    Installed Trac!

    Kent Cowgill

    So after some prompting, I added a few of my configuration files to subversion. In order to do that, though - I had to adjust them so they'd work no matter where they are.

    For example, in my .vimrc file, I had to separate out the bits that makes my Mac happy from the bits that make the account on my server happy. This is what I seemed to settle on, but I'm not 100% sure it's the cleanest way to do it - I'm counting on the fact that my $HOME directory is particularly unique on my mac versus more unixy boxes:

    if exists( "$HOME" )
      if $HOME == '/Users/kentcowgill'
    " my mac and terminal settings need this
    " to display color correctly.
        set term=xterm-color
    " etc...
      else
        set term=xterm
    " etc...
      endif
    else
      set term=xterm
    " etc...
    endif

    The good news is that I've also installed Trac, adjusted the templates a bit to match the rest of my look and feel, and the end result can be viewed in the dotfiles section of my site.

    Enjoy browsing around. The rest of my .vimrc is nicely loaded into Trac.

    I'm working on making the rest of my code presentable, so that'll show up soon enough.
