- | ====== OSX ====== | ||
- | Okay here we go into OSX land I guess???? | ||
- | |||
- | ===== Install OS on a wiped Mac ===== | ||
- | One nice thing on Mac is that you can install the OS from scratch with nothing. Hit power-on, and hold one of these: | ||
- | * Command-R: Start up from the built-in macOS Recovery system. | ||
- | * Option-Command-R: | ||
- | * Shift-Option-Command-R: | ||
- | |||
- | Why not have the above just ask you with a nice menu what to install and how? No goddamn clue. Anyway, [[https:// | ||
- | |||
- | NOTE: If you have a 2015-era Mac and you try to install the latest MacOS, it may fail cryptically with an error like " | ||
- | |||
- | ===== App store and AppleID ===== | ||
- | In this walled garden nightmware world, you have to have an AppleID to make just about anything work. [[https:// | ||
- | |||
- | ===== OS update ===== | ||
- | These idiot goblins forgot what numbers are, so [[https:// | ||
- | |||
- | If updating from " | ||
- | |||
- | Then, and I can't stress enough how magically stupid this is, when you login to the app store, do it normally once and have it fail, then put in your password //and concatenate the MFA code you just got//. Then you can actually login and get the OS update. The new OS will be aware of MFA. | ||
- | |||
- | ===== Homebrew ===== | ||
- | It's apt-get for osx. | ||
- | |||
- | Run the command listed here: https:// | ||
- | |||
- | You might have to manually install the XCode Command Line tools from [[http:// | ||
- | |||
- | ===== Better bash ===== | ||
- | Do [[https:// | ||
- | |||
- | $ brew install bash bash-completion | ||
- | $ sudo -i | ||
- | Password: | ||
- | # echo " | ||
- | # exit | ||
- | $ chsh -s $(brew --prefix)/ | ||
- | |||
- | ===== Default to brew-based utils ===== | ||
- | The shell is now changed, but if you type " | ||
- | |||
- | export PATH=/ | ||
- | |||
- | ===== Terminal settings ===== | ||
- | Import [[http:// | ||
- | * Correct colors (background=black, | ||
- | * Decent default shell size (~100x30) | ||
- | * In ' | ||
- | * Set profile as default & startup | ||
- | |||
- | Resist the urge to start with ' | ||
- | ===== 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. | ||
- | |||
- | Shell settings may not be deployed automatically -- in this case, add " | ||

- | ==== Kit tweaks ==== | ||
- | * Change ls alias from "ls --color=auto" | ||
- | * 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 " | ||
- | |||
- | ===== Scroll the correct way ===== | ||
- | All scrolling is backwards by default. To fix: | ||

- | ===== 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 | ||
