Dec 24, 2014 · The main disadvantages are security, if someone can alter the config file then they can execute code, and it is harder to make it idiot proof. The advantages are speed, on a simple test it is more than 10,000 times faster to source a config file than to run pq, and flexibility, anyone who likes monkey patching python will appreciate this. –

So you can do something like this: On Arch Linux: pkgfile <package name> | grep etc For an AUR package, you do a tar of the built TAR file, e.g. tar tvf ~/.cache/yay/<package name>/<package name and version>.tar.xz | grep etc On Debian / Ubuntu / Linux Mint: apt-file <package name> | grep etc

A file or folder name starting with a . is the Linux version of a hidden file/folder. So ~/.config is a hidden folder within your home directory. Open up your file browser to your home folder, then find the option to show hidden files and folders. If you don't see .config, you'll have to create it.

There are a lot of ways to approach this, but the all boil down to: write the interpolated result to a buffer or write to a different file. Because your example looks config and deploy related, I prefer to use a makeesque build and install workflow, where we write the interpolated results to a dist or build directory, and then work against that.

Apr 13, 2021 · Starting with tmux version 3.1, ~/.config/tmux/tmux.conf works as an alternative to ~/.tmux.conf. Notice that it cannot be a hidden file in that directory. Share

To find out what to change, I first did a recursive-list of gconf and saved it to a file: gconftool-2 --recursive-list / > beforeConfig.txt Then I started ibus-setup , and did 'Select an Input Method', Japanese, Anthy, Add, Close.

Sep 2, 2024 · It's common to keep kernel source trees in /usr/src; if you did the compilation in /usr/src/linux-3.0.7 then your .config file is in /usr/src/linux-3.0.7/.config. (Since this is a dot file, the ls command doesn't show it unless run with the -a flag.) Many distributions arrange to copy the .config file into the package containing the kernel, and ...
