Locking yourself out of SDDM with .bashrc

I’m going to SCaLEx23. I don’t tend to use my laptop as a primary device so I was transferring everything.

I literally can’t live without my aliases and shortcuts so in my rush I somehow moved a copy of my .bashrc into ~/.bashrc.d. Which doesn’t sound like a big deal except I have this in my main file.

if [ -d ~/.bashrc.d ]; then
for rc in ~/.bashrc.d/*.sh; do
 if [ -f "$rc" ]; then
 . "$rc"
 fi
done
fi 

Why load everything in? Because I’m lazy.

I like the fun linux commands that rice out your setup but I don’t like having to remember when/how to use them.

I’ve got my .bashrc that calls everything in .bashrc.d/*. In there I’ve started throwing in files with custom config options.

Here’s a quick ls function that’s context aware. I’ll be expanding it as I learn better ways to use eza or similar listing tools.

alias ls='_ls' 
# ls: use eza with git info inside git repos, plain ls elsewhere
_ls() {
 if git rev-parse --is-inside-work-tree &>/dev/null; then
 eza -l -h --git --git-repos --total-size --no-user --git-ignore --icons "$@"
 else
 command ls "$@"
 fi
}

Turns this
