My dotfiles + install script

My dotfiles and install script for a minimalist archlinux setup.

---

Disclaimer

This repository is mainly intended to be a backup of my linux setup. These dotfiles are designed to work well for my use, this is how I like to configure my archlinux system and I would just like to archive my configurations and/or share them with anyone who thinks it's cool (i'm also learning how to rice linux, and it's still pretty ugly). If you're looking for more complete, beautiful and flexible setups, there are several on github like this, this, this, this or this.

I test this only in fresh arch instalations.

Not tested in VM either.
