The value of $TERM in bash is: ~]$ echo ~]$ tput colorsĬheck $TERM value inside tmux session. It kept saying screen as the value until I restarted all tmux processes, at which point it reflected xterm-256color as expected.įedora 29 workstation x86_64, GNOME Terminal 3.30.1 You can test what Vim is seeing by doing echo $TERM from within a tmux session. I simply added set -g default-terminal "xterm-256color" to ~/.nf on my remote machine and restarted all remote tmux processes. I got my remote setup (ssh to Ubuntu 14.04) to work exactly the same way without any modifications to. All I did was add the line set -g default-terminal "xterm-256color" to ~/.nf and restarted all tmux processes. I got my setup to work on my local machine (OSX 10.9.5 with iTerm2) without any modification to. I don't know if others are doing this as well but I recommend closing all tmux processes before modifying the.

The next time I restarted tmux the default-terminal setting in.

I re-attached my session, closed out my processes, and closed ALL tmux processes. I remembered that I had a tmux session in the background. I, like others here, was having a difficult time getting the default-terminal setting to take effect. I am going to open it in Vim.I just discovered why I was having a lot of confusion. Now we are ready to set the default theme.
#Iterm2 color schemes pro
Now we just need to open the Iterm2 Preferences –> Profiles –> Font –> And chose “Source Code Pro for Powerline”
#Iterm2 color schemes install
To install the fonts go to the following link: and press the “Download” button. The font i am installing here is called “Source Code Pro for Powerline”
#Iterm2 color schemes download
Now before we set the theme we want to download the fonts and we are going with powerline fonts. This command will git clone the theme into your custom themes folder for Oh My Zsh: We can find the instructions and alot of info on the Theme by going to the Github page: īut we only need to enter a one-line command into the terminal git clone -depth=1 $/themes/powerlevel10k Installing and configuring Powerlevel10k theme for Oh My Zshįirst we need to dowload the Powerlevel10k. Then there are of course also the tools which we will install, such as Homebrew(package manager), Autosuggestions(terminal intellisense) and Syntax Highlighting which will make you faster and better at using the terminal. The best way to do this is of course by using the terminal, and by making it sexy, and something i have configured and customised my self, i know i will be much more likely to use it and learn more about it, than if it was just the standard terminal. One of my goals in my job as a sysadmin is to be able to manage almost all of my daily tasks through the terminal. This releation can also be a key component for wanting to use this thing, you customised or created your self, much more. The way you relate to the projected you have committed to, studied on and completed is on a hole other level than, if you just bought a new computer or if you had a mechanic fix your car. I think of it as when, you build your own computer, fix your own car, or renovate a room in your house.

I think most often people will customise it to make it look a bit more cooler, or to set a personal touch on the tool, and i think it is a good idea to do it. There is a alot of reasons for why you would want to customise your terminal. Why Even Bother customising your terminal
