Termux-ZSH

What it does

• Installs zsh and sets it as default shell.
• Installs OhMyZsh framework for plugins and themes.
• Installs customized powerlevel10k theme and sets JetBrains Mono Nerd font as default.
• Added color scheme and font changer scripts in ~/.termux/ directory to change color schemes and fonts in termux easily.
• Installs syntax highlighter and autosuggestion plugins (from zsh-users).
• Enabled plugins by default alias-finder command-not-found git node npm zsh-autosuggestions zsh-syntax-highlighting, to check their usage and more available plugins Go Here
• Installs and sets up lf (Terminal file manager), press Ctrl + O to execute lf in current directory (NOTE, last directory location is preserved in current session on quiting lf, so the directory you were in when you quit lf becomes your current terminal directory, if you don't want this for some reason just search for bindkey -s "^o" "lfcd\C-m" in ~/.zshrc file and just change lfcd to lf in there).
• Added command edit function, press Ctrl + E to edit any command in micro text editor, you can change it to whatever text editor you prefer in ~/.zshrc file here export VISUAL="micro".

Notes

• Termux from playstore is no longer updated, install termux from f-droid or from their github releases instead.
• To run commands in termux from other apps or open it in a directory with a filemanager (Mixplorer for example) give it App on top or draw over other apps permission and uncomment allow-external-apps and make sure it's set to true in ~/.termux/termux.properties, However keep in mind that any app that supports this functionality can then automatically execute commands in termux so its very unsafe and should be only set to true when necessary.
• You can set custom aliases or override any alias you want by setting them in OhMyZsh/custom_aliases.zsh before installing termux-zsh, or in ~/.oh-my-zsh/custom/custom_aliases.zsh after installing it.
• By default all commit aliases of git plugin now use verbose flags for some reason, that ends up inserting huge verbose diff in commit message, if you don't want that behaviour for any git commit aliases you can re set them as specified in above note in the custom_aliases.zsh file, im overriding gc alias in there by default to remove the verbose flag, you can use that as example and set yours in that file, you need to reload (omz reload) or restart termux after setting them.
• You can use color-changer alias to change color scheme and font-changer alias to change font easily.
• Checkout OhMyZsh Cheatsheet for some quick usefull tricks.
• Checkout OhMyZsh Wiki to see how to customize it, add plugins and themes.
• Checkout lf-basics to learn how to use the lf file manager and customize it.
