Symlink management rework #24

Closed JasonYao closed 7 years ago

JasonYao commented 7 years ago

Description

Symlink management may be better by using a GNU tool, of which GNU Stow appears to fit the bill. Replacing Holman's linking function with this will thus future proof the script, and lower dependencies on outside code.

Features wanted

Using Stow

Current solution

JasonYao commented 7 years ago

Instead of using Stow, I'll proceed via normal bash to build out an automatic deletion script that will delete any symlinks in $HOME which point back to the dotfiles.

Automatic deletion function and uninstall script is added as of ad474a1cfaabdf97eb4b81c671fc56856dea02d1. Dynamic linking and unlinking is now complete
