Cleanliness in dotfiles #17

Closed HalosGhost closed 11 years ago

HalosGhost commented 11 years ago

For my own personal OCD, I prefer to keep as many of my dotfiles as I can in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME rather than in $HOME. I've modified the PKGBUILD to check in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/ttwm/ for a custom config.h (I like this better than conf.h) and icons.h because this feels cleaner to me.

This (along with the "conf" -> "config") is purely aesthetic, as I like my ~ to be as clean as possible, but the change wouldn't be hard for you to adopt upstream at all. Not a problem if you'd rather not accept, but I figured I would propose it.

All the best,

-HG

This sounds like a good idea, and would only require some bash script changes in the PKGBUILD. I just pushed a revision to the PKGBUILD for makepkg 4.1, so this is a good a time as any to make these other changes before I repakage it for the AUR.

I've just updated the PKGBUILD on github. This will go to the AUR in the next few days.
