 ### todo items
 - choose window manager for linux, then configure
 - config for: terminal (ghostty); shell; mpd, mpc, ncmpcpp; mpv
 - decide on docker? or alternatives like podman? any license concerns?
+- switch installation approach, use csv file with programs to install, install types,
+  any extra flags/opts, comments
+    - regarding the system-types idea i'd started to build in already, maybe have a
+      column for filtering in the csv file, or just have multiple csv files corresponding
+      to a base/core install, a music-studio install, a employer/work machine, etc.
+- add command in tmux to perform cd to a given dir in all windows of the current session
