Aliases are important, there were a couple of changes required here. First some systems use `doas` instead of `sudo` so I put in a check for `doas` and if it exists I alias it to `sudo`. That way all my aliases that are configured to use `sudo` don't break. My shutdown function also had to be modified to work on any platform, so I switched to directly calling `halt`.

+More alias issues, this time with `ls`. I have grown to like colour output with `ls` but the OpenBSD package doesn't provide the `--color` option. I attempted to find a workaround but instead succumbed to installing the coreutils package which includes `gls`, and thus providing `--color`. I then check with package is installed to set my alias.
+
+The same check is configured in my `chpwd_auto_cd` function as it didn't seem to pick up the alias. If you're interested, [this function](https://git.pyratebeard.net/dotfiles/file/zsh/.zsh/functions/chpwd_auto_cd.html){target="_blank" rel="noreferrer"} auto runs `ls` when I `cd` into a directory.
+
+The coreutils package also gives me `gdircolors`, a substitute for `dircolors`, which is used in my `zsh` autocompletion settings.

things still to change
* tmux status - battery
