Prezto — Instantly Awesome Zsh
|
|
==============================
|
|
|
|
Prezto is the configuration framework for [Zsh][1]; it enriches the command line
|
|
interface environment with sane defaults, aliases, functions, auto completion,
|
|
and prompt themes.
|
|
|
|
Installation
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
Prezto will work with any recent release of Zsh, but the minimum recommended
|
|
version is 4.3.11. Unfortunately, [Cygwin][9] is not supported due to
|
|
non-standard core utilities.
|
|
|
|
1. Launch Zsh:
|
|
|
|
zsh
|
|
|
|
2. Clone the repository:
|
|
|
|
git clone --recursive https://github.com/sorin-ionescu/prezto.git "${ZDOTDIR:-$HOME}/.zprezto"
|
|
|
|
3. Create a new Zsh configuration by copying the Zsh configuration files
|
|
provided:
|
|
|
|
setopt EXTENDED_GLOB
|
|
for rcfile in "${ZDOTDIR:-$HOME}"/.zprezto/runcoms/^README.md(.N); do
|
|
ln -s "$rcfile" "${ZDOTDIR:-$HOME}/.${rcfile:t}"
|
|
done
|
|
|
|
4. Set Zsh as your default shell:
|
|
|
|
chsh -s /bin/zsh
|
|
|
|
5. Open a new Zsh terminal window or tab.
|
|
|
|
### Troubleshooting
|
|
|
|
If you are not able to find certain commands after switching to *Prezto*,
|
|
modify the `PATH` variable in *~/.zshenv* then open a new Zsh terminal
|
|
window or tab.
|
|
|
|
Updating
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
Pull the latest changes and update submodules.
|
|
|
|
git pull && git submodule update --init --recursive
|
|
|
|
Usage
|
|
-----
|
|
|
|
Prezto has many features disabled by default. Read the source code and
|
|
accompanying README files to learn of what is available.
|
|
|
|
### Modules
|
|
|
|
1. Browse */modules* to see what is available.
|
|
2. Load the modules you need in *~/.zpreztorc* then open a new Zsh terminal
|
|
window or tab.
|
|
|
|
### Themes
|
|
|
|
1. For a list of themes, type `prompt -l`.
|
|
2. To preview a theme, type `prompt -p name`.
|
|
3. Load the theme you like in *~/.zpreztorc* then open a new Zsh terminal
|
|
window or tab.

Customization

|
|
project; so, that you can commit your changes and push them to [GitHub][4] to
|
|
not lose them. If you do not know how to use Git, follow this [tutorial][5] and
