# General #
What are [dotFiles](http://linux.about.com/cs/linux101/g/dot_file.htm "dotFiles")
My dotfiles to make my life way way easier
The really good bash/zsh aliases, functions, etc are found in bash/dotfiles.symlink/

# Installation #
This WILL overwrite your existing dotfiles like .bashrc, .zshrc, etc but don't worry, it will make a copy of it as `.filename.pre-oh-my-zsh`
## Remote Installation ##
Alternatively, you can install this into ~/DotFiles remotely without Git using curl:
```shell
sh -c "`curl -fsSL https://raw.github.com/elliotboney/DotFiles/master/remote-setup.sh`"
```
Or, using wget:
```shell
sh -c "`wget -O - --no-check-certificate https://raw.githubusercontent.com/elliotboney/DotFiles/master/remote-setup.sh`"
```
## Local Installation ##
### Shell Script (New & Preferred) ###
```shell
git clone --recurse-submodules --depth 1 https://github.com/elliotboney/DotFiles.git DotFiles
cd DotFiles
./install.sh
```
### Ruby (Old and annoying cause you need ruby on fresh shells) ###
How to install the actual dotfiles.
```shell
# sudo apt-get install ruby # install ruby if you don't have it
git clone --recurse-submodules --depth 1 https://github.com/elliotboney/DotFiles.git DotFiles
cd DotFiles
rake
```
## Vim ##
I use [dein.vim](https://github.com/Shougo/dein.vim) for vim package management. The first time you open vim, you'll
see a notice about packages not being installed. To install them async, run `:call dein#install()` in vim.
## Local Dotfiles ##
There are a couple of files you can tweak to have local commands and packages setup.
`.zshrc.local` will run last adding any commands you want. It's currently just setup to start or reattach to an existing
screen session over ssh.
`.zshpackages` overrides the default packages for [oh-my-zsh](http://ohmyz.sh/) setup in `.zshrc`
# Requirements #
On a new debian server, this will install the requirements:
```shell
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install git zsh
```
### zsh ###
Zsh is a shell designed for interactive use, although it is also a powerful scripting language. Many of the useful
features of bash, ksh, and tcsh were incorporated into zsh; many original features were added.
[Read More](http://zsh.sourceforge.net/)
Install zsh for your OS, then run the chsh command.
##### OSX #####
```shell
brew install zsh
```
##### Linux #####
```shell
sudo aptitude install zsh
```
##### Change the shell #####
```shell
chsh -s zsh
```
### oh-my-zsh ###
A community-driven framework for managing your zsh configuration. Includes 180+ optional plugins (rails, git, OSX, hub,
capistrano, brew, ant, php, python, etc), over 120 themes to spice up your morning, and an auto-update tool so that makes
it easy to keep up with the latest updates from the community. [http://ohmyz.sh/](http://ohmyz.sh/)
