Awesome terminal

cool terminal

This gists contains my terminal setup on Ubuntu 16.04 which includes:

  • ZSH
  • Oh-my-zsh
  • Terminator (optional, also work with gnome-terminal)
  • Powerline symbols
  • Mononoki font
  • Solarized
  • dircolors-solarized
  • basic zshrc config including:
  • agnoster theme
  • default user (shortened prompt)
  • zsh syntax highlighting
  • autojump, git, colored-man-pages, web-search plugins and more...

It is mainly copy/paste from several other gists, and few additional personal stuff:

Fonts (Mononoki, Powerline symbols)

mv PowerlineSymbols.otf ~/.fonts/

If ~/.config/fontconfig/conf.d does not exist already: mkdir -p ~/.config/fontconfig/conf.d

mv 10-powerline-symbols.conf ~/.config/fontconfig/conf.d/

Then install mononoki which is a very nice font.
