My configuration. Minimalist, but helps save a few thousand keystrokes a day. I use macOS, so I can only guarantee they'll work on a Mac, but I use some of these dotfiles on various linux servers, and they seem to be pretty flexible. The project is written primarily in Shell, distributed under the MIT License license, first published in 2014. Key topics include: alias, bash, configuration, customization, dotfiles.
