dotfiles

Warning

copyconfig.sh (CTRL + ALT + U) only works if this dotfiles repository sits in ~/Desktop/. The source path is hardcoded into the script.

Caution

install & systemsetup ARE OUTDATED. USE WITH CAUTION

disclaimer

these are my personal dotfiles.

if you are thinking about installing them, keep in mind:

• they are not (yet) designed to be installed on other systems.
• they are designed along my personal preferences, including things like my directory-structure, monitor config, aur packages etc.
• they are always a work in progress, constantly evolving and rarely error-free.

Note

you are welcome to use my configs or scripts as a reference for your own :)
