dotfiles

my conf files

Using dotbot its awesome.

I'm using a fork (of a fork of a fork) of instant-markdown-d which uses KaTeX for maths (and has the upstream up to date):

npm install -g git+https://github.com/bixel/instant-markdown-d.git

There are some other tweaks for macOS, I do not want to miss:

Enabling and setting key-repeat and initial key-repeat rates via

defaults write -g ApplePressAndHoldEnabled -bool false
defaults write NSGlobalDomain KeyRepeat -int 1
defaults write -g InitialKeyRepeat -int 10

The changes take effect after a logout. Warning If you want to present a slideshow with these settings enabled, you'll have a nightmate using most presenters.

Remap ESC and CAPSLOCK keys

sudo defaults read com.apple.loginwindow || sudo defaults write com.apple.loginwindow LoginHook $PWD/osx_startup_script.sh && sudo ./osx_startup_script.sh

Oddities

To properly activate autocompletion, I need to run

rm ~/.zcompdump
compinit

Weirdly, this reported "compinit: insecure directories". After a few tries, it "just worked"... If this is not the case, this github issue might help.
