Sets following useful aliases and ohmyzsh plugins. You can add more or overwrite these in your personal zsh config files under ~/.config/ezsh/zshrc/
- l="ls -lah" - just type "l" instead of "ls -lah"
- alias k="k -h" - show human readable filesizes, in kb, mb etc
- e="exit"
- a='eza -la --git --colour-scale all -g --smart-group --icons always' - eza is the new ls

- cheat - (https://github.com/chubin/cheat.sh) - cheatsheets in the terminal!
- speedtest - (curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sivel/speedtest-cli/master/speedtest.py | python3 -) run speedtest on the fly
- dadjoke - (curl https://icanhazdadjoke.com) - terminally sick jokes

Command prompt looks like this (easily customize it by placing your configs in ~/.config/ezsh/zshrc/)
OS : directory : git stats : last command exit code & time taken : free RAM : time
Watch this to get an idea of what your Shell (life) could be like!
Requirements:
gitto clone it.python3orpythonis required to run option '-c' which copies history from .bash_history
git clone https://github.com/jotyGill/ezsh
cd ezsh
./install.sh -c # only run with '-c' the first time, running multiple times will duplicate history entriesThis will install the setup under ~/.config/ezsh/
Change your terminal's fonts to either "RobotoMono Nerd Font" or "Hack Nerd Font" or "DejaVu Sans Mono Nerd Fonts".
You can also manually install Nerd Fonts of your choice.
-
Make sure to use any terminal besides QTerminal (default one in kali-xfce), here back space doesn't work for some reason (alt+back does). I recommend xfce4-terminal for Kali
-
If you are already using zsh, your zsh config will be backed up to .zshrc-backup-date
-
If the text/icons look broken, make sure your terminal is using one of the Nerd fonts. discussion. I recommend "RobotoMono Nerd Font"
-
marker's shortcut "Ctr+t" clashed with fzf so I rebound it to "Ctr +b"
-
All oh-my-zsh plugins are installed under ~/.config/ezsh/oh-my-zsh/plugin, Other tools (fzf,marker,todo) are installed in ~/.config/ezsh/
-
If you use Marker, disable zsh-autosuggestions as it has a conflict with Marker (completion looks ugly). Add
plugins=(${plugins:#(zsh-autosuggestions)})into your personal config file to remove it -
The look of the shell can be very easily customised[https://github.com/bhilburn/powerlevel9k#prompt-customization] by overwriting POWERLEVEL10K settings in your personal config file under ~/.config/ezsh/zshrc/ . See example setup under example/personal_rc.zsh
Suggestions about more cool tools are always welcome :)
To uninstall simply delete ~/.zshrc and ~/.config/ezsh/. The script creates a backup of your original .zshrc in the home folder with the filename indicating it's a backup. Rename it back to .zshrc
