L's Dotfile Repository
----------------------
This repo is intended to contain all the configurations I require to get
my environment setup on a new install. It is secondarily a template for
other people to use who might have an interest in doing so.
How does this differ from `GNU Stow`_, other than being less featured? NIH,
mostly.

Howto
=====
| Move any desired files in your home directory into the git directory.
| Add the filename to "linked_files", each on its own line.
| Run "./make_links"
| The output should indicate any links made ("linked ...") or files
that already existed ("... already exists, skipping") or removed
("... removed")
make_links usage
================
| make_links will link out the contents of \"linked_files\" to your home dir
|
| Syntax: make_links [-d|-h|-l|-n|-m]
| options:
| -d, --destructive Destructively link (removes existing symlinks AND regular files)
| -h, --help Print this help
| -l, --license Print the license for make_links
| -n, --nondestructive Non-destructively link (existing files and links will be left alone)
| -m, --make-documentation Converts documentation READMEs from rst to HTML
Prerequisites
=============
make_links *should* not require bash, just the standard posix sh
Required Modifications
======================
.mpdconf
update the directory paths at the top (/home/christopher) to
the home directory of your machine, as well as the run directory
