details.
• Mail widget:To use the mail widget, you need config the /themes/powerarrow-dark/theme.lua, If you are in china, mail widget will not work when the mail server is gmail, edit the head_command variable in /lain/widget/imap.lua will fix this(proxychains, polipo, etc).
