Darwin/Setup
My setup on Darwin, it is weird, only for me, not recommended…
term% @{ramfs ; cd /tmp ; hget https://9lab.org/vid/plan9/NeinFront.mp4 > NeinFront.mp4 && treason NeinFront.mp4}
Overview
Applied after a clean install of MacOS Monterey. The objective is to use a minimal set of applications and changes to be productive.
General Setup
% mkdir $HOME/bin
% mkdir $HOME/src
% mkdir $HOME/lib
% echo 'path=($HOME/bin $path)' >> $HOME/.zshrc
System Preferences
Mission Control
Uncheck Automatically rearrange Spaces based on most recent use.
Accessibility
Turn on three finger dragging.
Xcode
Download latest version of Xcode from:
https://developer.apple.com/download/more/
…bypassing the app store.
TextEdit
To open UNTITLED file instead of the Open Dialogue:
; defaults write com.apple.TextEdit NSShowAppCentricOpenPanelInsteadOfUntitledFile -bool false
Screenshots
; mkdir -p $HOME/Pictures/Screenshots
; defaults write com.apple.screencapture location $HOME/Pictures/Screenshots
; killall SystemUIServer
Remote Desktop Client
The latest Beta of the remote desktop client is available here:
…avoiding the Mac App store.
Shell
Minimal shell configuration:
% cd $HOME
% >.zshrc ed - .zshrc <<EOT
i
path=(\$HOME/bin \$path)
.
w
EOT
