Massive configuration overhaul Currently paying the price of months of non-diligent git usage. Here's what has changed. - Theming support in Gvcci and wpgtk - Dropping support for i3 - Supporting EXWM - Many Elisp modules - Collapsed redundant directories in ./configs

# Some programs read from ~/.profile for values. It's best to set environment
# variables here instead of in ~/.zshrc or similar files, which are sourced
# everytime a new shell is created. The ~/.profile, on the other hand, is
# typically sourced only once at login.
# Taken from the EXWM configuration documentation.

Restore ssh-agent initialize in ~/.profile For two days I tried using gpg-agent to emulate ssh-agent, but it did not work the same way as ssh-agent. For example, gcert stopped working. Also, when I tried adding keys to ~/.gnupg/sshcontrol using `ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_rsa`, the command failed. While the concept of reusing gpg-agent for ssh-agent appeals to me... - Fewer agent processes - pinentry support ...in practice, it fell short of my expectations. Some or all of this may be because I tried running this on a gLinux machine.

# I tried configuring home-manager to generate the ssh-agent init code (i.e. the
# code below), but it seems that the home-manager community support using
# gpg-agent to emulate the ssh-agent. I tried that, but I didn't fully
# understand the benefits.

# This fixes nixpkgs that rely on glibc-2.27, which allegedly breaks locale

Start lorri daemon in ~/.profile This does two things: 1. Starts lorri daemon 2. Moves ssh-agent and docker daemon startup calls to ~/.profile I'm still not entirely sure when ~/.profile is evaluated... I'd like to use systemd to startup and manage these background services, but I currently don't have a strong enough desire to do this.

Support env vars for {DESK,LAP,CLOUD}TOP devices I recently changed my hostname for my desktop and laptop from wpcarro.lon.corp.google.com -> zeno.lon.corp.google.com wpcarro2 -> seneca If you're curious, the names Zeno and Seneca come from famous Stoic philosophers. As you can see from this commit, my configuration depends on the values of these hostnames. Immediately impacted: - .profile - device.el Not immediately impacted: - configs/install - configs/uninstall - .ssh/config - .zshrc* * As a side note, I should stop supporting ZSH. Using an .envrc file helps me DRY up some of my configuration. Ideally I should only need to make changes to the .envrc file and then expect everything to work as expected. Let's see how that goes.

# Set environment variables for Nix. Don't run this for systems running NixOS.
Rename dotfiles -> briefcase Renaming my mono-repo briefcase. I first introduced this commit in master, but it introduced a bug where one of two things would happen: 1. Emacs wouldn't start and would crash X. 2. Emacs would start but my keyboard wouldn't work. I learned some valuable debugging skills in the process. Here are some of them: When my keyboard was broken, I wanted to control my computer using my laptop. Thankfully this is possible by using `x2x`, which forward X events from the SSH client to the SSH host. ```shell > # I'm unsure if this is the *exact* command > ssh -X desktop x2x -west :0.0 ``` Git commit-local bisecting. I didn't need to do a `git bisect` because I knew which commit introduced the bug; it was HEAD, master. But -- as you can see from the size of this commit -- there are many changes involved. I wanted to binary search through the changes, so I did the following workflow using `magit`: - git reset --soft HEAD^ - git stash 1/2 of the files changed - re-run `nix-env -f ~/briefcase/emacs -i` - restart X session - If the problem persists, the bug exists in the non-stashed files. Repeat the process until you find the bug. In my case, the bug was pretty benign. Calling `(exwm/switch "Dotfiles")` at the bottom of `window-manager.el` was failing because "Dotfiles" is the name of a non-existent workspace; it should've been `(exwm/switch "Briefcase")`. There may have been more problems. I changed a few other things along the way, including exposing the env vars BRIEFCASE to `wpcarros-emacs` inside of `emacs/default.nix`. The important part is that this was a valuable learning opportunity, and I'm glad that I'm walking away from the two days of "lost productivity" feeling actually productive.
