Install Zsh and Oh-my-zsh on CentOS 7

Based on this article

ALL INSTALLATIONS ASSUME YES WHEN PROMPTED, that's what -y does

This script can be copy paste to ssh as is. No hands installation. :-)

yum install zsh -y
chsh -s /bin/zsh root
echo $SHELL
yum install wget git -y
wget https://github.com/robbyrussell/oh-my-zsh/raw/master/tools/install.sh -O - | zsh

/bin/cp ~/.oh-my-zsh/templates/zshrc.zsh-template ~/.zshrc
source ~/.zshrc

Btw. RockyLinux is way to go, guys. I really like it so far. Although, RedHat, mastered by evil corp IBM, tries to do everything possible to kill other variants of RHEL

To fix "zsh: command not found: chsh" on Roky , please install util-linux-user

yum install zsh -y                                                                                     
chsh -s /bin/zsh root
echo $SHELL
