Installation steps for a new machine

These are not necessarily related to Fish shell but are still useful to have been written down somewhere.

• Change password (and possibly set up touch ID)
• Set up spaces and their keyboard shortcuts (System Settings > Keyboard > Keyboard shortcuts... > Mission Control)
• Install:
  • Google Chrome
  • iTerm2
  • Command Line Tools (CLT) for Xcode: xcode-select --install (this includes Git installation)
  • Homebrew
  • Rectangle: brew install --cask rectangle, import the config in this repo — and if needed, run bash ./rectangle-eighths.sh
  • Fish shell: brew install fish (and make it the default shell)
  • Oh My Fish
  • bobthefish - Fish theme
  • Fira Mono font from powerline fonts
  • Hasklig font for Intellij Idea
• Customise the folder color in iTerm (blue color to lighter one)
• Remove the "Search man Page Index in Terminal" keyboard shortcut in System Settings, under Services > Text (clashes with IntelliJ shortcut)
