Installation

April 23, 2021 ยท View on GitHub

This software is packaged as a Zsh theme to make it easier to use if you're already using a Zsh framework. If you don't already use a framework, @unixorn highly recommends Zgenom, because it is fast and also supports using oh-my-zsh's internal plugins/themes. I personally do all of my plugin/theme management through Oh My Zsh, an thus owe its many developers an eternal debt of gratitude.


Oh My Zsh

  1. Move to user $HOME directory (i.e. "~"):

    cd

  2. Download michaelpass theme from GitHub:

    git clone git@github.com:michaelpass/michaelpass.zsh-theme michaelpass

  3. Move into newly created directory

    cd michaelpass

  4. Copy theme to Zsh/Oh My Zsh themes directory

    cp michaelpass-zsh.theme $ZSH/themes

  5. Edit current theme to michaelpass:

    Open ~/.zshrc and change ZSH_THEME="..." to ZSH_THEME="michaelpass". Save.

  6. Reload Zsh config file:

    source ~/.zshrc

  7. Happy Hacking! ๐ŸŽ‰

POSIX-compliance

Note: Simply moving the theme to your Zsh themes folder and changing the current theme to "michaelpass" should work universally, regardless of what Zsh framework you choose.
