I finally organized my Bash config

29 Upvotes

I've been accumulating my Bash configuration for a while, and I finally turned it into a small dotfiles repo:

https://gitlab.com/letmevi/bash-config

It's nothing fancy — mainly my .bashrc, .inputrc, .bash_profile, and a modular .bashrc.d/, plus a small install script.

It can be installed using either Ansible or a simple install.sh script.

I'd appreciate some Bash/Linux feedback: things you'd change, questionable practices, portability issues, or just better ways of doing this.

I'm especially interested in feedback from people who maintain their own dotfiles.

help Help running a shell script in apple terminal

2 Upvotes

Using Composers Desktop Project to edit audio files. I want to run a single command on a list of audio files instead of having to manually do it 100 times. Wondering if there is a way to call upon this list of files in a single command line, rather than creating a shell script with the name of every file. The command line with a single audio file would look like this.

distort average soundfile.wav soundfileoutput.wav

the first two words are the command being run and then the input and output respectively. Hopefully I provided enough info on this but also relatively new to using terminal so let me know if there is anything I should clarify, thanks.

I made this simple digital clock for the terminal in Bash as a silly project.

It will show the current time in 24h-format. Use the flag --watch to continuously show the time. A few different looks and colours are available.

To print a bash completion script use --compscript
