Exclamation3
This is obsolete
Though it still works and the bash scripts are still updated, but there is a newer way to add my profile to your system. I now use manup, the generic unix package manager for my profiles.

I find it very useful to keep lots of information here on my wiki, but also on my local computer. There \
are several articles around this wiki that have a curl flag like {curl.something} and {/curl.something}
These flags are used for curl to parse out certain information through a command line. This page contains all installers...

Organization[-][- -][++]

I like all my reference commands to be accessible as root and normal user, so I install everything to /etc/nwq/profiles/* and source it through each users ~/.bashrc.

For convenience, mreschke curl aliases start with mr.

First Time Setup[-][- -][++]

Run this for all the users on your system (so login as each user, including root, and run this)

BASH Code Snippet
echo "source /etc/nwq/profiles/profile" >> ~/.bashrc
 

Login to terminal as ROOT, and run this command

BASH Code Snippet
wget http://mreschke.com/files/172/initial.sh && chmod a+x initial.sh && ./initial.sh && rm ./initial.sh
 

Install Aliases[-][- -][++]

See the wiki article at Public Shell Profile

Sets up your bash aliases (to a list of my favorites)
Run only once as root user

BASH Code Snippet
echo "alias mr.aliaspublic-update=\"wget -O /etc/nwq/profiles/alias.public http://mreschke.com/files/86/alias.linux.sh; source /etc/nwq/profiles/profile\"" >> /etc/nwq/profiles/alias.master
source /etc/nwq/profiles/profile
mr.aliaspublic-update
 

Install Functions[-][- -][++]

See the wiki article at Public Shell Profile

Sets up your bash aliases (to a list of my favorites)
Run only once as root user

BASH Code Snippet
echo "alias mr.functionpublic-update=\"wget -O /etc/nwq/profiles/functions.public http://mreschke.com/files/86/functions.linux.sh; source /etc/nwq/profiles/profile\"" >> /etc/nwq/profiles/alias.master
source /etc/nwq/profiles/profile
mr.functionpublic-update
 

Install Prompts[-][- -][++]

See the wiki article at Public Shell Profile

Sets up your bash prompts (to a list of my favorites)
Run only once as root user

BASH Code Snippet
echo "alias mr.prompt-update=\"wget -O /etc/nwq/profiles/prompt http://mreschke.com/files/86/prompt.linux.sh; source /etc/nwq/profiles/profile\"" >> /etc/nwq/profiles/alias.master
source /etc/nwq/profiles/profile
mr.prompt-update
 

Install Favorite Commands (favcom)[-][- -][++]

See the wiki article at Favorite Linux Commands

Sets up my favcom (Favorite Linux Commands) cheat sheet on your local computer to access anytime with \
the simple command 'mr.favcom'. You can update your cheat sheet to my repository with 'mr.favcom-update'

Run only once as root user

BASH Code Snippet
echo "alias mr.favcom='less /etc/nwq/favcom.ref'" >> /etc/nwq/profiles/alias.master
echo "alias mr.favcom-update=\"wget -O /etc/nwq/favcom.ref http://mreschke.com/files/25/favcom.txt; source /etc/nwq/profiles/profile\"" >> /etc/nwq/profiles/alias.master
source /etc/nwq/profiles/profile
mr.favcom-update
