dots/README.md

# dots

My dotfiles.

## Installation

Install [chezmoi](https://chezmoi.io):

```
# pacman -S chezmoi
```

Clone then apply these dotfiles:

```
chezmoi init dogeystamp/dotfiles --apply
```

After, install some packages. A list is provided in the `programs` file.
This list encompasses all packages needed for a full system, including utilities and games.
Feel free to pick and choose which packages you want.
A script is also provided with `programs-python` to install Python packages via pipx.
Package availability and their names **differ based on the distribution**: these are for Arch Linux and its derivatives.

For a full desktop experience,
you should also build the programs in `suckless/` by running `./compile-suckless.sh` as root.
Alternatively, build the programs with the README instructions in the directory.

Some features are enabled or disabled based on a "system profile":
chezmoi will prompt you for a choice.

### Notes

- `.local/bin/keyboard.sh` provides changes I like, such as swapping escape and caps lock, which you should remove if you don't need.

- My qutebrowser configuration emphasizes privacy over usability, and you might need to edit it to suit your needs if you want to use it.

- Neovim plugins are installed [via git submodule](https://hiphish.github.io/blog/2021/12/05/managing-vim-plugins-without-plugin-manager/)
  rather than through conventional means. This has less complexity than a plugin manager since I already manage all my dotfiles under Git.
  Plugins are declared in `.gitmodules`.
