This folder includes different configuration files and similar that I have been gathering. The purpose is to configurate servers in a way that I can access them, and it makes me happy (color coding, terminal characteristics, etc.).
I'll try to keep it up to date when I do something new, but don't count on it too much. If I manage, all files in this folder will be referred to in the README.
iTerm supports italics, but for that the terminal needs to accept it. For that you need to copy the file xterm-256color-italic.terminfo into your server:
scp xterm-256color-italic.terminfo user@server.dom:xterm-256color-italic.terminfo
After this, you'll have to register that terminal type:
tic -o ~/.terminfo /path/to/file/xterm-256color-italic.terminfo
Welcome to the world of italics and 256 color for vim (that's my main use case)!
I've extracted from my .bashrc file those parts that are most transferrable to servers (the ones that I constantly copy here and there) to files here that can be sourced.
Basically, add to the .bashrc of the server:
source ~/.daniel/bash_aliases
source ~/.daniel/bash_env
source ~/.daniel/bash_prompt
I also keep track of a personalized .vim configuration. It lives in a separate git repo, so I'll just explain how to get it from there.
To set up vim on a remote machine, just clone the repository (on your home directory):
git clone https://github.com/ErCollao/vim-config .vim
Then you should run vim. It will give you a warning since it won't find the color scheme. Just go with it for a moment (if you have't opened a file you won't even see the difference).
Inside vim, run the command :PlugUpdate and vim-plug will download all the plugins. Quit vim (:q) and restart it, and you should have a vim configuration the way I like it!
Warning: in some dumbed down servers you can't actually execute PlugUpdate. In those cases, keep plugins to a minimum. Sorry. Next time I play with that I'll try to see which ones do work. For now, I suggest you leave only neodark (the color scheme).
