erdtree (erd) replaces GNU tree as the tree-style directory lister. It uses a parallel walker (the `ignore` crate, one thread per core) where GNU tree is strictly serial. Benchmarked over 658k entries under ~/development, best-of-3, warm cache, plain output, hidden included, gitignore off: erd (16 threads) 2.35s GNU tree 2.1.0 4.22s (1.8x slower) erd (1 thread) 4.97s (so ~2.1x thread scaling) eza --tree 15.87s (6.8x slower) Three changes: - home_config/erdtree/.erdtree.toml — erd ships as a disk-usage tool, so its stock defaults are root-at-bottom, size-sorted, with a du column. The top-level table overrides that to behave like GNU tree; `erd -c du` keeps the original behaviour and `erd -c all` disables the gitignore/hidden filtering. Stowed to ~/.config/erdtree. - home_root/.zshrc — `alias tree='erd'`, plus ~/.zfunc prepended to fpath for the generated completion. The fpath line goes before the primary compinit at the top of the file rather than adding a third compinit call after it. - lk-installers/install-apps — erd is now a runtime assumption of the dotfiles (the alias depends on it), so a fresh box must get it: brew on macOS, cargo on Linux (not packaged in Debian apt). The zsh completion is generated per installed version rather than tracked, matching how the other generated completions in this repo are handled. Caveat worth knowing: erd respects .gitignore by default, which GNU tree does not. `-i` disables it, `-.` shows hidden files.
dotfiles
Personal dotfiles. Configs are organized by where they get linked:
| Folder | Links into | Examples |
|---|---|---|
home_root |
~ |
.zshrc, .wezterm.lua, .nanorc |
home_config |
~/.config |
nvim, zellij, ghostty, aerospace |
windows |
Windows-only | windows-terminal/settings.json |
lk-installers |
n/a | helper scripts to install tooling |
Linux / macOS (GNU stow)
One-shot, host-aware:
./link-dotfiles # link only (installs stow if missing)
./link-dotfiles --apps # fresh box: install all CLI tools, then link
It detects the host (macOS vs Linux), installs stow
if missing (Homebrew on macOS; apt/dnf/pacman on Linux), then runs
stow home_root and stow --target=$HOME/.config home_config. Re-running is
safe — stow is idempotent.
Installing the tools
The configs assume a handful of CLI tools (bat, fd, fzf, zoxide,
zellij, nvim, btop, htop, tldr, fastfetch, plus the fzf-git.sh
helper). One host-aware installer covers them:
./lk-installers/install-apps # macOS -> Homebrew; Linux -> apt + upstream
On macOS it bootstraps Homebrew if absent. It's idempotent — re-running only
fills gaps. ./link-dotfiles --apps just runs this first, then links.
The zsh prompt and plugins (zinit, Powerlevel10k, autosuggestions,
syntax-highlighting, completions, vi-mode, fzf-tab) self-install from
.zshrc on first shell start, so they're not part of install-apps.
Windows (PowerShell)
stow doesn't run natively on Windows, so use the PowerShell equivalent. It
mirrors stow by creating junctions for directories and symlinks/hardlinks
for files — none of which require administrator rights:
pwsh -File .\link-dotfiles.ps1
- Re-running is safe: already-correct links are skipped.
- Any real file/dir that would be overwritten is moved aside to
<name>.bak. - Preview without changing anything:
pwsh -File .\link-dotfiles.ps1 -DryRun
The repo stays the source of truth — edit files under home_root /
home_config and the linked locations update live.
Windows Terminal
windows/windows-terminal/settings.json is linked into the Terminal package
folder (...\Microsoft.WindowsTerminal_*\LocalState\settings.json) by
link-dotfiles.ps1. Because it's linked, changes you make in the Terminal UI
write straight back into this repo. The settings include the Australis
color scheme and the VictorMono Nerd Font Mono profile font; install the
font (see below) so glyphs render.
Prompt
zsh uses Powerlevel10k — loaded
through zinit straight from .zshrc, with the instant-prompt preamble near the
top for fast startup. The theme config lives at home_root/.p10k.zsh (stowed to
~/.p10k.zsh); there's no separate installer — zinit fetches it on first shell
start.
PowerShell uses starship (configured separately).
Both expect a Nerd Font v3 (e.g. VictorMono Nerd Font Mono) installed and selected in your terminal for glyphs to render.
