This gists contains my terminal setup on Ubuntu 16.04 which includes:

• ZSH
• Oh-my-zsh
• Terminator (optional, also work with gnome-terminal)
• Powerline symbols
• Mononoki font
• Solarized
• dircolors-solarized
• basic zshrc config including:
• agnoster theme
• default user (shortened prompt)
• zsh syntax highlighting
• autojump, git, colored-man-pages, web-search plugins and more...

Fonts (Mononoki, Powerline symbols)

mv PowerlineSymbols.otf ~/.fonts/

If ~/.config/fontconfig/conf.d does not exist already: mkdir -p ~/.config/fontconfig/conf.d

mv 10-powerline-symbols.conf ~/.config/fontconfig/conf.d/

Then install mononoki which is a very nice font.

wget https://github.com/madmalik/mononoki/releases/download/1.2/mononoki.zip

mkdir ~/.fonts/mononoki

unzip mononoki.zip -d ~/.fonts/mononoki/
