* How to set up this configuration

** Automated setup

#+begin_src sh
    bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://git.meinlschmidt.org/jetpac/dotfiles/raw/branch/main/bootstrap.sh)"
#+end_src

** manual setup

  #+begin_src sh
    # for linux; ignore on other systems
    sudo yum update
    sudo yum install zsh tmux git

    source .proxies

    # enter username/password
    git clone --bare https://git.meinlschmidt.org/jetpac/dotfiles.git ~/.cfg
    alias config='/usr/bin/git --git-dir=$HOME/.cfg/ --work-tree=$HOME'
    config config --local status.showUntrackedFiles no
    config checkout

    source ~/.proxies
    sh -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ohmyzsh/ohmyzsh/master/tools/install.sh) --unattended --skip-chsh --keep-zshrc"
    git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/romkatv/powerlevel10k.git ${ZSH_CUSTOM:-$HOME/.oh-my-zsh/custom}/themes/powerlevel10k
    git clone https://github.com/tmux-plugins/tpm ~/.tmux/plugins/tpm
    curl -fLo ~/.vim/autoload/plug.vim --create-dirs https://raw.githubusercontent.com/junegunn/vim-plug/master/plug.vim

    vim +PlugInstall +qall

    zsh

    # run tmux, prefix + I installs all plugins (needs to have proxies set)
    # run vim, :PlugInstall

    # download and unpack dotfiles from my git
  #+end_src

** iterm
*** defines dynamic profile for tmux keys usage
- profile sits in `Library/Application Support/iTerm2/DynamicProfiles/dynamic_profile.json`
- this profile inherits from Default profile
- automatically appears in profiles; set it as default and you should be going
- TODO - table of defined keys

** BetterTouchTool

Presets are stored as uncompressed JSON exports in
=~/.config/bettertouchtool/=. Ansible installs BetterTouchTool and checks out
dotfiles on initial setup; it does not import or continuously synchronize BTT
settings. BTT continues to own its live configuration.

*** Restore on a new Mac

1. Install and start BetterTouchTool, activate your licence separately, and
   grant the macOS permissions requested by BTT.
2. If BTT already has configuration you want to keep, export those presets
   before importing anything from dotfiles.
3. Open the Presets interface (top-right preset button) and import
   =Default.bttpreset= from =~/.config/bettertouchtool/=. Use Cmd+Shift+G in the
   file picker to enter this hidden directory. This export includes BTT's
   exportable general settings, including window move/resize preferences.
   Allow importing these settings when prompted.
4. Import =clipboard.bttpreset=, =BTT Clipboard Manager.bttpreset= and
   =btt-mobile-example.bttpreset= from the same directory. These exports do not
   include general settings.
5. Select the imported =Default= as the master preset and enable all four
   imported presets to reproduce the source setup. Avoid keeping duplicate
   copies enabled; if a preset with the same name already exists, review the
   import/replacement prompt rather than blindly adding another copy.
6. Check the window move/resize preferences and test them on an ordinary
   window. Test a configured browser gesture (for example, a Firefox TipTap
   gesture), and check the clipboard manager and mobile menus if you use them.
   Clipboard history is not restored.

The snapshot was exported from BTT 5.750 on 2026-09-25. The source master is
=Default= (activation state 2); =clipboard=, =BTT Clipboard Manager= and
=btt-mobile-example= have activation state 1. The =clipboard= preset currently
contains app scopes but no triggers; it is retained to preserve the setup.

*** Update the exports

After changing BTT settings, export the affected presets again from BTT's
Presets interface to the same filenames. Choose uncompressed JSON; include
general settings only in =Default.bttpreset=. Re-export =Default= when changing
general preferences, even if no shortcuts changed. Preserve the names above
and update this section if the master or enabled presets change.

Before adding exports to Git, review the diff for passwords, API keys, private
paths, typed-text actions and scripts. Remove =BTTFloatingMenuRenderedPreview=
fields from JSON exports: these are cached menu snapshots, not configuration.
Validate the resulting JSON, for example:

#+begin_src sh
  python3 -m json.tool ~/.config/bettertouchtool/Default.bttpreset >/dev/null
  config diff -- .config/bettertouchtool README.org
#+end_src

New files must be added explicitly with the existing =config= Git alias.
Exports may receive new preset UUIDs, so inspect import prompts on subsequent
restores and ensure only one intended copy of each preset is enabled.
Do not add BTT's Application Support directory, preferences plist, clipboard
database, licences, automatic backups or user-variable stores to Git.

*** Portability notes

- App-specific bindings target iTerm2, Finder, Firefox and Microsoft Edge;
  install the relevant apps before testing those bindings. The mobile example
  also includes Safari actions. Hardware-specific gestures and window geometry
  may need adjustment for a different keyboard, pointing device or display.
- No user-specific absolute paths were found in these exports. The mobile
  example contains JavaScript menu widgets and a =say hello= shell action;
  import only trusted presets and review scripts before enabling them.
- Two custom mobile-menu images are already absent from the source Mac:
  =AE909FCE-DACE-4774-823D-36F7C2864EB5-BTTMenuItemImage.png= and
  =ED4B7AB4-D7E6-474C-B4A4-7BDCA93F25DB-BTTMenuItemImage.png=.
  Their =BTT_PRESET_PATH= references remain in the export, but those icons
  cannot be restored from this snapshot. Re-select images in BTT if needed.
- Cached rendered menu previews are intentionally omitted. The clipboard
  presets contain configuration only, not copied text or clipboard history.

See [[https://docs.folivora.ai/docs/configuration/presets][BTT's preset documentation]] for export/import behaviour.

** fonts
For iTerm on mac, the preferred fonts are installed automatically.
You can also download fonts like this:
#+begin_src bash
  wget https://github.com/romkatv/powerlevel10k-media/raw/master/MesloLGS%20NF%20Regular.ttf
  wget https://github.com/romkatv/powerlevel10k-media/raw/master/MesloLGS%20NF%20Bold.ttf
  wget https://github.com/romkatv/powerlevel10k-media/raw/master/MesloLGS%20NF%20Italic.ttf
  wget https://github.com/romkatv/powerlevel10k-media/raw/master/MesloLGS%20NF%20Bold%20Italic.ttf
#+end_src

** Emacs
#+begin_src bash
  git clone https://github.com/syl20bnr/spacemacs ~/.emacs.d
#+end_src
Run Emacs and wait ~10 mins to download all packages

** tmux in User's home directory
If you want to build tmux independend of other parts of the system, cut&paste from the code snippet below should do the trick.
