### In your ~/.zshrc
|
|
|
|
|
2015-11-26 13:07:41 -05:00
|
|
|
Simply clone this repository and source the script:
|
2015-11-24 02:05:41 -05:00
|
|
|
|
2016-02-17 13:22:54 -05:00
|
|
|
git clone https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-syntax-highlighting.git
|
2016-05-12 09:29:10 -04:00
|
|
|
echo "source ${(q-)PWD}/zsh-syntax-highlighting/zsh-syntax-highlighting.zsh" >> ${ZDOTDIR:-$HOME}/.zshrc
|
2016-05-12 09:25:59 -04:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Then, enable syntax highlighting in the current interactive shell:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
source ./zsh-syntax-highlighting/zsh-syntax-highlighting.zsh
|
2015-11-24 02:05:41 -05:00
|
|
|
|
2015-11-26 13:07:41 -05:00
|
|
|
If `git` is not installed, download and extract a snapshot of the latest
|
2015-11-24 02:05:41 -05:00
|
|
|
development tree from:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-syntax-highlighting/archive/master.tar.gz
|
|
|
|
|
2015-11-26 13:07:41 -05:00
|
|
|
Note the `source` command must be **at the end** of `~/.zshrc`.
|

|
|
|
### With a plugin manager
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note that `zsh-syntax-highlighting` must be the last plugin sourced.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The zsh-syntax-highlighting authors recommend manual installation over the use
|
|
|
|
of a framework or plugin manager.
|
2015-11-24 02:05:41 -05:00
|
|
|
|
2016-05-05 19:02:51 -04:00
|
|
|
This list is incomplete as there are too many [frameworks / plugin managers]
|
|
|
|
(https://github.com/unixorn/awesome-zsh-plugins#frameworks) to list them all
|
|
|
|
here.

### System-wide installation
|
|
|
|
|
2016-05-05 19:02:51 -04:00
|
|
|
Any of the above methods is suitable for a single-user installation,
|
2015-11-24 02:05:41 -05:00
|
|
|
which requires no special privileges. If, however, you desire to install
|
2015-11-26 13:09:43 -05:00
|
|
|
zsh-syntax-highlighting system-wide, you may do so by running
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
make install
|
|
|
|
|
2015-11-24 02:05:41 -05:00
|
|
|
and directing your users to add
|
2015-11-26 13:09:43 -05:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
source /usr/local/share/zsh-syntax-highlighting/zsh-syntax-highlighting.zsh
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
to their `.zshrc`s.
