gnome automated configuration - universal Debian workstation

Main goal of this repo is to provide usable Gnome3 environment for users, that used to be Windows users. Settings are focused on privacy. Desktop metaphor is provided using modified window-list extension and others extensions. Default fonts and a lot of settings are changed.

Second goal is to provide standard configuration of tools, that I install on every workstation. List of all tools is below. All encodings, etc. are focused on using Polish and support ą, ę, ł, etc., but localization is en_US.

Everything is tested on Debian 8.

global config

For font installation and gnome theme and extension modifications:

su
chmod +x cp_to_usr_share.sh
./cp_to_usr_share.sh

user config

For installing standard config files and modify gnome dconf settings, run: ``'sh chmod +x gnome_config.sh ./gnome_config.sh
