README.md

my dotfiles managed via GNU stow

• first clone the at home like ~/dotfiles
• just do stow -v <appdir> to view each app

1. TMUX

   • requires tpm to be installed -- (git cloning some repo --maybe wont work with nixos)
   • after installing tpm - to install plugins
     • press prefix+I inside tmux

2. NVIM

   • install neovim from git repo with curl cmd
   • requires ripgrep for telescope
   • vim-plug installation (manual) -- switch to lazynvim, it can bootstrap itself
   • javascript ecosystem formatting requires prettierd installation
   • lazygit
   • tex viewing requires - zathura pdf viewer

3. bin

   • requires fzf for tmux-sessionizer, and zsh bindings
   • misc:
     • gf2 from NixOS-search - better frontend for gdb
     • watchexec for command running

4. ZSH

   • and making it as default shell
   • zoxide installation manual

5. Ubuntu setup

   • keyd installed manually and symlinked manually since the config file in system dir not user dir
     • keyd must be installed and reloaded for this to work
   • laptop touchpad in configured manually since gnome ui settings breaks in i3
   • memory watching alias always requires ps_mem installed

6. i3

   • used brightness script in bin for brightness control
   • for screenshot need these tools maim xclip xdotool normcap ---for ocr screenshot --only nix-env is working right now
   • not sure - maybe i need i3lock and i3status

7. CPP

   • when installing specific version clang, Eg: clang-12 - install also the gcc pair too - else include path will not be found ---could be wrong - maybe a stdlibc++ download issue not a gcc issue
   • install all clang tools with llvm - from script here - https://apt.llvm.org/
     • use ./llvm.sh 18 all
     • install clang-format
     • install clangd
       • do not use mason clangd - clangd itself is finicky maybe fully move to ccls? TODO:

TODO

• research how to use android as webcam with OBS-studio - not easy for free - but it should be???
• include/move ~/.profile into dotfiles to have ENV_VARS for any application
  • and remove the souring from zsh
