I’ve been trying to learn python and scripting in general. If I can make certain parts of my job easier by writing a script why not?<\/p>\n

With that I’ve taken to doing some customization on my environment.<\/p>\n

    \nUsing Zsh instead of bash (pulled from Homebrew)
    \noh-my-zsh<\/a> (customization of zsh)
    \n    Homebrew<\/a> (package manager, can install all kinds of fun things)
    \n    Pathogen<\/a> (runtime for VIM)
    \nhelp from friends!     Tony Mattke<\/a>, Teren Bryson<\/a> and others.
    \n    DropBox<\/a>
    \n    GitHub<\/a> of course!\n<\/ol>\n

    The problem I was having was how to keep my customization and scripts in sync between my work machine and my personal machine. The answer<\/a> I found, well one answer that works for me, is DropBox! Though you could probably use any cloud storage provider you wanted. I created a folder in my DropBox called “sync” and I symlink the files\/folders I want to keep in sync on both machines into it.<\/p>\n

    Now, when I make a change to my .vimrc, zsh custom folder, or basically anything else I have symlinked, the change gets reflected to the other machine.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
