So you got a new computer or lost your old settings. Here's how I configure my machines for my development workflow.
yadm bootstrap
yadm submodule update --init
- System setup
- Install Flycut for clipboard management
- Rebind caps lock to escape
- Accessibility > enable "scroll gesture with modifier keys to zoom"
- Terminal setup
- Install fzf and enable fuzzy completions
These iTerm2 settings come with nice colors and hotkeys.
Hotkeys for more natural text manipulation include:
⌘Z
- Undo⌘←Delete
- Delete everything before cursor⌥←Delete
- Delete first word before cursor⌥←
,⌥→
- Jump cursor to previous/next word⌘←
,⌘→
- Jump cursor to start/end of line
To install:
- Go to iTerm > Preference.
- Check "Load Preferences from a custom folder or URL"
- Paste this URL: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jonmellman/dotfiles/main/com.googlecode.iterm2.plist
You may need to restart iTerm.
