Set up your terminal

Oh My Posh uses ANSI color codes under the hood, these should work in every terminal, but you may have to set the environment variable $TERM to xterm-256color for it to work.

:::info To display all icons, we recommend the use of a Nerd Font. :::

Installation

:::info Before running the below commands, make sure that you have updated curl and the client certificate store on the target machine.

The installation script requires the following tools to be installed:

  • curl
  • unzip
  • realpath
  • dirname

:::

Install the latest version for your system by running the following command:

bash
curl -s https://ohmyposh.dev/install.sh | bash -s

By default the script will install to ~/bin or ~/.local/bin depending on which one exists, or the existing Oh My Posh executable's installation folder. If you want to install to a different location you can specify it using the -d flag:

bash
curl -s https://ohmyposh.dev/install.sh | bash -s -- -d ~/bin
