This is my collection of dotfiles for my daily GNU/Linux environment, tweaked
to my liking. If you wish to get the same setup as mine, follow the
instructions below.
As you can see, I personally use [[https://fishshell.com/][fish]] as my shell of choice, and [[https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/][Emacs]] using
[[http://spacemacs.org][Spacemacs]] (still with Emacs keybinding) as my main text editor.
I also use [[https://github.com/resloved/i3][Resloved]]’s [[https://github.com/resloved/i3][fork]] of [[https://github.com/Airblader/i3][i3-gaps]] with two [[https://github.com/jaagr/polybar][polybar]] bars and [[https://github.com/tryone144][Tryone144]]’s
[[https://github.com/tryone144/compton][fork]] of [[https://github.com/chjj/compton][Compton]]. The colors scheme for [[https://github.com/davatorium/rofi][rofi]], Emacs and polybar are chosen from
the wallpapers using [[https://github.com/dylanaraps/pywal][pywal]].

- Emacs configuration perfectly tailored for my own use
- Beautiful and comfy i3 and polybar configuration
- And enough information below to get basically the same distro install as I
have on my main computer and my travel laptop.
Most of the org files you will find in this repos are the actual source code
of much of my config files. For instance, the [[#h-c13d132f-9e69-4bb0-838b-29c7c5611f11][Execute bootstrap]] subpart of
this file exports almost all of its code snippets to [[file:.yadm/bootstrap][.yadm/bootstrap]] thanks to
=M-x org-babel-tangle= from within Emacs. Below I will also present and
comment some of my short config files which do not deserve to have a full org
file dedicated to them.
** Custom scripts in =PATH=
:PROPERTIES:
:CUSTOM_ID: h-d582e107-fa66-4f79-869e-2b49116ed1ec
:END:
I have written some scripts that help me daily accomplish some simple tasks,
like mounting and unmounting a drive or Android device, an emoji picker, a
utility to set up my Wacom tablet, and so on. You can find them stored in
[[file:.local/bin][.local/bin]] along with their detailed explanation in the [[file:.local/bin/README.org][README]] placed in the
same folder —which is actually their source code once the org-mode file gets
tangled.
** Email signature

** Fish configuration with useful abbreviations
:PROPERTIES:
:CUSTOM_ID: h-f35ed9a3-c9fc-458c-8a62-693f679f6992
:END:
You can also find in [[file:.config/fish][.config/fish]] my Fish shell configuration, which contains
my usual abbreviations. Most of its configuration is made with fisher though,
and this is shown below in [[#install-fisher][Install =fisher=]].j
** Nano
:PROPERTIES:
:CUSTOM_ID: h-1724166b-55b7-4a64-9ff1-47c2a9e76f46
:HEADER-ARGS: :tangle ~/.nanorc
:END:
Although it is a very simple piece of software, nano does offer some
customization. Here is mine.
*** Configuration
:PROPERTIES:
:CUSTOM_ID: h-76aa0ff6-9e6a-4a35-974f-9132b08c8eb4
:END:
When soft line wrapping is enabled, make it wrap lines at blank characters
(tabs and spaces) instead of always at the edge of the screen.
#+BEGIN_SRC conf
set atblanks
#+END_SRC
Automatically indent a newly created line to the same number of tabs and/or
spaces as the previous line (or as the next line if the previous line is the
beginning of a paragraph).
#+BEGIN_SRC conf
set autoindent
#+END_SRC
When saving a file, create a backup file by adding a tilde (=~=) to the
file's name. And make and keep not just one backup file, but make and keep a
uniquely numbered one every time a file is saved — when backups are enabled
with =set backup= or =--backup= or =-B=. The uniquely numbered files are
stored in the directory =~/.cache/nano/backups/=.
#+BEGIN_SRC conf
set backup
set backupdir /home/phundrak/.cache/nano/backups/
#+END_SRC
Use bold instead of reverse video for the title bar, status bar, key combos,
function tags, line numbers, and selected text. This can be overridden by
setting the options =titlecolor=, =statuscolor=, =keycolor=,
=functioncolor=, =numbercolor=, and =selectedcolor=.
#+BEGIN_SRC conf
set boldtext
#+END_SRC
Do case-unsensitive searches by default.
#+BEGIN_SRC conf
unset casesensitive
#+END_SRC
Constantly display the cursor position in the status bar. This overrides the
option =quickblank=.
#+BEGIN_SRC conf
set constantshow
#+END_SRC
Display line numbers to the left of the text area.
