Installing

Zgenom

Add zgenom load unixorn/warhol.plugin.zsh to your .zshrc with your other load commands.

Antigen

Add antigen bundle unixorn/warhol.plugin.zsh to your .zshrc

Oh-My-Zsh

If you're using oh-my-zsh:

1. In the command line, change to oh-my-zsh's custom plugin directory :

   cd ~/.oh-my-zsh/custom/plugins/

2. Clone the repository into a new warhol directory in your custom plugins:

   git clone https://github.com/unixorn/warhol.plugin.zsh.git warhol

3. Edit your ~/.zshrc and add warhol.plugin.zsh – same as clone directory – to the list of plugins to enable:

   plugins=( ... warhol )

4. Then, restart your terminal application to refresh context and use the plugin. Alternatively, you can source your current shell configuration:

   source ~/.zshrc

Without using any frameworks

1. git clone [email protected]:unixorn/warhol.plugin.zsh.git
2. Add its bin directory to your $PATH. If you're using ZSH, you can just add source /path/to/clone/of/warhol.plugin.zsh to your .zshrc file.

The scripts in here don't actually require you to be using ZSH as your login shell, they're being distributed as a ZSH plugin because that's convenient.

Tips

Customizing LSCOLORS for macOS/BSD and LS_COLORS for Linux is a hassle. It's even more of a hassle to keep them in sync across macOS/BSD and Linux.

Fortunately, Geoff Greer made an online tool that makes it easy to customize your color scheme and keep them in sync across Linux and OS X/*BSD available online at lscolors.

I've included my LSCOLORS and LS_COLORS settings in this plugin, but they won't be applied if you already have set LSCOLORS or LS_COLORS.

The easiest way to change them if you use a ZSH framework is to redeclare the variables in your .zshrc after your framework loads your plugins.
