# Auto .file manager
Auto.s is a dotfile manager written in posix sh. It's main goal is to provide a
simple way to manage your dotfiles without leaving a footprint when it's done.
## How to
For information on arguments run: `auto. -h`
### topography
Auto.s uses a custom file format which is used to define what you want to do.
Currently the topography format supports 4 options which may be used like so:
```topography
# a comment

$$ echo "a shell command"

# copying files
filea -> fileb

# the copy command may also be prefixed with a # like so:
filea #-> fileb
# which will copy the file as root

# symbolically linking files
filea ~> fileb

# the link command may be prefixed just like the copy command
filea #~> fileb

# installing programs
:: neovim,firefox,neofetch
```

The main advantage of using the custom options over a simple shell script is the
ability to uninstall and install using just one line.
