dotfiles

Welcome to my new-new-new dotfiles repository!

My last attempt to manage them was with org-mode, a terrific Emacs lisp program. It's really cool, but I never wanted to invest time in learning it properly, so here we are. I guess I could cite Ken Thompson

I can't understand something presented to me that's very complex.

but it wouldn't be completely true. I understand and use complex stuff, but for some I just don't want to put the effort in. org-mode falls into this category.

This is me reinventing a lightweight literate-programming style (mostly in AWK) and use it to manage my dotfiles, as well as for exporting them for the Geminispace and the WWW.

To start using it:

$ ./gen			# generates Makefile.local
$ make install		# installs the dotfiles
$ make publish		# publishes for gemini and www
$ make serve-www	# serve the www site locally
$ make serve-gem	# serve the gemini site locally

There are quite a few scripts that I think can be useful to other people:

• unpar: gathers paragraphs and simple list that spans multiple lines into a single line; in other words it converts "markdown"-style paragraphs and lists to text/gemini.

• gc: converts lines indented with tabs into markdown/gemtext style fenced code blocks.

• gem2html: perl script that converts text/gemini to HTML with care.
