my vim, git, and other dotfiles

dotfiles

TL;DR

git clone https://github.com/mikedfunk/dotfiles.git ~/.dotfiles --recursive && ~/.dotfiles/install.sh

My Bash, Vim, Git, and other dotfiles. Now with 24-bit color support in neovim! I've commented all config files and install scripts indicating why I'm doing what I'm doing. Check the install directory to see what each install task does.

Directions

1. If on mac, install XCode and ensure you run it at least once. You need the full XCode, not just the command line tools for MacVim and Terminal Notifier.
2. Ensure git is installed with which git. On Mac just do git status somewhere and it will offer to install the XCode Command Line Tools.
3. Install dotfiles: git clone https://github.com/mikedfunk/dotfiles.git ~/.dotfiles --recursive && ~/.dotfiles/install.sh
4. Or pick an install script in the install directory and run them one at a time.
5. If you are using iTerm
6. install powerline fonts from the support directory.
7. Go to iTerm preferences -> Profiles -> Default -> Text -> set Regular Font and Non-ASCII Font to 12 pt Meslo LG M DZ Regular for Powerline located here.
8. Go to iTerm preferences -> Appearance -> Window -> check Hide Scrollbar and Resize Control.
9. Install some iterm2 color schemes from the support directory.
10. Load one from Preferences -> Profiles -> Default -> Colors -> Load Presets...
11. To get Vim plugins installed, run vim from the command line, then type :PlugInstall.
12. To install tmux plugins: when inside tmux, hit ctrl-A then shift-I