#+BEGIN_SRC conf
set linenumbers
#+END_SRC
Do regular-expression searches by default. Regular expressions in =nano= are
of the extended type (ERE).
#+BEGIN_SRC conf
set regexp
#+END_SRC
Make the Home key smarter. When Home is pressed anywhere but at the very
beginning of non-whitespace characters on a line, the cursor will jump to
that beginning (either forwards or backwards). If the cursor is already at
that position, it will jump to the true beginning of the line.
#+BEGIN_SRC conf
set smarthome
#+END_SRC
Enable soft line wrapping for easier viewing of very long lines.
#+BEGIN_SRC conf
set softwrap
#+END_SRC
Use a tab size of a certain amount of columns. The value of number must be
greater than 0. The default value is 8.
#+BEGIN_SRC conf
set tabsize 2
#+END_SRC
Convert typed tabs to spaces. Sue me.
#+BEGIN_SRC conf
set tabstospaces
#+END_SRC
Remove trailing whitespace from wrapped lines when automatic hard-wrapping
occurs or when text is justified.
#+BEGIN_SRC conf
set trimblanks
#+END_SRC
Save a file by default in Unix format. This overrides nano's default
behavior of saving a file in the format that it had. (This option has no
effect when you also use =set noconvert=.)
#+BEGIN_SRC conf
set unix
#+END_SRC
*** Included configuration file
:PROPERTIES:
:CUSTOM_ID: h-491cba80-5fa9-4b75-a9cb-2865ec39440a
:END:
Nano gives the opportunity to include some files located elsewhere. This is
why I added [[https://github.com/scopatz/nanorc][this repo]] as a submodule of my dotfiles so I can access a lot of
them at the same time. Since the submodule is cloned in =~/.config/nanorc=,
we can add only one line to include all of the =.nanorc= files.
#+BEGIN_SRC conf
include ~/.config/nanorc/*.nanorc
#+END_SRC
** Global gitignore
:PROPERTIES:
:CUSTOM_ID: h-4f92eb29-7cfa-48ec-b39d-39037ace3682
:HEADER-ARGS: :tangle ~/.gitignore_global
:END:
Sometimes, there are some lines that always reappear in gitignores. So,
instead of always adding them, let git now that some elements are to be
ignored by default, hence the [[file:.gitignore_global][~/.gitignore_global]] file. First, we don’t want
nano’s backup files.
#+BEGIN_SRC text
~*
#+END_SRC
And output binaries generated by =gcc= and the likes aren’t welcome either.
#+BEGIN_SRC text
,*.out
#+END_SRC
** Rustfmt
:PROPERTIES:
:CUSTOM_ID: h-0ae9005c-76a6-49f6-947c-0c8464616e10
:HEADER-ARGS: :tangle ~/.rustfmt.toml
:END:
In my [[file:.rustfmt.toml][.rustfmt.toml]], you can find some custom rules on how my Rust code
should be formatted.
First, we are using the 2018 edition of Rust.
#+BEGIN_SRC toml
edition = "2018"
#+END_SRC
The maximum length of enum variant having discriminant, that gets vertically
aligned with others. Variants without discriminants would be ignored for the
purpose of alignment.
Note that this is not how much whitespace is inserted, but instead the
longest variant name that doesn't get ignored when aligning.
#+BEGIN_SRC toml
enum_discrim_align_threshold = 20
#+END_SRC
Put single-expression functions on a single line.
#+BEGIN_SRC toml
fn_single_line = true
#+END_SRC
Format code snippet included in doc comments.
#+BEGIN_SRC toml
format_code_in_doc_comments = true
#+END_SRC
Format string literals where necessary.
#+BEGIN_SRC toml
format_strings = true
#+END_SRC
Use tab characters for indentation, spaces for alignment.
#+BEGIN_SRC toml
hard_tabs = true
#+END_SRC
Maximum width of each line
#+BEGIN_SRC toml
max_width = 80
#+END_SRC
Merge multiple imports into a single nested import.
#+BEGIN_SRC toml
merge_imports = true
#+END_SRC
My newline style will always be Unix.
#+BEGIN_SRC toml
newline_style = Unix
#+END_SRC
Convert =/* */= comments to =//= comments where possible.
#+BEGIN_SRC toml
normalize_comments = true
#+END_SRC
Convert =#![doc]= and =#[doc]= attributes to =//!= and =///= doc comments.
#+BEGIN_SRC toml
normalize_doc_attributes = true
#+END_SRC
Reorder impl items. =type= and =const= are put first, then macros and
methods.
