This ZSH theme is based heavily on an excellent blog entry from Phil Gold. In his blog entry Phil explains detailed how his ZSH theme is working and I can only strongly recommend it to everyone who wants to modify or even generate a new ZSH theme.
This ZSH theme has the following features (from left to right and from top to bottom):
- Indication of user, hostname & terminal. Enhanced visual indication if the user is root.
- Git branch and status.
- Activated Python virtual environment.
- Current Ruby interpreter (not shown in the screenshot).
- Current working directory.
- Visual indication of the shell return value.
- Numeric indication of the shell return value.
- Status of the power management.
- Time and date.
Put aperiodic.zsh-theme in your ~/.oh-my-zsh/custom/themes directory, then in your ~/.zshrc file:
ZSH_THEME="aperiodic"
