Attention: This is DEPRECATED in favor of PowerLevel10K, I wrote an article about it:

• Change default shell on Arch Linux

Install oh-my-zsh with powerlevel9k theme on Arch Linux

This gist aims to facilitate the switching from bash to zsh as our defaut shell. We will be using oh-my-zsh with the powerful theme: Powerlevel9k. You will find all the links below. This process applies mainly for Arch Linux, but can be setup for any other distro (in theory :)). I'm also using Gnome Terminal and pacaur as package manager.

cd /root
yum install wget       (you can skip this step if wget is already installed)
wget https://assets.ubuntu.com/v1/fad7939b-ubuntu-font-family-0.83.zip (check the newest version)

2 - Check if the directory /usr/share/fonts exist. If the fonts directory do not exist,you can create yourself.
