zsh_config

This repository contains custom configurations for the Zsh (Z Shell) environment and oh-my-zsh customization. These configurations aim to enhance the user experience by providing useful aliases, functions, and theme.

Preliminary steps

Install Zsh:

wget -O zsh.tar.xz https://sourceforge.net/projects/zsh/files/latest/download
mkdir zsh && unxz zsh.tar.xz && tar -xvf zsh.tar -C zsh --strip-components 1
cd zsh
./configure
make
make install

Set Zsh as the default shell:

chsh -s $(which zsh)

Install oh-my-zsh:

sh -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ohmyzsh/ohmyzsh/master/tools/install.sh)"

Installation of the .zshrc file

1. Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/yourusername/zsh_config.git

2. Navigate to the repository directory:

cd zsh_config

3. Copy the configuration files to your home directory:

cp .zshrc ~/

4. Reload the Zsh configuration:

Installation of the custom theme

1. Put the custom theme in the ~/.oh-my-zsh/custom/themes directory.

To do only once in your terminal:
