Written in POSIX shell with only basic UNIX utilities\nas dependencies, it's meant to be able to be pulled down on any machine\nto quickly get access to the programs you need, root access not required.\n\nNowadays I personally use it for miscellaneous things not commonly\nfound in distros. Not meant for public use.\n\nMaybe it will be helpful to you too.  \nFeel free to open github issues/PR as needed.\n\n\\- Mitch\n\n---\n\n## Installation\n\n```\ngit clone https://github.com/mitchweaver/bonsai\ncd bonsai\nmake\nmake install\n```\n\n## Environment\n\n```\ncat \u003e\u003e ~/.profile \u003c\u003cEOF\nif [ -d ~/.bonsai ] ; then\n    export PATH=\"${HOME}/.bonsai/bin:$PATH\"\n    export MANPATH=\"${HOME}/.bonsai/share/man:$MANPATH\"\nfi\nEOF\n```\n\n```\n# generate skeleton config files\nbs a @cfg\n```\n\n## Usage\n\n```\nbs -h\n```\n\n## Notice\n\nCurrently only targeting amd64.\n\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fmitchweaver%2Fbonsai","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fmitchweaver%2Fbonsai","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fmitchweaver%2Fbonsai/lists"}
