It uses flexible and fast [antidote](https://antidote.sh/) plugin manager. Some modules from [Prezto configuration framework](https://github.com/sorin-ionescu/prezto) are used and [some are forked from them](#forked-prezto-modules). Aimed for Linux but this should work in Mac too although isn't actively tested.\n\n## Features\n\n- Full featured, yet fast.\n- Good settings mainly from Prezto.\n- Many aliases, user functions and keybindings.\n- Many plugins and snippets and their settings loaded with deferred loading for faster startup.\n\ntitles.zsh: My custom plugin / snippet forked originally from Prezto module.\nIt Updates terminal's window and titles dynamically based on terminal,\ncurrent working directory, last command and background jobs.\n\n### Plugins configurations\n\n- [fast-syntax-highlighting: Feature-rich syntax highlighting](https://github.com/zdharma-continuum/fast-syntax-highlighting)\n- [zsh-autosuggestions: Fish-like autosuggestions](https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-autosuggestions)\n- [zsh-history-substring-search: 🐠 ZSH port of Fish history search ](https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-history-substring-search) with key bindings for emacs, vi -insert and normal modes.\n- [zsh-completions: Additional completion definitions for Zsh.](https://github.com/clarketm/zsh-completions)\n- [zsh-vi-mode: 💻 A better and friendly vi(vim) mode plugin for ZSH.](https://github.com/jeffreytse/zsh-vi-mode)\n- [command_help: Extract help text from builtin commands and man pages](https://github.com/learnbyexample/command_help)\n- more\n\n## Requirements\n\n- zsh, git\n\nRecommended:\n- [Nerd Fonts](https://www.nerdfonts.com/) - fonts with glyphs for Starship prompt and eza, etc.\n- [Advanced and fast Starship -prompt](https://starship.rs)\n- [eza: A modern alternative to ls](https://github.com/eza-community/eza) which is also recommended, fzf fuzzy finder, for Wayland desktop: wl-copy for clipboard operations.\n\nOptional:\n- [zoxide: A smarter cd command. Supports all major shells.](https://github.com/ajeetdsouza/zoxide)\n- curl - for scripts getting information from web.\n- [grc - generic colouriser](https://github.com/garabik/grc)\n- [ccze - a fast log colorizer](https://github.com/cornet/ccze)\n[cheat - allows you to create and view interactive cheatsheets on the command-line](https://github.com/cheat/cheat)\n- [navi: An interactive cheatsheet tool for the command-line](https://github.com/denisidoro/navi)\n- [tldr-pages/tldr-python-client: Python command-line client for tldr pages 📚](https://github.com/tldr-pages/tldr-python-client)\n- [translate-shell: Command-line translator using Google Translate, Bing Translator, Yandex.Translate, etc.](https://github.com/soimort/translate-shell)\n- [termdown: Countdown timer and stopwatch in your terminal](https://github.com/trehn/termdown)\n\n## Files\n\n- .zshenv - Tells Zsh where rest of the files are. In home directory should be a symlink with same the name to this file or a copy of it.\n- zprofile - Environment variables that can be used in Bash too.\n- zshrc - Main configuration file of which rest of configurations are sourced.\n- aliases.sh - Aliases and functions that can be used in Bash too.\n- bindings.zsh - Key bindings for Zsh line editor. *\n- completion.zsh - Completion settings. *\n- settings.zsh - General settings.\n- zsh-aliases.zsh - Zsh -specific aliases and functions.\n- zsh_plugins.txt - Used plugin specifications use by Antidote.\n\nAll .zsh-files directly under these directories are sourced from .zshrc during init.\n- snippets/ - Different snippets.\n  - titles.zsh - *\n  - *.sh - Snippets that can be sourced from Bash too.\n- completions/ - Additional locally added completions.\n- later/ - Local files which use deferred loading for speed.\n\n\u003e [!NOTE]\n\u003e `*` These are derived from Prezto modules. Changes can be seen in next section.\n\n## Installation\n\n1. Install requirements.\n2. Git clone this repo in ~/.config which makes sub-directory \"zsh\". Custom directory can also be used.\n3. If ~/.zshenv already exists backup by renaming it. Make a hidden symlink to home directory pointing zshenv -file:\n```\nln -s ~/.config/zsh/zshenv $HOME/.zshenv\n```\n or copy it:\n```\ncp ~/.config/zsh/zshenv $HOME/.zshenv\n```\n\n1. If using different directory for the config, change it in .zshenv accordingly.\n2. Start a new shell. If Zinit installation is not found, it is installed automatically\nand all defined external plugins and snippets are being pulled.\n\n### Forked Prezto modules\n\nFor license see [LICENSE -file](./LICENSE). Settings are changed directly in the file instead of .zpreztorc like in Prezto.\n\n#### bindings.zsh\n\n- Forked from Prezto editor -module.\n\nChanges, added:\n- Command to list bindings.\n- Bindings:\n- Toggle Vi / Emacs command mode.\n- cd to previous / next directory, ls\n- Support for some more common keys and shortcuts.\n\nRemoved:\n- Functions for prompts since prompt is defined as plugin instead in plugins/prompt.zsh\n- No definitions for plugins since deferred loading is used.\n- Some bindings I don't use.\n\n#### titles.zsh\n\n- Forked from terminal module in Prezto.\n\nChanges:\n- Added support for Yakuake and Konsole -terminals which set titles differently using qdbus.\n  - Spams messages to journalctl but works.\n- Fix: drop first word of title if it's sudo, su, ssh, mosh or rake.\n- Allow longer titles for Terminator -terminal which has wide tabs.\n\n#### completion.zsh\n\n- Forked from completion module in Prezto.\n\nChanges:\n- No LS_COLORS definition since I use fork of [LS_COLORS: A collection of LS_COLORS definitions; needs your contribution!](https://github.com/trapd00r/LS_COLORS) instead.\n- No compinit loading since it's done using Zinit when initializing syntax highlighting -plugin.\n- Mutt's path ~/.mutt -\u003e ~/.config/mutt\n- Use $ZSH_CACHE_DIR for caching.\n- Completion settings for more text editors, killall, Taskwarrior, Docker, Angular cli.\n- When new programs is installed, auto update autocomplete without reloading shell.\n\n## License\n\nSee [LICENSE -file](./LICENSE)\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fnkahe%2Fzsh","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fnkahe%2Fzsh","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fnkahe%2Fzsh/lists"}
