post	State of Terminal: 2015 Edition	2015-03-28 00:28	true	computing emacs osx terminal zsh

I do this every year to keep track of the changes in my style. This is the first that goes public though

• I've moved to a Macbook air 2013 edition as my primary laptop (a work perk, thanks @plivo).
• Emacs is the primary editor - I use el-get to manage my emacs packages (my init.el is hosted here), I also use mg heavily while I'm inside a terminal.
• iTerm2 for terminal. (My cheetsheet for for iterm is availabe here)
• zsh for shell, with antigen managing plugins and dependencies.
• vagrant for VMs, I tried using docker with boot2docker, but my needs are diffrent. I just need a linux box that runs all the time.
• Spectacle to manage windows. (Yes, I do miss Xmonad and i3)
• Firefox is the primary browser, sometimes chromium running for some special sites and tasks.
• Todoist is a great app to track todo lists, and the concept of gaming the task completion frequency and awarding points is a joy!
• Evernote everything goes inside this.
• KeePassX manages all my passwords.
• Tarsnap for backups, nuff said.
