Configuration Files For Unix Environments
This repository contains configurations mostly for comfortable command line usage. The following are of particular note:
- vim 7.4
- tmux 1.8
- zsh
- irssi
- vimperator 3.8
Set up
Run the setup script to create links and download plugins:
./setup.sh
This setup is best used with:
- iTerm2 (Mac OS X), or
- ROXTerm (Linux)
- The Solarized colour palette.
- The Meslo font (derived from Menlo), patched for powerline.
Issues
Prompt in git repositories is slow in OS X Mavericks.
This is because of the Apple-provided git. Install git through homebrew. Seen from this stackexchange entry.
Move away from Solarized to a 256-colour friendly scheme?
Solarized, while spectacular to use, requires colour palette setup within the terminal emulator itself. When using an unprepared terminal emulator, results are often disappointing or unusable.
