bgrc

Improvements or suggestions to your shell experience with extensions useful for sysadmins.

bgrc is a set of improvements and suggestions from the simple defaults in your shell experience; and extensions useful for sysadmins. Improvements are currently available for bash, vim and screen. Investigate and cherry-pick or trying using deploy_bgrc to deploy the whole environment.

Quickstart

To deploy the whole environment:

git clone --recursive https://github.com/benvaljean/bgrc.git
cd bgrc
bin/deploy_bgrc -l

.screenrc and .vimrc deploy is skipped if your own version is already present

Sysadmin extensions

  • bginfo Show basic system information - system model and serial, cpu cores and RAM
  • Post-login icons Show a character before the prompt upon login based on criteria eg. you have screens running

bgvimrc

.vimrc Improvements to vimrc
