Thanks. I didn’t do a separate home directory the last few times I installed. I got lazy.
Does your script install the programs and then set the preferences or settings and set it up how you like? For instance, I have a mouse gesture program that takes a lot of personal settings for instance d rawing a “c” will “close window” or “pull up the calculator “, andmthere are like 20 or so custom settings that I have to redo everytime I reinstall.
It can. Probably the easiest way to do it would be to set it up manually the first time, them copy the configuration file to /home/Bob434/configs/ or something like that, then you can just copy it into the correct location when you run the script.
Laziness is exactly why I set it up this way. If I don't have to re-configure everything in /home/Shadow/.config then I won't.
