dune.zsh

May 1, 2026 ยท View on GitHub

A simple, effective zsh plugin to print dune (mainly the first book, but some from the movies and other books) quotes in the terminal when you open a new shell. Great, perhaps inspirational way to start of a session!

Installation

  1. Clone into your plugins directory, e.g.
git clone https://github.com/BitPeppr/dune.zsh.git ~/.zsh_plugins/dune
  1. Source the plugin in your .zshrc file, e.g.
source ~/.zsh_plugins/dune/dune.zsh
  1. Open a new terminal session and enjoy the quotes!

Credits

This project was heavily inspired by brokendisk's dune-quotes. However, the rather limited quote selection felt slightly underwhelming, so I decided to create this plugin with a much larger selection of quotes. Please check out his plugin too!
