Installation

1. Clone this repository to your home directory:

   git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/abzcoding/dotfiles.git ~/dotfiles

2. Create symbolic links for the configuration files you want to use:

   ln -s ~/dotfiles/.zshrc ~/.zshrc
   ln -s ~/dotfiles/.aliasses ~/.aliasses
   ln -s ~/dotfiles/.tmux.conf ~/.tmux.conf
   # Add more links as needed

3. For application-specific configs, create symbolic links to their expected locations:

   # For Oh My Posh
   ln -s ~/dotfiles/ohmyposh ~/.config/ohmyposh
   
   # For Starship
   ln -s ~/dotfiles/starship.toml ~/.config/starship.toml
   
   # For terminal emulators and editors, link to their expected config locations
   # (paths may vary based on your system)