#+BEGIN_SRC toml
reorder_impl_items = true
#+END_SRC
Report =FIXME= items in comments.
#+BEGIN_SRC toml
report_fixme = "Always"
#+END_SRC
Report =TODO= items in comments.
#+BEGIN_SRC toml
todo = "Always"
#+END_SRC
The maximum diff of width between struct fields to be aligned with each
other.
#+BEGIN_SRC toml
struct_field_align_threshold = 20
#+END_SRC
Number of spaces per tab.
#+BEGIN_SRC toml
tab_spaces = 2
#+END_SRC
Break comments to fit on the line.
#+BEGIN_SRC toml
wrap_comments = true
#+END_SRC
** Tmux configuration
:PROPERTIES:
:CUSTOM_ID: h-4f48b912-b67b-4549-a671-802e76221f46
:END:
You can find my tmux configuration in [[file:tmux.org][tmux.org]]. It depends on the submodule
[[https://github.com/gpakosz/.tmux.git][.tmux]] by [[https://pempek.net/][Gregory Pakosz]].
** Xresources
:PROPERTIES:
:CUSTOM_ID: h-e6f48975-3b86-4a75-a7e5-5cc9edbd9869
:HEADER-ARGS: :tangle ~/.Xresources :exports code
:END:
My Xresources file is very short. Indeed, it only contains two lines which
are dedicated to my =st= terminal to set its font and shell. The font is set
as follows.
#+BEGIN_SRC conf
st.font: Source Code Pro for Powerline:style=book
#+END_SRC
And I will set my shell like this:
#+BEGIN_SRC conf
st.shell: /usr/bin/fish
#+END_SRC
I used to have lines dedicated to UXTerm and URxvt, but I cast them out of my
system.
* Dependencies
:PROPERTIES:
:CUSTOM_ID: h-5849dbcf-a650-4323-9a90-bec549a7b982
:END:
Of course, some dependencies are needed for my dotfiles to work well. Here is

And some other stuff scattered around in my dotfiles.
BTW, I use Arch.
* Installation
:PROPERTIES:
:CUSTOM_ID: h-bfb2e09b-d5d7-4d6f-8b29-763c49b3fd09
:END:
Here will be presented what I do to get my system up and running on a fresh
Arch Linux install. These installation instructions were written in order to
get an Arch Linux distribution up and running with the same configuration as
my main computer’s and my travelling laptop’s configuration.
** Install Arch Linux
:PROPERTIES:
:CUSTOM_ID: h-cfe21de6-15fa-477a-a5ff-6cd81dfead19
:END:
I usually install Arch from the [[https://www.archlinux.org/download/][vanilla ISO]], however I began using [[https://github.com/MatMoul/archfi][archfi]] to
install easily the distro (I’ve done it so many times, I know how it works
now). Usually, my distros will be installed on at least two partitions, one
dedicated to =/home=, the other to the root partition =/=.
If the computer supports EFI bootloaders, the EFI partition will be mounted
on =/boot=. I generally use rEFInd as my boot manager, but if you are more
comfortable with another one, just install what you want. Be aware that if
you format your =/boot= partition, you will delete all boot managers that
already exist; so, if you are dual-booting, *DO NOT FORMAT IT*. Yes, I made
the mistake of wiping the Windows boot manager.
The swap partition is always at least 4GB large, and I should have a total of
12GB of combined RAM and swap. This means on my main computer I have 16GB of
RAM and 4GB of swap, but on my thinkpad I have 4GB of RAM and 8GB of swap.
*** Get the latest live system with fast mirrors
:PROPERTIES:
:CUSTOM_ID: h-da7951ee-e39a-4a59-a05d-7b7fffdc7825
:END:
When you boot into the live ISO, execute the following command:
#+BEGIN_SRC sh :exports code
pacman -Sy reflector
reflector --country France --country Germany --latest 200 \
--protocol http --protocol https --sort rate \
--save /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
#+END_SRC
This will update the packages from your live ISO, and you will get the best
mirrors for your installation. Of course, change the countries accordingly
to your location.
*** Install the system
:PROPERTIES:
:CUSTOM_ID: h-9f9e1fe5-4726-486b-9875-5fcfd91d0bb0
:END:
Then you can use a custom script to ease your installation of Arch if you do
not wish to do it manually. Personally, I’ve done it several times already,
I know how the distro works, I just want to be able to install my distro
quickly now.
