# Installation
## Installing the dependencies
### Linux
sudo apt install zsh tmux git curl tig
Optionally, if you want to use rxvt on X:
sudo apt install rxvt-unicode-256color
See [this blog post](https://blog.johnnovak.net/2016/11/13/a-minimalist-openbox-desktop-for-vim-freaks/)
for instructions on setting up a Vim-friendly desktop environment on
Crunchbang++.
### macOS
Using MacPorts:
sudo port install grep coreutils tmux tig
The system-provided **bash**, **zsh** and **git** versions are usually fine.
To set the MacPorts `zsh` as the default shell:
sudo chpass -s '/opt/local/bin/zsh' $USER
## Installing the dotfiles
Clone this repo somewhere (e.g. `~/.dotfiles`) and then do the following:
```
cd ~/.dotfiles
./install.sh
```
The script only creates symlinks and is completely non-destructive; it creates
backups of any existing files. You can also start it with `-d` for a dry-run.
If you are using a different location than `~/.dotfiles`, you must manually
set `DOTFILES` to point to the cloned repo in `~/.bashrc-pre` and
`~/.zshrc-pre` after the installation.
## Installing NeoVim
It's best to download the latest binaries directly from the [NeoVim releases
page](https://github.com/neovim/neovim/releases) on GitHub, then install it
into `~/bin/`.
## Installing NeoVim plugins
1. Execute the following:
```
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/wbthomason/packer.nvim\ &&
~/.local/share/nvim/site/pack/packer/start/packer.nvim
```
2. Start NeoVim, then execute `:PackerSync`
Refer to the [packer instructions](https://github.com/wbthomason/packer.nvim)
for further details
## .zshrc-pre suggestions
### macOS
```zsh
# Manually installed binaries
export PATH="$HOME/bin:$PATH"
# Make GNU sed the default
export PATH="/opt/local/libexec/gnubin/:$PATH"
# Aliases
alias grep=ggrep
alias vim=nvim
alias dircolors=gdircolors
# Use nvim when editing git commits
EDITOR=nvim
```
