## Managing Your Dotfiles
After installation, the `dotfiles` command is available in your shell:
```bash
# View status
dotfiles status
# Add changes
dotfiles add .bashrc
dotfiles commit -m "Update prompt"
dotfiles push
```
The alias is already defined in `.bashrc`, so it's available in new terminals.
## kitty Usage
## tmux Usage
tmux starts automatically when you open a new terminal (configured in `.bashrc`).
kitty is the terminal emulator - open it from your desktop launcher or run `kitty`.
**Basic Commands:**
| Command | Action |
|---------|--------|
| `tmux` | Start new session |
| `tmux ls` | List sessions |
| `tmux attach -t 0` | Attach to session 0 |
| `Ctrl+b d` | Detach from session |
| `Ctrl+b c` | Create new window |
| `Ctrl+b %` | Split vertically |
| `Ctrl+b "` | Split horizontally |
| `Ctrl+b [` | Copy/vi mode |
| `q` | Exit copy mode |
| `Ctrl+Shift+Enter` | New window |
| `Ctrl+Shift+]` | Horizontal split |
| `Ctrl+Shift+[` | Vertical split |
| `Ctrl+Shift+h/j/k/l` | Navigate splits |
| `Ctrl+Shift+Arrow` | Resize split |
| `Ctrl+Shift+c` | Copy to clipboard |
| `Ctrl+Shift+v` | Paste from clipboard |
| `Ctrl+Shift+p` | Scrollback pager |
| `Ctrl+Shift+h` | Show scrollback |
**Install TPM plugins:**
After first tmux start, press `Ctrl+b I` to install plugins (tpm, tmux-sensible, tmux-yank).
**Copy mode** (in scrollback): vi keys to navigate, Enter to copy selection.
**SSH**: When using kitty, run `ssh` normally - kitty intercepts it for a better experience.
