My shell setup

This is a repository with things I want/need to setup my shell.

My setup consists of:

• Windows terminal with powershell 7 (pwsh) on Windows 11
• Bash in ubuntu on WSL

Prerequisites

The scripts in this repo takes care of most of the setup but some things need to be installed manually beforehand:

• Windows Terminal (should come pre-installed on Windows 11)
• Powershell 7 (can be installed with winget)
• WSL

Components

oh-my-posh

My profile for oh-my-posh is like a mix between emodipt and negligible with some minor updates and this is what it looks like on Windows 11. In Wsl it would say WSL instead of W11.

Fonts

Has a zip-file that contains Meslo LG M Regular nerd fonts, as well as scripts to install them for both windows 10/11 and ubuntu

Git magic

Provides convenience functions/aliases for git for both bash and powershell, complete with git autocomplete where applicable.

Installation

Set up can be done quite easily by running the scripts. After running the scripts the terminal environments expect things to be in the paths specified, so if you move anything around you might need to manually remove stuff from your profiles and run the setup scripts again.

Windows

1. Run ./install.ps1
2. Run ./setup.ps1
3. Add the following to the defaults section of the settings.json in Windows Terminal:

"fontFace": "MesloLGM NF",
"colorScheme": "One Half Dark",
"suppressApplicationTitle": true

Ubuntu/WSL

1. Run sudo ./install.sh
2. Run ./setup.sh

There might be additional setup needed in pure ubuntu to get the terminal to show the right font. For the Ubuntu setup these scripts have only been run in WSL and displayed in the Windows Terminal.
