    You can change the specific color shades to something nicer, but keep the color mapping the same (1=red, 2=green etc.), just like most of these themes: https://github.com/lysyi3m/macos-terminal-themes

  • "ls: .: Operation not permitted" in ~/Downloads after downloading colour schemes
    2 projects | /r/MacOS | 14 Oct 2021
    Now, I've downloaded a load of colorschemes(https://github.com/lysyi3m/macos-terminal-themes), they were in my ~/Downloads first but I've sinced moved the whole master folder to ~. The instructions are to go into themes and open any Example.terminal file, which opens a terminal window with those colours, then go to "Shell" > "Use settings as default". When I do this, or even if I don't do this, I'm not allowed to use the ls command from the ~/Downloads directory at all.

  • How to customize the Terminal?

    If you want to reverse the colors so the text is white with a black background (like in a lot of Linux distros) you can press cmd , to open the preferences then select I believe it is called the pro theme and then click on make default. I use the Homebrew theme which is green on black (because it reminds me of my first Linux computer (a raspi 3b)). Though GitHub has a ton of color schemes https://github.com/lysyi3m/macos-terminal-themes I believe you just open the file and it installs to terminal and you can enable it be same way I said earlier.

    You can play around with the colours in the Terminal Profiles yourself but I would suggest going with a pre-made theme because they will have considered the constrast and readability of the colours in different scenarios. Here's a list of cool MacOS Terminal Themes.
  • What Terminal Emulator is this?

    hah. stay away from r/unixporn. change can be good though. people always like to look at something new, different, and flashy. try a different font? my favorite is Input, with Nerd Font glyphs applied. Look for a new theme, i personally use material-dark. and then you can spend hours tweaking a prompt. powerline10k is my go-to prompt-construction-set.
  • What colours do you use for Terminal and why?
    1 project | /r/osx | 24 Jan 2021
    Any colors that suit you. I think dark background is better for your eyes. Your can try more color schemes here. You can use iTerms2 as an alternative to default terminal
