Dotfiles

========

My dotfiles, a constantly evolving set of configurations which I arguably spend

too much time tweaking, but they make the command line feel like home, so here

we are.

Vim

---

I do love me some Vim, that's for sure. I run Vim with [vim-plug][] to manage

plugins. I have _many_ plugins and customizations (stored in `vim/rcfiles` and

`vim/rcplugins` respectively) which may not be everyone's cup of tea, but I sure

do love a sharp tool.

Zsh

---

I run zsh as my shell, finding it to be a great middle ground between adding

additional niceties and features, while remaining a largely compatible shell

scripting target. I use [zplug][] to manage zsh plugins (like the amazing

[zsh-syntax-highlighting][] plugin), and I use [pure][] as my prompt.

Tmux

----

Tmux allows me to combine processes, shells, and Vim in any way I need for the

project at hand. I'm able to build my own IDE-like experience at the command

line while still using the best tool for any given job. I'm a big fan.

Core to my tmux work is the combination of two plugins that bring Vim & tmux

together, [vim-tmux-navigator][] for navigation, and [vim-tmux-runner][] for

sending commands from vim to tmux.

fzf

---

Lastly have [fzf][], "a command-line fuzzy finder". In the end this is a much

smaller component being just a shell command, but I find I use it across each of

Vim, zsh, and tmux, and it has become absolutely core to many of my workflows,

thus it gets top billing.
