Hi, I’ve installed Manjaro KDE to another PC and it turns out, that bash (in yakutake and konsole) has nice new funkcionality (autocomplete from history, coloring texts etc.), but on my old PC bash don’t do that.
I would like to know how a can install it to my old system?
Hello and welcome to the Forum!
Basically, Manjaro uses zsh not bash.
Funny enough, I asked the same question a while ago.
Along with zsh I would recommend you install p10k too, it makes customization much easier.
This is my setup:
Konsole is using profiles (other terminals may do to) and when logged in using TTY suggesting to set it as default shell is usually a preemptive strike against confusion
Yes it does - and normally this is the only step needed.
Hi, thank all for your help, but it isn’t working :(. I’ll have to compare differences in both computers - I think that there must be some additional changes made.
I’m sorry, but I don’t understand what you mean by “flags”
Can you post a screenshot or an example from the terminal?
If you mean “syntax highlighting” then you must install the zsh-syntax-highlighting package:
I already have installed zsh-autosuggestions, zsh-syntax-highlighting, zsh-history-substring-search, zsh-autosugggestions, zsh and zsh-theme-powerlevel10k.
Flags I mean icons on the end of the line. But it isn’t matter, sadly somewhy it is not working at all.
Because you are retrofitting onto an existing installation - you need to verify your ~/.zshrc file - or copy the file from /etc/skel/.zshrc
$ cat .zshrc
# Use powerline
USE_POWERLINE="true"
# Source manjaro-zsh-configuration
if [[ -e /usr/share/zsh/manjaro-zsh-config ]]; then
source /usr/share/zsh/manjaro-zsh-config
fi
# Use manjaro zsh prompt
if [[ -e /usr/share/zsh/manjaro-zsh-prompt ]]; then
source /usr/share/zsh/manjaro-zsh-prompt
fi
If you want you’re own custom config, then read the powerlevel 10k installation guide for easy customization.
And the installation guides for the other packages.
