I think in the toolbox, instead of shipping your default dotfiles, you should give an option to customize the options in dotfiles. For example, it should be like checkbox for the aliases you want, select your binding (vim or emacs), histfilesize and explain what each options do. I think if this tool is targeted for new users, rather than shipping a default configuration you should keep it as an option and also in advanced customizations, make an option to customize each and every option. In that way, new users will feel welcome to learn how things work under the hood. Also, I want to emphasize that every single person under the sun has different preferences. Anyway, Great work btw. Edit 1: I almost forgot to mention it. Make your scripts idempotent. The way you are doing things in bash is very "HACKY". In the long term, this is gonna create a lot of trouble.

adding on to this, he should look at how zsh does it with zsh-newuser-install. It gives quite a nice UI and a quite a number of options you can change even without installing other plugins.

@@opposite342 I just gave an example of how elaborate the advanced customization options should be. What I tried to imply that instead of shipping dotfiles from a github repo, @ChurchTechTalks should let people create their on=wn dotfiles the way that want.

I have used your winders script, love it... although it did bork one program, and had to reinstall it, but it didn't do that on another windows machine with basically the same setup. I think it was Gnucash.

Hey, Chris! I'm (obviously) just starting to get into Linux. Past couple of weeks or so. Anyhow, if I understand correctly, the Linux Kernel holds drivers inside of itself. I'm curious if an install media (USB, etc. as long as it's writeable) can be configured to ping all hardware on a system - just as it would to install drivers in the first place - and create an inventory list by creating a folder on the install media specific to that machine and putting that inventory list in there. Then search the Kernel for appropriate drivers and moving those drivers into the folder. Then, popup a menu like your Windows tool that shows popular software so your choices can also be added to the inventory. THEN, compile a build that has a Kernel with only the necessary software that's absolutely necessary to run the operating system (Debian, for example), plus the software choices you made: Thorium as your browser, Notepad ++ for text editor, etc. I'm just curious if an Installer can be configured to do that on the fly, and then install accordingly. Thanks!

if I've understood what you want (a kernel compiled exclusively to your specific hardware configuration) and I've understood Gentoo correctly, neither of which is a given, then yes, I'm pretty sure gentoo does exactly what you're after. Worth looking into certainly, though my understanding is it's a very complex distro.

Do you use mislav/hub for git in the cli? Can recommend it for doing more advanced stuff like setting the status of an issue or creating one from the cli.

Re: GNU/Linux haha So true. Linux would not be where it is today without GNU tools. Fact. But same for all the other parts. By that logic is should be called GNU/LINUS. ;)

do i learn here how to integrate toolbox installations to wine game relations? my wine systems don't work, the dbus and gaming doesn't communicate. i didn't find a tutorial yet where to install wine packages to grant dbus accesses to wine and the hardware. the games don't even run the dedicated gpu even when the setting is enabled. what's necessary to fix gpu driver wine issues? how do i run hybrid gpu? how does steam run dbus and xdg runtime correct?

Well eh a good chunk of Linux uses GNU as the userland. We just call it Linux because it’s easier than saying. GNU/Linux I mean I don’t really care I call it Linux. However GNU is a major part of the system.

One uses vim language (vim) and neovim uses lua for config. neovim can use vim language as well, but it gives access to a lot more modern extensions.
