Dotfiles

Management:

• Managed with stow
  • in dotfiles directory, run stow !(bookmarklets)/ to create all links
    • note the !(bookmarklets)/ glob because we don't need bookmarklets to be symlinked, they are just in this repo because they fit the theme
    • can run stow -nv !(bookmarklets)/ to see what it will do without affecting the filesystem first
  • run stow -D !(bookmarklets)/ to remove all links
