Dotfiles

This repo synchronizes various settings for bash, vim, git, tmux, ipython, and jupyter. It also includes some handy shell functions and shell scripts.

Shell configuration

The .bashrc file is utterly massive. Among other things, it provides nc<suffix> functions that summarize NetCDF files by parsing ncdump, provides tools for working over SSH connections and maintaining connections to remote jupyter sessions, and configures FZF fuzzy autocompletion and the conda environment. It also evaluates .dircolors.ansi to keep color-coding of ls results consistent between workstations.

Vim configuration

The .vimrc is even more utterly massive. Among other things, it configures a few dozen vim plugins, configures FZF fuzzy autocompletion integration features, and defines a billion key mappings as I see fit. In general, I use the prefix <Leader> for commands, <Tab> for window operations, \ for regex replacements, g for navigation actions, and z for folding actions.

You can also find filetype-specific features in the ftplugin, syntax, and after/syntax folders, including improved syntax highlighting and <Plug>Execute mappings that "run", "compile", or "open" the current file (mapped to Z by default). I have also written a number of vim plugins over the years: vim-succinct, vim-tags, vim-statusline, vim-tabline, vim-scrollwrapped, and vim-toggle.

Other configuration

You can find various shell script utilities in bin and git commands in .gitconfig, including a latexmk shell script integrated with ftplugin for convenient LaTeX document rendering and viewing. Also, .jupyter files are synced to preserve custom key binding and extension settings across jupyter notebook and jupyter lab sessions.
