Manual Configuration¶
While the Pimarchy Template System handles the bulk of the work, you can always make manual tweaks directly to your system.
1. Edit User Configs¶
All configuration files are deployed to their standard locations in ~/.config/.
| Component | Path |
|---|---|
| Hyprland | ~/.config/hypr/hyprland.conf |
| Waybar | ~/.config/waybar/config.jsonc |
| Alacritty | ~/.config/alacritty/alacritty.toml |
| Rofi | ~/.config/rofi/config.rasi |
| Mako | ~/.config/mako/config |
| Starship | ~/.config/starship.toml |
Installer Overwrites
If you edit files in ~/.config/ directly, they may be overwritten the next time you run bash install.sh. To make permanent changes that survive updates, edit the templates in the pimarchy repository.
2. Shell Aliases¶
Pimarchy adds several useful aliases to your ~/.bashrc. These are defined in config/shell/aliases.sh.template.
Common aliases:
- pau: sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade -y (Pi-specific update)
- ll: ls -laF (Detailed file listing)
- grep: grep --color=auto (Colored output)
3. GTK Theme¶
Pimarchy sets a consistent GTK2 and GTK3 theme using the Ravenwood color palette. This ensures that applications like Thunar or GIMP look at home in your desktop environment.
You can modify these settings in:
- ~/.gtkrc-2.0
- ~/.config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini
4. Environment Variables¶
System-wide environment variables for the Wayland session are set in ~/.config/hypr/hyprland.conf.
Default settings:
