customs

This repository contains custom configurations and scripts that have made terminal life easier and more enjoyable.

notes:

• all run commands are from repository root unless otherwise specified

keyboard ("take back CTRL")

Do yourself a massive favor and remap Ctrl to your Caps Lock key on your keyboard. The impact of this is > the . trick in vim. Instructions on how-to will be keyboard specific.

notes:

• I remapped my Caps Lock to [Fn-Alt-Tab] over two years ago now and haven't used it once

auto setups

You can find macos and linux automatic setup shell scripts under customs/scripts/.

tilix (linux)

The daily driver.

instructions

1. download Tilix
2. run dconf load '/com/gexperts/Tilix/' < ./tilix/tilix-settings.dconf

notes:

• change windows: [A-h] && [A-j]
• copy/paste: [C-S-c]/[C-S-v]

neovim

Tinkering with custom lua configs are a lot of fun (a worthwhile learning endeavor), but an absolute pain to maintain longterm. After courting several flavors of neovim, I've defaulted to using NvChad as a base due to maintainability and ease of integrating my own custom vim configs.

instructions

1. install NvChad
2. run cp -rf nvim/custom ~/.config/nvim/lua/custom && nvim

notes:

• change buffers: [C-h] && [C-j]
• normal copy: [Cmd-y]
• insert paste: [C-S-v]
• copilot is disabled by default
