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.

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

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:

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

Now that Oh My Posh is installed, you can go ahead and configure your terminal and shell to get the prompt to look exactly like you want.
