My Debian Dotfiles

This is my Debian dotfiles (backup). Configuration files, useful scripts and aliases for my work, backgrounds, notes, hotkeys, various development tools, color schemes, etc. I’m using the default GTK themes/icons from Debian - nothing special (see pkgs.list).

I'm lazy, so there's a script init which initialize/configure my work environment automatically. I am using the latest stable version of Debian with Xfce.

The repository is updated frequently.

• Install the environment using a script:

Usage information:

$ ./init --help

Attention. Be careful when running this script on your main machine, it does not create backup dotfiles and may erase your current working environment.

Clean home, update /etc/apt/sources.list, install dependencies packages:

$ ./init --clean-home --sources.list --install-packages

Configure $HOME environment:

$ ./init --bashrc --bash-completion --local-bin --local-share

Configure Xfce environment and colors:

$ ./init --xfce --xfce-terminal --dircolors --unclutter

Text editors, terminal multiplexer, debuger, file navigation:

$ ./init --vim --vifm --tmux --mc --mousepad --gdb

RSS feed reader:

$ ./init --newsboat

The script has other options, but I think you won't need it.

Scripts

Location: .local/bin/

Few examples:

multi-git.sh - manages all specified Git projects (simple Git operations).

crypt.sh - encrypt/decrypt regular file with sensitive information (using a password).

deb-clean.sh - remove 'rc' (removed but not purged) packages plus debs autoremove and autoclean.

apt-recent-installs.sh - parses /var/log/apt/history.log to extract installation dates and package lists.

source-uris.sh - get source uris.
