rc/            the startup files
bashincludes/  things to be sourced on startup

Highlights

rc/bashrc

This starts everything up, and (of course) is symlinked to ~/.bashrc It loads up everything that needs to be in memory (with toramdisk.sh) and runs it.

bashincludes/alwaysontop.sh

I had a pretty long train commute, and I found that at the end of it, my neck would hurt from hunching. I wrote a thing to keep the input line at the top of the screen in bash.

While it's at it, it:

• keeps the prompt at the top of the screen
• clears the screen automatically
• word wraps
• lists the contents directories upon entering them
• lists the git status in directories that have them
• deemphasizes files that match .gitignore patterns

Start it with autotop

End it with unautotop

Toggle screen clears with autoclear and unautoclear

bashincludes/believe.sh

With some probability, it will display either "Believe in yourself", a fortune, or nothing.
