hey! I was looking at installing exa but it seems to be only in master (unstable?) and not 20.09. is there a way I can install it, or would I have to either backport it or wait until 21.05 releases?

More a question for #nixos but you can just do (import nixpkgs-tarball).pkgs.exa.

That pretty much has the full explanation. You could also add an unstable channel. And you could use an overlay to make it neater.

I was more referring to home-manager's programs.exa so I could use enableAliases. I probably should have mentioned that before. I hadn't seen that wiki page before, though, looks very useful, so thanks.
<noobstar>
I suppose it wouldn't be too much work to add the aliases manually & just install normally either way
<noobstar>
yep, got it all working. thanks!
