for the basics, since I'm on an M2 Mac, I use:
- iTerm2: Terminal
- zsh with zsh-completions, zsh-autosuggestions, and zsh-syntax-highlighting: Shell, Shell Completions, Shell Autosuggestion, and Shell Syntax Highlighting
- oh-my-zsh: Shell Configuration Extension
- passion: Prompt Style Theme & Default Profile Terminal Colors
- Homebrew: Package Manager
- Fira Code: Terminal Font
and extending my workflow in the terminal, I use:
- tmux with tpm: Terminal Multiplexer and Plugin Manager
- neovim with lazy.nvim and mason.nvim: Editor, Editor Package Manager, and LSP Package Manager
my default terminal profile ends up looking like this after customization (i don't remember if inline is still disabled):
Show
and my programming terminal profile ends up looking like this after customization:
Show
and I really like the look of this one in particular in the end
so, what's your terminal/shell stack?
edit: here's my neofetch:
Show
bash, gnome-terminal, monospace 👶
I also use Emacs
Of course, this is all running on Gentoo, where I have made many tweaks which deviate from the default to balance the needs of CAD/CAM, 3D printing, virtual machines, containers, video game emulation, WINE, ham radio, astronomy, various niches of software development, etc. I go through all of that and still run the most normiecore desktop environment. The 6TB volume is a hybrid which uses LVM to use a 1TB NVMe drive as a writethrough cache for a 6TB spinning drive, and the CPU is overclocked to 4.3GHz from 3.5.
A while ago I used to be big into Herbstluftwm and used urxvtd as a terminal emulator, but I have migrated to Wayland and all of that shit is exclusively designed for X11.
