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, ohmyposh, zellij, ghostty
windows Windows-only windows-terminal/settings.json
lk-installers n/a helper scripts to install tooling

Linux / macOS (GNU stow)

Requires stow.

./link-dotfiles

This runs stow home_root and stow --target=$HOME/.config home_config.

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.

Installers

Script Platform Purpose
lk-installers/install-ohmyposh bash oh-my-posh (Linux/macOS)
lk-installers/install-ohmyposh.ps1 pwsh oh-my-posh (Windows, via winget)
# Windows: install oh-my-posh, then link
pwsh -File .\lk-installers\install-ohmyposh.ps1
pwsh -File .\link-dotfiles.ps1

oh-my-posh

The prompt theme lives at home_config/ohmyposh/lkraven.toml and is loaded from your shell profile, e.g. in PowerShell:

oh-my-posh init pwsh --config '~/.config/ohmyposh/lkraven.toml' | Invoke-Expression

It expects a Nerd Font (e.g. VictorMono Nerd Font Mono) to be installed and selected in your terminal for the glyphs to render correctly.
