 # Dotfiles
-You can clone directly into your home directory to use these.\
+My configurations for programs.
-I use the method described here https://www.anand-iyer.com/blog/2018/a-simpler-way-to-manage-your-dotfiles.html.
 
-The Neovim dots (.config/nvim) require Neovim 0.5.0 or greater.\
+## Requirements
-The system info script & .zshrc requires a nerd font (https://www.nerdfonts.com/).
+The Neovim dots (.config/nvim) require Neovim 0.5.0 or greater, with packer installed.\
+The system info script & .zshrc requires a nerd font (https://www.nerdfonts.com/).
+
+## Installation
+`git clone https://gitdab.com/endie/dotfiles.git`, then move/symlink the files you want to the 
+correct places relative to your home directory\
+Alternatively, you can clone these directly into your home directory with 
+`git clone --separate-git-dir=$HOME/dotfiles https://gitdab.com/endie/dotfiles.git ~`,
+but that will not work if the files are already in your home directory
+
+## Help
+### None of the Neovim configuration is working / errors when starting Neovim
+* Make sure your Neovim meets the requirements
+> * Currently 0.5.0 is not released yet, so you will have to use a prerelease build
+> * Install packer by running 
+`git clone https://github.com/wbthomason/packer.nvim
+~/.local/share/nvim/site/pack/packer/start/packer.nvim`
+* If your Neovim meets the requirements, try running `:PackerSync` in Neovim
+
+### The presence.nvim Neovim plugin is not working
+* You might have to add Neovim as a game in your Discord client (settings > game activity)
+
+### The Materia GTK theme looks wrong when generated with the oomox colors
+* Run `find /path/to/generated_theme -name "*.css" -print | xargs sed -i "s/230000/242424/g"`,
+replacing `/path/to/generated_theme` with the location of the theme you generated 
+(by default ~/.themes/oomox-Pastls).
