RCRC(5) File Formats Manual RCRC(5) NAME rcrc -- configuration for rcm SYNOPSIS X="a b c" DESCRIPTION The rcm dotfile manager can be configured using a .rcrc file in your home directory. This location can be changed by setting the RCRC envi- ronment variable. The format is POSIX shell. It is sourced in by the lsrc(1), mkrc(1), rcdn(1), and rcup(1) programs. It supports these variables: COPY_ALWAYS always copy files that match the listed globs, never symlink them. DOTFILES_DIRS the source directories for dotfiles. The first in the list is the source to which dotfiles created using mkrc(1) are installed. The default value is ~/.dotfiles EXCLUDES a space-separated list of exclude patterns. Exclude pat- terns are explained in detail in lsrc(1) under the sec- tion "EXCLUDE PATTERN". HOSTNAME the hostname for this computer. This is normally com- puted using the hostname(1) command, but this command is non-standard and can prove unreliable. The HOSTNAME variable forces a known hostname. TAGS the default tags. SYMLINK_DIRS a space-separated list of patterns. Directories matching a pattern are symlinked instead of descended. Patterns are explained in detail in lsrc(1) under the section "EXCLUDE PATTERN". UNDOTTED a space separated list of patterns. Files matching this pattern will be symlinked without a leading dot. If a file is also in SYMLINK_DIRS, then the directory will be symlinked without a leading dot. Patterns are explained in detail in lsrc(1) under the section "EXCLUDE PATTERN".
