|
|
|
Simply clone this repository and source the script:
|
2015-11-24 02:05:41 -05:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
git clone git://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-syntax-highlighting.git
|

|
|
|
|
source ~/.zshrc

|
|
|
|

|
|
|
development tree from:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-syntax-highlighting/archive/master.tar.gz
|
|
|
|
|

### With oh-my-zsh
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Oh-my-zsh is a zsh configuration framework. It lives at
|
|
|
|
<http://github.com/robbyrussell/oh-my-zsh>.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To install zsh-syntax-highlighting under oh-my-zsh:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Clone this repository in oh-my-zsh's plugins directory:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
git clone git://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-syntax-highlighting.git ~/.oh-my-zsh/custom/plugins/zsh-syntax-highlighting
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. Activate the plugin in `~/.zshrc`:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
plugins=( [plugins...] zsh-syntax-highlighting)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
3. Source `~/.zshrc` to take changes into account:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
source ~/.zshrc
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note that `zsh-syntax-highlighting` must be the last plugin sourced,
|
|
|
|
so make it the last element of the `$plugins` array.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### System-wide installation
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Either of the above methods is suitable for a single-user installation,
|
|
|
|
which requires no special privileges. If, however, you desire to install
|
|
|
|
zsh-syntax-highlighting system-wide, you may do so by running `make install`
|
|
|
|
and directing your users to add
|
|
|
|
`source /usr/local/share/zsh-syntax-highlighting/zsh-syntax-highlighting.zsh`
|
|
|
|
in their `.zshrc`s.
