OSX

Okay here we go into OSX land I guess????

Homebrew

It's apt-get for osx.

Run the command listed here: https://brew.sh/

Better bash

Do this stuff to get bash 4.x:

$ brew install bash bash-completion
$ sudo -i
Password:  
# echo "$(brew --prefix)/bin/bash" >> /etc/shells
# exit
$ chsh -s $(brew --prefix)/bin/bash

My kit

My environment kit does work on OSX. You just need modern Bash (see above) and modern base64:

$ brew install base64

Then deploy kit per usual.

Kit tweaks

  • Change ls alias from "ls –color=auto" to "ls -G" in .mybashrc
  • Remove bin/clear

One-finger drag

I can't understand why, but standard one-finger tap-then-drag isn't enabled by default. Weirdly, the option is NOT under "Trackpad", but rather in the trackpad part of the Accessibility options. See here for details.

More brew stuff

This is basically the cygwin list adapted for brew:

$ brew install lynx links nano wget rsync unzip vim openssh screen gcc gdb make bash-completion git python3
