4 Keep all those pesky config files in one place. Inspired by (and
5 sharing much code with) [Steve Kemp's implementation][SK] (Steve's
6 [blog post][] gives a bit of historical background).

8 I've restructured things a bit so the [installation
9 framework][framework] is a stand-alone package (containing
10 `dotfiles.sh`).  You can install several dotfiles repositories in
11 parallel, allowing you to publish your public dotfiles for general
12 consumption, while at the same time distributing your private dotfiles
13 over secure channels.  See the [README][] for more details.
14
15 Steve's also moving off in this direction with his
16 [dotfile-manager][], and his manager has been [forked into
17 Python][dotfilemanager] by Sean Hammond.
