16) ### Download the project

17) 

18) There are two remote repos:

19) 

20) - **[git.dlma.com](https://git.dlma.com/dotfiles.git)**: Click Download and
21)   select Download ZIP or Download TAR.
22) - **[GitHub](https://github.com/dblume/dotfiles)**: Click the green Code button
23)   and select Local -> Download ZIP

24) 

25) ### Install from CLI

26) 

27) Run the following:

28) 
29)     ~$ mkdir dotfiles
30)     ~$ cd dotfiles

31)     dotfiles$ curl -L https://git.dlma.com/dotfiles.git/archive/HEAD.tar > dotfiles.tar

32)     dotfiles$ tar -xvf dotfiles.tar
