dotfiles

Emacs, StumpWM, bashrc, misc scripts, mail, and basically the functionality of a DE

This is pretty much every configuration file for me.

Here are the programs that use the config files here: (Note: if a config file loads more config files, I won’t list them all)

Program	Config file(s)	For
bash	.bashrc, .bash_profile	shell
compton	compton.conf	X compositor (transparency)
dunst	dunstrc	desktop notification daemon
git	.gitconfig	version control
GNU Emacs	init.el	text editor
GNU Screen	.screenrc	terminal multiplexer
mutt	.muttrc	email client
ncmpcpp	config	MPD client
SBCL	.sbclrc	Common Lisp interpreter
StumpWM	.stumpwmrc	X Window Manager
XTerm, URxvt	Xresources	terminal emulator
X	.xinitrc, Xresources, Xmodmap	X Window System

Install

Basically use the Makefile (i.e. make)

After the Makefile installs pretty much everything, you have to start up Emacs and wait a while for it to download all my packages. (See “emacs” section)

Note: If you are not Benjamin James, you might want to change some things in .gitconfig.

emacs

If you just want an Emacs config, instead of typing make, type make emacs to just install the Emacs files. Note that if you already had a .emacs in your home directory, it will load that first instead of loading this config.

Once you start up Emacs, wait a while for it to download all my packages.

Then, in Emacs, type M-x irony-install-server and wait for it to compile to complete the installation. Note that irony-mode requires llvm and cmake to be installed on the system.

Keyboard

I have remapped my keyboard in X with xmodmap to be similar with the Space-cadet keyboard with which Emacs was originally designed. So, it transforms the bottom row of the keyboard from

Fn	Control	Super	Alt	Spacebar	Alt	Print	Control

to

Fn	Super	Alt	Control	Spacebar	Control	Alt	Super

which has been easier to type on for me.

The implementation is in Xmodmap.

To disable this, comment out this line in .xinitrc

[[ -f $usermodmap ]] && xrdb -merge $userresources

before starting X.

If you want to unset this live (in an X session), type

setxkbmap -layout us

into a terminal.

Crontab

My crontab is

DISPLAY=:0.0
XAUTHORITY=/home/ben/.Xauthority
*/3 * * * * /usr/bin/fetchmail
* * * * * /home/ben/bin/fortune-teller.sh
* * * * * /home/ben/bin/wallpaper.sh

Mail

Mail is done through a fetchmail/procmail/msmtp process so reading is all done through mail. Fetchmail is called by cron every couple of minutes.

fetchmail

Here’s a sample .fetchmailrc skeleton:

set logfile @HOME@/.local/share/fetchmail.log
set no bouncemail

poll @EMAIL_SERVER@ with proto POP3 port 995 dns auth password
user "@EMAIL@" pass "@PASSWORD@" is @USERNAME@
ssl
sslproto TLS1
mda "/usr/bin/procmail -f %F -d %T"

msmtp

And a sample .msmtprc skeleton:

# Set default values for the following accounts
defaults
tls on
tls_trust_file /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt
logfile .local/share/msmtp.log

account primary
host @EMAIL_SERVER@
from @EMAIL@
tls_starttls on
port 587
auth on
user @EMAIL@
password "@PASSWORD@"
account default : primary
