This wasn't too difficult to do for Ubuntu 15.04 and I assume the process for 14.04 would be the same. I first had to install zsh
sudo apt-get install zsh
and then restart my computer. I don't know why I had to restart but installing oh-my-zsh wouldn't work properly until I did. Then you need to make sure git is installed.
sudo apt-get install git
Once I restarted my computer I installed oh-my-zsh.
wget https://raw.github.com/robbyrussell/oh-my-zsh/master/tools/install.sh -O - | sh
OR if you have curl
curl -L https://raw.github.com/robbyrussell/oh-my-zsh/master/tools/install.sh | sh
Finally make zsh your default shell
chsh -s /bin/zsh
After these things are installed all you need to do is add babun theme to your oh-my-zsh/themes folder.
cd ~/.oh-my-zsh/custom
wget https://github.com/babun/babun/blob/master/babun-core/plugins/oh-my-zsh/src/babun.zsh-theme
Then edit your .zshrc Find the line:
ZSH_THEME="robbyrussell"
and change it to:
ZSH_THEME="babun"
For the default ubuntu terminal I went to edit > profile preferences > colors And added the colors found at minttyrc.
- Uncheck: Use colors from system theme
- Uncheck: Use transparent background
- Uncheck: Use transparency from system theme
- Check: Same as text color
- Change all color boxes to the values below:
Text Color | Background Color |
---|---|
#d0d0d0 | #1c1c1c |
Black | Red | Green | Yellow | Blue | Magenta | Cyan | White | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Normal | #0c0c0c | #d78787 | #afd787 | #f7f7af | #87afd7 | #d7afd7 | #afd7d7 | #e6e6e6 |
Bright/Bold | #0a0a0a | #df8787 | #afdf87 | #ffffaf | #87afdf | #dfafdf | #afdfdf | #eeeeee |
I don't know how to automate the color changes. I was looking for a dot file that stores these colors but I couldn't find one. If someone knows where it is I would love to be able to automate this in a shell script so I can have a gist to put this setup on any new Ubuntu installation.
