Yet another dotfiles repo! Files are organized by hostname and maintained by [update.sh](./update.sh)

A _relatively_ recent Linux desktop is assumed throughout; PRs are always welcome!
_I use Fedora btw :)_

## Notable entries

### i3/Sway auto-start script

Time/date aware autostart manager. The script: [.config/sway/scripts/startup.py](./outerheaven.init3.home/.config/sway/scripts/startup.py)

This is run by Sway on-login:

```bash
~ $ cat ~/.config/sway/config
# Config for sway
#
# See `man 5 sway` for a complete reference.
# [...]
# run script which handles conditional/timely autostarts. uses dict w/ this structure:
# {'autostarts': { 'pre': [], 'weekend': [], 'common': [], 'work': []}}
exec 'python3 ~/.config/sway/scripts/startup.py'
```

This reads [autostart-i3ipc.yml](./outerheaven.init3.home/.config/autostart-i3ipc.yml)
_(in `~/.config`)_ to know what programs to `exec`.

Example with in-line comments:

```yaml
---
autostarts:
  pre: []     # *always* run, before/blocking others. ie: backup
  weekend: [] # blocking Sat/Sun. after 'pre'/before 'common'. ie: backup tier 2
  common: []  # things started every day, after 'pre' - non-blocking
  work: []    # does not execute on weekends; only if within working day/hours
```

Touch `~/.vacation` to skip `work` autostarts; `rm` when work may continue :)

Working days are assumed Monday through Friday. Hours are between 8 AM and 4 PM.
These parameters may be changed in the `WorkTime` class.
