Customise Linux Terminal Here’s my terminal how look like

Hey folks! I am going to show you how to customise Linux Terminal

(1) Choose Theme For Terminal :

Here’s how you can change theme of terminal:

Pre-Install:

$ sudo apt-get install dconf-cli uuid-runtime

Install:

$ bash -c “$(wget -qO- https://git.io/vQgMr)”

Or, if you are a Mac user:

$ bash -c “((curl -sLo- https://git.io/vQgMr)”

Choose any theme you like it, Personally i like (aci) one, then enter theme number which one you like it for aci it’s (02)

Then go to preferences->profile->choose your preferred theme

(2) Change Font of Terminal :

To change font of terminal get ttf file of that particular font

for Mac monaco font try this one:

http://www.gringod.com/wp-upload/software/Fonts/Monaco_Linux.ttf

then execute that file.

Now to change font of terminal to monaco go to preferences->custom font->monaco

(3) Change color of user, host and directory :

You can edit the settings editing the file: ~/.bashrc.

1. Open the file: gedit ~/.bashrc.
2. Look for the line with #force_color_prompt=yes and uncomment (delete the #).
3. Look for the line below if [ “)color_prompt” = yes ]; then that should looks like:

PS1=’({debian_chroot:+()debian_chroot)}\[\033[1;31m\]\u@\h\[\033[00m\]:\[\033[01;34m\]\w\[\033[00m\]\$ ’

Pay attention at the part \u@\h it is saying “user@host” and the number before it \[\033[01;31m\] indicates the color. This is what you have to change. For example, lets change the user to purple, the “@” to black and host to green. Edit the line so it looks like:

PS1=’({debian_chroot:+()debian_chroot)}\[\033[01;35m\]\u\[\033[01;30m\]@\[\033[01;32m\]\h\[\033[00m\]:\[\033[01;34m\]\w\[\033[00m\]\$ ’

The colors numbers are:

Black 0;30 Dark Gray 1;30
Blue 0;34 Light Blue 1;34
Green 0;32 Light Green 1;32
Cyan 0;36 Light Cyan 1;36
Red 0;31 Light Red 1;31
Purple 0;35 Light Purple 1;35
Brown 0;33 Yellow 1;33
Light Gray 0;37 White 1;37

Now play with color code and change accordingly.

Voila! It’s Done..
