Duncans dotfiles

dotfiles and scripts for new linux install

Quickstart

Step 1 - Run install.sh for first time

makes a backup folder /dev/dotfiles_old

copies managed dotfiles to backup folder

installs standard packages I use

Step 2 - modify scripts and dotfiles

Always modify files in /dev/dotfiles NOT in home

Use git to manage versions

Step 3 - deploy latest scripts to home

run install.sh again to deploy managed scripts back to home

Scripts

Filename	description
p	Script to be used for quick jumping around to project folders

install.sh	backs up existing files, then deploys from dotfiles folder

install.sh

Deploys the scripts and dotfiles from the master folder ( ~/dev/dotfiles ) to home
