The `${(*)...}` parameter expansion flag was only introduced in
zsh-5.8.1.2-test, but EXTENDED_GLOB is needed for the `(#m)` globbing
flag. To support older zsh versions too, solve this by using a subshell
in which EXTENDED_GLOB is temporarily enabled.
My dotfiles
This is a collection of the configuration files and scripts I use for various tools and environments.
Although some files support macOS, most of them assume that they are used on a GNU/Linux system. The systems I use include an Artix, a Manjaro and an Ubuntu installation. All of them running i3wm and the arch-based systems without a DE. I use my fork of st as terminal, zsh as shell and neovim as text editor.
The repository mimics my $HOME, trying to conform to the XDG Base Directory
Specification as close as possible. An exception is etc/ -> /etc/, as well
as meta/ and some other files in the root of the repository (e.g. this README
or the LICENSE) which are not in my $HOME.
The most interesting files are probably in .config/zsh and .config/vim.
Installation
The repository content can be installed via dotbot. All existing files which would be overridden are first packed into an archive for backup (see meta/archive) and then dotbot places symlinks in the appropriate places for the different files and folders in this repository.
To start the installation run:
$ ./meta/install
