.SS Configuration
|
|
.PP
|
|
\f[B]cheat\f[] is configured via a YAML file that is conventionally
|
|
named \f[I]conf.yaml\f[].
|
|
\f[B]cheat\f[] will search for \f[I]conf.yaml\f[] in varying locations,
|
|
depending upon your platform:
|
|
.SS Linux, OSX, and other Unixes
|
|
.IP "1." 3
|
|
\f[B]CHEAT_CONFIG_PATH\f[]
|
|
.IP "2." 3
|
|
\f[B]XDG_CONFIG_HOME\f[]/cheat/conf.yaml
|
|
.IP "3." 3
|
|
\f[B]$HOME\f[]/.config/cheat/conf.yml
|
|
.IP "4." 3
|
|
\f[B]$HOME\f[]/.cheat/conf.yml
|
|
.SS Windows
|
|
.IP "1." 3
|
|
\f[B]CHEAT_CONFIG_PATH\f[]
|
|
.IP "2." 3
|
|
\f[B]APPDATA\f[]/cheat/conf.yml
|
|
.IP "3." 3
|
|
\f[B]PROGRAMDATA\f[]/cheat/conf.yml
|
|
.PP
|
|
\f[B]cheat\f[] will search in the order specified above.
|
|
The first \f[I]conf.yaml\f[] encountered will be respected.
|
|
.PP
|
|
If \f[B]cheat\f[] cannot locate a config file, it will ask if you\[aq]d
|
|
like to generate one automatically.
|
|
Alternatively, you may also generate a config file manually by running
|
|
\f[B]cheat \-\-init\f[] and saving its output to the appropriate
|
|
location for your platform.
|
|
.SS Cheatpaths
|
|
.PP
|
|
\f[B]cheat\f[] reads its cheatsheets from "cheatpaths", which are the
|
|
directories in which cheatsheets are stored.
|
|
Cheatpaths may be configured in \f[I]conf.yaml\f[], and viewed via
|
|
\f[B]cheat \-d\f[].
|
|
.PP
|
|
For detailed instructions on how to configure cheatpaths, please refer
|
|
to the comments in conf.yml.
|
|
.SS Autocompletion
|
|
.PP
|
|
Autocompletion scripts for \f[B]bash\f[], \f[B]zsh\f[], and
|
|
\f[B]fish\f[] are available for download:
|
|
.IP \[bu] 2
|
|
<https://github.com/cheat/cheat/blob/master/scripts/cheat.bash>
|
|
.IP \[bu] 2
|
|

|
|
.IP \[bu] 2
|
|
<https://github.com/cheat/cheat/blob/master/scripts/cheat.zsh>
|
|
.PP
|
|
The \f[B]bash\f[] and \f[B]zsh\f[] scripts provide optional integration
|
|
with \f[B]fzf\f[], if the latter is available on your \f[B]PATH\f[].
|
|
.PP
|
|
The installation process will vary per system and shell configuration,
|
|
and thus will not be discussed here.
|
|
.SH ENVIRONMENT
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \f[B]CHEAT_CONFIG_PATH\f[]
|
|
The path at which the config file is available.
|

|

ignored.

.TP

.B \f[B]CHEAT_USE_FZF\f[]
