My UN*X environment setup, including automation scripts and configuration files for a variety of tools.

The repository is structured around the custom environments I run, including:

• a FreeBSD headless laptop (tty environment)
• a Fedora desktop with Sway (wayland environment)
• a Debian desktop with Dwm (xorg environment).

Note that the TTY tools are employed across all environments.

• GNU Make
• GNU Stow

Before using my dotfiles, change the personal environment values in ./tty/.bash_profile accordingly.

To automate the process of creating symbolic links from the repository files to their respective locations, use one of the following commands in the dotfiles’ root directory .:

ℹ️ The TTY environment is automatically installed when choosing any of the graphical environment options.

make tty

make wayland

make xorg

To create paper-based backups of important files, run papyrus. This script handles compression, chunking, and QR code generation while preserving file metadata and integrity through SHA-256 for physical printing and storage. It provides a long-term cold backup for critical/small files.

To switch between light and dark modes globally, just run switcher. This custom script sends SIGHUP signals to the respective programs, making it easy to adapt to changes in ambient light without having to manually adjust each program’s settings.

To automate system updates, run omni. This script checks for the availability of various package managers and executes the corresponding update commands. It ensures that every manager present in the enviroment update its packages.

To display a MOTD with a log of last logins and a custom fortune, run hermes. This script is designed to be executed automatically in every interactive login shell through hermes.service and .bash_profile. For more details, check the script comments.

To streamline the music experience, just run euterpe. This script leverages tmux to attach to a session with windows related to managing system sound and media.
