How to write my own script?

The main script will invoke the setup scripts with package manager installation command as an argument. For example, if your package manager is pacman then pacman -S will be provided to your script as a command line argument. Note that the script runs as root.

The logic of the command is entirely up to you. Feel free (and I encourage you to) steal use the source from utils.sh in your own setup scripts, like so:

source "../utils.sh"

As an example, consider the script below that sets up `tmux` and `tpm` plugin manager. The file is named `tmux`, so having `tmux` in the installation list will invoke this script:
```sh
#!/bin/bash

source "../utils.sh"

inst tmux 

# Plugin support
git clone https://github.com/tmux-plugins/tpm ${SETUP_HOME_DIR}/.tmux/plugins/tpm
log::msg "Installing tmux plugins..."
TMUX_PLUGIN_MANAGER_PATH=${SETUP_HOME_DIR}/.tmux/plugins ${SETUP_HOME_DIR}/.tmux/plugins/tpm/scripts/install_plugins.sh
log::msg "tmux plugins installed"

To distinguish different procedures on different distributions, you can use different filenames (e.g., use a different suffix). Check out docker_arch.sh and docker_deb.sh for an example.
