Right, and I happen to know exactly what I want, I want - from the repos, with the default configuration - if by configuration you mean install options - these programs feh mpv openbsd-cwm picom rtorrent tmux xpdf xterm zsh I also want Emacs but I'll install that myself thank you since I like a more recent version than the one found in the repos. But I used that or the corresponding ones during that period for several years so I know there's nothing wrong with it. Any idea how that would look? I mean the feh-zsh list. > There is a term "Configuration as code" To me it's just a configuration file like all software has or should have (like a man page and --help and --version options), that's the first step, if you then would like to go on and have a real programming language to do it (and more, better etc) like Elisp for Emacs, Lua for mpv etc that sounds great to me! CL for Debian maybe? Or Python since everyone uses that. Or both, only not in combination ... > There is a good explanation, and even a book! > https://martinfowler.com/bliki/InfrastructureAsCode.html Amazing! -- underground experts united https://dataswamp.org/~incal
