ZSH Configuration

The ZSH configuration is completely modularized to make management easier. The following are brief descriptions of each file:

• zshrc: The main ZSH configuration sourced for non-login interactive terminals.
• zprofile: The main ZSH configuration sourced for login interactive terminals. Also sources zshrc.
• functions.zsh: A file containing function definitions for utilities.
• aliases.zsh: A file containing aliases sourced into the terminal.
• exports.zsh: A file containing all exports not found in zprofile.
• initializations.zsh: A file containing initialization code for various tasks such as RVM directories, pyenv, etc.
• ps1.zsh: Defines the terminal prompt.
• keybinds.zsh: Defines keybinds. Easier than managing a dotfile for every different system you might try.

Special keybinds

Caps lock will be mapped to escape using xmodmap. You may refer to keybinds.zsh for more detail.

Supported Other Files

Private variables will be automatically sourced from $HOME/.private,$HOME/.bash_private or HOME/.zsh_private.

$HOME/.inputrc can be used for special input configurations (for example terminal editors require special terminal settings.)

Operating system specific settings can be placed in .linuxrc or .macrc respectively.

Git Completion

Git completion is automatically installed on first run to .zsh in the users home. This is all created for you and nothing needs to be done. Should the curl commands fail to pull the correct files from the git github repository you will need to source both git-completion.bash and git-completion.zsh and adjust the script appropriately or place them in a .zsh directory in $HOME.

Syntax Highlighting

If your ZSH version is greater than or equal to 4.11.3 fish-like syntax highlighting will be installed.

Generators

You can generate a project for C using cgen <project_name> <cmake_version> <standard (99, 11, etc)>.

Fun

Typing weather into the command line will output your local weather to the terminal.
