Bash Configuration Gist


Bash Configuration


I updated my bash configuration gist today. As it has been a while since I have done as much and there have been some significant changes in my configuration model since the last update.


This gist is for the intermediate user and not so much a beginners guide. I do not go into a lot of explanations about CLI basics. It is likely to not make any sense at all to someone that is not versed in the basic concepts of the CLI using bash as a shell.

When using zsh just use .csh etc in your ~/.config/profiled, you can use a directory named ~/.config/zshrc.d instead of ~/.config/bashrc.d, it will not hurt to setup the bash equivalent in and case in case you end up in a bash login at some point.

And yes, the gist tells you that it is a Bash Configuration. Though it would be easy to translate to Zsh.

Of course their is not a need to organize you configuration in this way, it just simplifies things over the long run. It keeps everything in its own little compartment. It makes trouble shooting easier. This is especially true when you are administrating a multi-user system as I do.

I do not know when you looked at the gist but I made a few corrections just moment ago. That I screwed up when I was tired earlier today.

What a serpentine rabbit hole I just now emerged from!
The entry point was at the conclusion of a filler show on OETA today (PBS affiliate) about Native American arts in OK, when this one guy was talking about how he was able to bring native perspective into his works which included the animated Star Trek show.

The example shown was an episode featuring a Native deity-based entity (based on the Mayan feathered serpent) called Kukulkan, which evoked my memory of a kiddie program which also featured a serpent puppet playing opposite a puppet named Kukla. I just HAD to go look that up. That was Oliver J. Dragon, the snaggletoothed puppet called Ollie for short, backstory of which goes back to being born in Vermont.

Both were accompanied by a human lady, Fran, and was produced by somebody we should all know but don't: #BurrTillstrom. He's the guy that launched #JimHenson down his own puppeteering rabbit hole.

That's accurate but only in some cases, not all. You could make the case that the FUBARs of computer were committed on a human-made machine plus a human engaging the GIGO principle--but fact remains that in order for a human error to go FUBAR, no computer has done any less.

I don't disagree, but I do the computers have magnified the good of humans, too!
