Updates

6/2/2020 - Please read the important notes! If you cloned/downloaded before 6/2/2020, I have updated this repository. Instead of using hyper-init to run commands, I just put them in .bash_profile

Important Notes

• The terminal I use is called Hyper
• If you just want the Python script that displays the word, just look at vocab.py. If you're interested in the Hyper configuration or Bash stuff, keep reading
• I made this on Mac running Bash terminal
• The new macOS Catalina uses Zsh instead of Bash, but I switched back to Bash using Hyper (in the config file, it is on line 108). Please change this accordingly as there are instructions in the file
• On macOS Catalina, switching back to Bash gives an ugly message everytime a new terminal window opens, so I configured .bash_profile to remove the message. If you never got the message in the first place, you can remove lines 1-3 on the .bash_profile
• The code in .bash_profile is commented. Please look thru and make changes if needed (change the path on the 'vocab' command in the .bash_profile according to where you clone/download)
• On lines 155-157 of the .hyper.js file, those are the plugins I prefer.
• On lines 158-161 of the .hyper.js file, I left cool plugins for you guys to check out