#+BEGIN_SRC sh :exports code
wget archfi.sf.net/archfi
# Or from matmoul.github.io/archfi if SourceForge is down
sh archfi
#+END_SRC
Then, follow the instructions and install Arch Linux. Take the opportunity
to install as many packages as you need, mainly =yay= which I use as my
package manager (it is just a wrapper for =pacman=) and AUR helper, and
=pacman-contrib= which will help us installing some packages later.
Once your system is installed, reboot and remove your installation media
from your computer.
** Install basic packages
:PROPERTIES:
:CUSTOM_ID: h-d2485595-3014-4151-a76c-63bc353359a8
:END:
We will need some basic packages in order to run the bootstrap file. So,
let’s install =fish= (our shell running the script) and =git=.
#+BEGIN_SRC sh :exports code
sudo pacman -Sy fish git yadm
#+END_SRC
** Execute bootstrap
:PROPERTIES:
:CUSTOM_ID: h-c13d132f-9e69-4bb0-838b-29c7c5611f11
:HEADER-ARGS: :tangle ~/.yadm/bootstrap :exports code
:END:
=yadm= comes with a very handy feature: its bootstrap script. We can
execute it by running the following command:
#+BEGIN_SRC fish :tangle no
yadm bootstrap
#+END_SRC
Notice these two header files, we can see this is a fish script, hence why we
need fish (which is my daily shell anyway).
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
#!/usr/bin/fish
# -*- mode: fish -*-
#+END_SRC
Let’s take a look at what it does.
*** Get a correct keyboard layout
:PROPERTIES:
:CUSTOM_ID: h-89fb8f3a-6ec4-4701-a5d9-3e593c47ece9
:END:
I use mainly the [[https://bepo.fr/wiki/Accueil][bépo]] layout, a French keyboard layout inspired by Dvorak
layouts, however I sometimes need to switch back to the standard French
AZERTY or the American QWERTY layout, so I make it so the Menu key switches
for me my layout between these three. This makes it so my xorg configuration
of my keyboard looks like this:
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
set keyboardconf \
'Section "InputClass"
Identifier "system-keyboard"
MatchIsKeyboard "on"
Option "XkbLayout" "fr,fr,us"
Option "XkbModel" "pc104"
Option "XkbVariant" "bepo,,"
Option "XkbOptions" "grp:menu_toggle"
EndSection'
#+END_SRC
So, let’s set it as our keyboard configuration.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
printf "\n# Set keyboard layout #########################################################\n\n"
echo $keyboardconf | sudo tee /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/00-keyboard.conf
#+END_SRC
*** Set our locale
:PROPERTIES:
:CUSTOM_ID: h-48678405-93ae-41b6-b44b-285ab0da4e92
:END:
I use two main locales, the French and US UTF-8 locales, and I like to keep
the Japanese locale activated just in case.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
set mylocales "en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8" "fr_FR.UTF-8 UTF-8" "ja_JP.UTF-8 UTF-8"
#+END_SRC
Let’s enable these.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
printf "\n# Set our locale ##############################################################\n\n"
for item in $mylocales
if test (grep -e "#$item" /etc/locale.gen)
sudo sed -i "/$item/s/^#//g" /etc/locale.gen
end
end
#+END_SRC
This is my configuration I usually use when it comes to my locale.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
set localeconf "LANG=en_US.UTF-8
LC_COLLATE=C
LC_NAME=fr_FR.UTF-8
LC_NUMERIC=fr_FR.UTF-8
LC_IDENTIFICATION=fr_FR.UTF-8
LC_TELEPHONE=fr_FR.UTF-8
LC_MONETARY=fr_FR.UTF-8
LC_PAPER=fr_FR.UTF-8
LC_ADDRESS=fr_FR.UTF-8
LC_TIME=fr_FR.UTF-8
LC_MEASUREMENT=fr_FR.UTF-8"
#+END_SRC
Let’s set it as our system’s locale.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
echo $localeconf | sudo tee /etc/locale.conf
#+END_SRC
Now we can generate our locale!
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
printf "\n# Generate locale #############################################################\n\n"
sudo locale-gen
#+END_SRC
*** Create some folders
:PROPERTIES:

Now, the first thing we want to do with Emacs is install its Spacemacs
distribution. We’ll clone its =develop= branch into =~/.emacs.d=. We need to
do this prior to our dotfiles’ cloning because of some submodules that are
cloned within our =~/.emacs.d= directory, and git won’t let us clone
Spacemacs in an already existing and non-empty directory. To make sure it
isn’t one, let’s delete any potentially existing =~/.emacs.d= directory:

Now we can clone Spacemacs:
