README
This repo contains the the dotfiles I use on my MacOS machine to make my life
easier. They are heavily influenced (read: cut and paste with changes)
by [Mathias Bynens' dotfiles
repo](https://github.com/mathiasbynens/dotfiles). Feel free to use
mine, but this repo is more for my personal use. See his if you want
_way_ more options.

## To use
To use these files, just copy theme to your home, `~`, directory:
```
## inside dotfiles/ directory
cp .aliases .bash_profile .bash_prompt .bashrc .exports .gitconfig ~
```
## `.extra`
Not included in this repo is `.extra`, which sets up my personal git
identity. Right now, it looks like this (with my personal information
substituted in the `<>`):
```bash
# name
GIT_AUTHOR_NAME=" "
GIT_COMMITTER_NAME="$GIT_AUTHOR_NAME"
git config --global user.name "$GIT_AUTHOR_NAME"
# email
GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL=""
GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL="$GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL"
git config --global user.email "$GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL"
```
## Zenburn theme
The `PS1` prompt color scheme in `.bash_prompt` is based on the
[Zenburn theme](http://kippura.org/zenburnpage/), which I use with
both Emacs and terminal. [The terminal version can be downloaded
here.](https://github.com/bdesham/zenburn-terminal)
