Dotfiles

My dotfiles are optimized to use the mouse as little as possible and to make navigating the terminal as pleasant as possible on macOS.

Highlights:

• Alacritty
• Hasklug Nerd Font
• Tmux + Neovim integration (navigate using ctrl-hjkl between tmux/nvim panels)
• Brewfile
• Karabiner and Hammerspoon (map caps-lock to esc, move/resize windows, quick shortcuts)

Installation

There is an install.sh that you should be able to just run, but be sure to go through it and review what you actually want, because it is pretty aggressive and not so well tested.

Usage

Tmux

I use TPM for maintaining plugins, after you start tmux for the first time, you need to press ctrl-a I to install the plugins.

Start with tmux new -s work or tmux attach-session -t work if you have an already running session.

• ctrl-a c to create a new tab
• ctrl-a - to split vertically
• ctrl-a | to split horizontally
• ctrl-a x to close a panel
• ctrl-a , to rename a tab
• ctrl-a C to clear the screen
• ctrl-k/j/k/l to navigate between panels
• ctrl-a 1/2/3... to switch to a different tab

NVim

I use LanguageClient for talking to the LSP Servers.

• ctrl-k/j/k/l to navigate between panels
• \w save
• \ew open current directory viewer
• \es open current directory viewer in vertical split

Rust utils

I use Rust re-implementations of many standard utilities.

• fd replacement for find
