     49 ### DOTFILES
     50 
     51 In the world of Linux everything is a file and you can create a incredibly personalised environment by modifying your dotfiles.
     52 
     53 This is known as 'ricing' and can become very, [very obsessive](https://pyratebeard.net/scrots.html)...
     54 
     55 ### MANAGING
     56 
     57 I manage my dotfiles using [stow](http://www.gnu.org/software/stow/).  The stow package should be available in your preferred package manager.
     58 
     59 ### USING
     60 Clone the repo into your home directory:
     61 
     62 `git clone http://gitlab.com/pyratebeard/dotfiles.git ~/dotfiles`
     63 
     64 Enter the dotfiles directory
     65 
     66 `cd dotfiles`
     67 
     68 Install the zsh settings
     69 
     70 `stow zsh`
     71 
     72 Install vim configuration
     73 
     74 `stow vim`
     75 
     76 Uninstall vim configuration
     77 
     78 `stow -D vim`
     79 
     80 Start from a different target directory
     81 
     82 `sudo stow -t / cron`
     83 
     84 ### TERMINAL
     85 Ever since I started using Linux I have loved working in the terminal. I find it faster and easier than most graphical interfaces.
     86 
     87 I have tried a number of terminal emulators over the years but I'm currently using [urxvt](). I have recently started using [zsh](http://zsh.sourceforge.net/) over [bash](https://www.gnu.org/software/bash/) for my shell.
     88 
     89 I've also come to love [tmux](https://tmux.github.io/) for running multiple sessions in one window.
