Colors and Font Settings

Here are some suggested settings you can change or set, they are all optional.

  • Download Solarized Light and then set these to your default profile colors
  • Change the font to 14pt Meslo for Powerline. Source Code Pro can be downloaded here.
  • If you're using BASH instead of ZSH you can add export CLICOLOR=1 line to your ~/.bash_profile file for nice coloring of listings
