Welcome to my .dotfiles

If ever I need to setup my user account on a new machine, all I need to do is copy a few key files and my environment will be exactly as I have become accustomed.

It's also handy to have a central source for them - I've started taking a little extra effort to create my various shell and vim rc files so that they work without modification on a number of different platforms. For example, on my MacBook Pro, my particular combination of Terminal.app settings and my custom compiled vim requires :set term=ansi in my .vimrc. However, my accounts on FreeBSD and Linux machines don't care for that and much prefer :set term=xterm. There's a few other differences, but the main point is that no matter where I am, my environment can easily be the same.

Currently hosting the following files: .shrc, .vimrc, .perlcriticrc, .perltidyrc. Also my entire .vim directory, to keep all the plugins I've gotten used to.
