README
My personal dotfiles managed with GNU [stow]. Previously I used a [Makefile].
All dependencies are installed using [Ansible] in [this repo][machine-setup].
Since you cannot use ansible on Windows as a host machine, I have opted to keep
all Windows "dotfiles" in [another repo][windows-config] and resort to ad hoc
scripts.
# Modifier Keys
Though I would prefer for the key directly to the left of the space bar, call
this key `X`, to be the mod key used for tiling window managers, I have settled
on the following set of modifier keys.
| Mac (Before) | Linux (Before) | Mac (After) | Linux (After) |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| CAPS | CAPS | CTRL | CTRL |
| CTRL | CTRL | CTRL | ALT |
| OPT | SUP | OPT | SUP |
| CMD | ALT | CMD | CTRL |
This allows consistent use of key `X` for the following:
| Key combo | Action |
| --- | --- |
| `X + c` | copy |
| `X + x` | cut |
| `X + v` | paste |
| `X + w` | close browser tab |
| `X + q` | close focused window |
given the constraints that
- On Linux: `mod` must be `mod4` (a.k.a. `super` ) since `alt` is used by other
programs.
- On MacOS: `mod` must be `option` (a.k.a. `alt`) since `cmd` is used all over
the OS.
I used to map caps lock to escape for vim but later realize that relearning to
use `ctrl-[` for escape is far superior. The iPad does not have an escape key
for example. Have caps lock as control allows much easier access to `ctrl-f`,
`ctrl-b`, `ctrl-d`, `ctrl-u`, `ctrl-o`, and `ctrl-i` in vim as well. Also its
way easier to copy and paste into a terminal not having to stretch your pinky
so far.
