oh-my-zsh

Install oh-my-zsh and some useful plugins

# Install oh-my-zsh
sh -c "$(wget -O- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ohmyzsh/ohmyzsh/master/tools/install.sh)"

# zsh-syntax-highlighting
git clone https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-syntax-highlighting.git ${ZSH_CUSTOM:-~/.oh-my-zsh/custom}/plugins/zsh-syntax-highlighting

# zsh-autosuggestions
git clone https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-autosuggestions ${ZSH_CUSTOM:-~/.oh-my-zsh/custom}/plugins/zsh-autosuggestions

# zsh-Z
git clone https://github.com/agkozak/zsh-z $ZSH_CUSTOM/plugins/zsh-z

# fzf
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/junegunn/fzf.git ~/.fzf
yes | ~/.fzf/install
pamac install fd

# autoupdate-oh-my-zsh-plugins
git clone https://github.com/TamCore/autoupdate-oh-my-zsh-plugins $ZSH_CUSTOM/plugins/autoupdate

chsh -s $(which zsh)

Additional step for fzf: Add the following lines at the end of .zshrc

export FZF_DEFAULT_COMMAND='fdfind --type f'
export FZF_DEFAULT_OPTS="--layout=reverse --inline-info --height=80%"

In .zshrc, set

plugins=(  
    fzf 
    git 
    history-substring-search 
    colored-man-pages 
    zsh-autosuggestions 
    zsh-syntax-highlighting 
    zsh-z 
    autoupdate 
)

zstyle ':omz:update' mode auto # This line exists in .zshrc as a default comment.

In .zshrc, set the following

export DISABLE_UPDATE_PROMPT="true"
export UPDATE_ZSH_DAYS=1
export ZSH_CUSTOM_AUTOUPDATE_NUM_WORKERS=8

Use upgrade_oh_my_zsh_all to update both oh-my-zsh and custom plugins.
