Iterm2#

Iterm2 is a replacement for terminal in Mac.

  • Download Iterm2 and install it like other App. Or you can use brew install cask iterm2.

  • Download Dracula theme for Iterm2.

Activating Dracula Theme!

  • iTerm2 > Preferences > Profiles > Colors Tab

  • Open the Color Presets… drop-down in the bottom right corner

  • Select Import… from the list

  • Select the Dracula.itermcolors file

  • Select the Dracula from Color Presets…

Zsh#

Type Zsh --version in terminal. If the Zsh version is displayed, then Zsh is installed. Otherwise, you need to install Zsh.

brew install zsh

Run the following command to set the default Shell to Zsh:

chsh -s $(which zsh)

Note

  • Since macOS Catalina (10.15), the default Shell of macOS has changed from Bash to Zsh.

  • The configuration file of Zsh is ~/.zshrc, and of Bash is ~/.bashrc.

Oh-My-Zsh#

Oh My Zsh is an open source, community-driven framework for managing your zsh configuration.

# install
sh -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/robbyrussell/oh-my-zsh/master/tools/install.sh)"

This command will create the ~/.oh-my-zsh directory, downloads oh my zsh to this directory, and generates the default Zsh configuration file ~/.zshrc. The backup of the old configuration will be moved to a file like ~/.zshrc.pre-oh-my-zsh.

set theme#

To use a different theme, modify the ZSH_THEME variable in the ~/.zshrc configuration file. For example, I use Powerlevel10k theme.

# install
git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/romkatv/powerlevel10k.git ${ZSH_CUSTOM:-~/.oh-my-zsh/custom}/themes/powerlevel10k

# then open `~/.zshrc` and set `ZSH_THEME`:
ZSH_THEME="powerlevel10k/powerlevel10k

Run the following command to start the automatic configuration process:

p10k configure

After executing the command, p10k is initialized: ~/.p10k.zsh is generated in the root directory, and some code will be written at the bottom of ~/.zshrc as following:

# To customize prompt, run `p10k configure` or edit ~/.p10k.zsh.
[[ ! -f ~/.p10k.zsh ]] || source ~/.p10k.zsh

To disable the p10k configuration, you only need to delete ~/.p10k.zsh file and the preceding code.

download font#

  • Nerd Fonts is a project that patches developer targeted fonts with a high number of glyphs (icons). You can use brew to install, but it’s too large. So you can just download serveal file as following: open https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts/releases, and find Hack.zip in Assets part.

  • Double click to install those ttf file in your Mac, or you can download here. And set the font option in ~/.zshrc as following.

POWERLEVEL9K_MODE="nerdfont-complete"

add plugin#

Download different plugins to ~/.oh-my-zsh/plugins directory, and modify the plugins variable in the ~/.zshrc configuration file as following:

plugins=(
    git
    extract
    autojump
    zsh-autosuggestions
    zsh-syntax-highlighting
)

  • extract: use the x abc.zip syntax to decompress almost all compressed files, such as .tar.gz, .tar.bz2, .zip, .7z, .rar.

  • autojump: a faster way to navigate your filesystem. Jump to a directory that contains foo. Before enabling autojump, install firstly:

j foo

# download 'autojump' to '/.oh-my-zsh/custom'
git clone git://github.com/wting/autojump.git $ZSH_CUSTOM/plugins/autojump

# go to 'autojump' folder
cd $ZSH_CUSTOM/plugins/autojump

# python install.py:
./install.py

brew install autojump

  • zsh-autosuggestions: command auto-complete plug-in, when you enter several letters of a command, it will automatically complete the command according to the historical input.

git clone https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-autosuggestions ~/.oh-my-zsh/custom/plugins/zsh-autosuggestions

git clone https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-syntax-highlighting.git ~/.oh-my-zsh/custom/plugins/zsh-syntax-highlighting

# This plug-in needs to be the last bit in the list of plug-ins in the configuration file ~/.zshrc
plugins=([plugins...] zsh-syntax-highlighting)

  • colorls: File directory beautification plug-in

# install
gem install colorls

# set alias in ~/.zshrc file
alias lc='colorls -lA --sd'

# use
lc

Terminal in VSCode#

VSCode terminal can comes with a consistent interface, that just simply sets the font in VSCode setting as:

# set in vscode setting
terminal font = MesloLGS NF

Tmux#
