MKRC(1) General Commands Manual MKRC(1) NAME mkrc -- bless files into a dotfiles managed by rcm SYNOPSIS mkrc [-ChoqSsVvUukK] [-t tag] [-d dir] [-B hostname] files ... DESCRIPTION This program adds files to your dotfiles directory then update them back into your home directory. It can install files under a tag or install them in a different source directory. Remember to first create standard rc files, then use mkrc on them. It supports these options: -B HOSTNAME use the supplied hostname instead of computing one. Implies -o. -C copy instead of symlinking when installing the rc file back into your home directory. This will prevent future updates in the dot- files directory for added element, and its contents if it is a di- rectory. -d DIR install dotfiles under the specified directory. Use only once to override DOTFILES_DIRS value from RCRC and the absolute default value. -h show usage instructions. -o install dotfiles into the host-specific directory. -q decrease verbosity. -S treat the specified rc files as files to be symlinked, even if they are directories. -s if the rc file is a file, symlink it; otherwise, make a directory structure as described in rcup(1) in the section "ALGORITHM". This is the default. -t TAG install dotfiles according to tag -U the specified files or directories are to be installed without a leading dot. -u the specified files or directories are to be installed with a lead- ing dot. This is the default. -v increase verbosity. This can be repeated for extra verbosity. -V show the version number. -k pass -k to rcup when installing the made rc file. This option en- ables pre- and post-hooks, which is the default, making this effec- tively a no-op. See the "ALGORITHM" section in rcup(1). -K pass -K to rcup when installing the made rc file. This option pre- vents pre- and post-up hooks from running as part of creating the rc file. See the "ALGORITHM" section in rcup(1). ENVIRONMENT RCRC User configuration file. Defaults to ~/.rcrc.
