This is the dotfiles repo for my Arch installations.

Various bits of the code here has been lifted from other places and people, some of whom are lost from my memory. Where I remember I provide attribution. This is now my main Linux config.

• email function in zsh folder
• tman function in zsh folder
• .tmux files in project directories (including $HOME)
• tm function in .scripts/ to present a list of tmux sessions to pick from.

After messing around with two branches of these dotfiles I became sick of having to merge changes in one into the other, and vice versa. It was just annoying. Then I realised that the only real differences between the laptop and the desktop were keyboard and .xinitrc based. So, I decided to source in .xinitrc instead. The code blocks below are sample settings that should go into the desktop and laptop respectively.

On the laptop

setxkbmap -layout us -variant colemak -option caps:super && killall xcape 2>/dev/null ; xcape -e 'Super_L=Escape' &

On the desktop

setxkbmap -layout us -option caps:super && killall xcape 2>/dev/null ; xcape -e 'Super_L=Escape' &

Lots of fiddling to get this right, but in the end I've been able to replicate this on two machines so I think it's working. The requirements are:

sudo pacman -S khal vdirsyncer python-requests-oauthlib
