Simplex — a set of Liquid Prompt Themes

Simplex is a set of 2 themes for Liquid Prompt.

These are custom design themes I wanted to create and did so for my own uses.

Preview

simplex_tty is a theme specifically designed for simpler terminals, and even has backwards support for tty consoles.

simplex_bar is a theme designed in the idea of powerline, but with my purpley colored bar concept.

Install

Just download this repository somewhere, source the chosen theme file and activate it, all from your shell configuration file.

For example (just use ~/.zshrc instead of ~/.bashrc, if you use Zsh and not Bash):

git clone https://github.com/erenfro/lp-simplex.git
echo '# Use Liquid Prompt only if in an interactive shell
    if [[ $- == *i* ]]; then
        # Use Liquid Prompt
        source ~/.liquidprompt
        # Select the right file below, depending on the theme you want:
        if [[ -f ~/lp-simplex/simplex_tty.theme ]] ; then
            source ~/lp-simplex/simplex_tty.theme && lp_theme simplex_tty
        fi
    fi' >> ~/.bashrc

zim

Add the following to your zimrc:

zmodule liquidprompt/liquidprompt
zmodule https://git.linux-help.org/psi-jack/lp-simplex.git --source simplex_tty.theme --cmd 'lp_theme simplex_tty'

Restart your shell, then:

zimfw install

Rationale

I simply wanted a functional, purple colored shell prompt that both looked nice and had basic functionality I wanted. VCS support, runtime detection, exit-code detection, and nice.
