Kurt Preston Dot Files

Provides an organized, version controlled, portable system configuration for *nix systems (including MacOS). Notably, in includes shell customizations and aliases, custom VI commands and plugins, and the oh-my-zsh project.

Installation

  git clone git://github.com/KurtPreston/dotfiles
  cd dotfiles
  rake install

Note: if you already have some commands in .bashrc or .bash_profile you would like to keep, just place them in the file ~/.localrc.

Theme and Plugin Selection

To set a theme, set the name to the ZSH_THEME environment variable in the ~/.localrc file. For example, add the following line:

    ZSH_THEME="robbyrussell"

The Dot Files enable many plugins by default, but to enable additional oh-my-zsh plugins, list them in the plugins environment variable in ~/.localrc. For example:

    plugins=(django osx)
