  • shortbashpwd

    Shorter working directory in prompt like in fish shell

  • I recently separated it from my .bashrc so anyone can install it: https://github.com/NikitaIvanovV/shortbashpwd

  • dotfiles

    :boom: My system installation profile (by cookiengineer)

  • Added lots of other helper methods, mostly for the shitty kind of CLI tools like yt-dlp, wget, tar, etc. My PS1 is a little more complex because I'm using emojis in the Terminal to represent states of repositories and to shorten the base paths. My complete bashrc is here if you're curious.

  • pkgbuilds

  • Getting environment variables from systemd generators, so they only needed to be set for the systemd user session (environment.d, custom generators), and they cover this way also systemd user services, systemd-run and flatpak-spawn. Also, bash-complete-alias is pretty neat, though I'm making limited use of it these days, and prefer wrappers, and symlinks.

  • dotfiles

    Personal .dotfile repository (by Mikle-Bond)

  • Here are graphical ones: show how much time it took for a process to run, and xclip aliases. Highly recommend both.

  • arch

  • Instead of commanding to alias multiple times, you can have all aliases under same tree like this.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
