### In your ~/.zshrc
Simply clone this repository and source the script:
git clone https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-syntax-highlighting.git
echo "source ${(q-)PWD}/zsh-syntax-highlighting/zsh-syntax-highlighting.zsh" >> ${ZDOTDIR:-$HOME}/.zshrc
Then, enable syntax highlighting in the current interactive shell:
source ./zsh-syntax-highlighting/zsh-syntax-highlighting.zsh
If `git` is not installed, download and extract a snapshot of the latest
development tree from:
https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-syntax-highlighting/archive/master.tar.gz
Note the `source` command must be **at the end** of `~/.zshrc`.
### With a plugin manager
Note that `zsh-syntax-highlighting` must be the last plugin sourced.
The zsh-syntax-highlighting authors recommend manual installation over the use
of a framework or plugin manager.
This list is incomplete as there are too many [frameworks / plugin managers]
(https://github.com/unixorn/awesome-zsh-plugins#frameworks) to list them all
here.
#### [Antigen](https://github.com/zsh-users/antigen)
Add `antigen bundle zsh-users/zsh-syntax-highlighting` as the last bundle in
your `.zshrc`.
#### [Oh-my-zsh](https://github.com/robbyrussell/oh-my-zsh)
1. Clone this repository in oh-my-zsh's plugins directory:
git clone https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-syntax-highlighting.git ${ZSH_CUSTOM:-~/.oh-my-zsh/custom}/plugins/zsh-syntax-highlighting
2. Activate the plugin in `~/.zshrc`:
plugins=( [plugins...] zsh-syntax-highlighting)
3. Source `~/.zshrc` to take changes into account:
source ~/.zshrc
#### [Prezto](https://github.com/sorin-ionescu/prezto)
Zsh-syntax-highlighting is included with Prezto. See the [Prezto documentation]
(https://github.com/sorin-ionescu/prezto/tree/master/modules/syntax-highlighting)
to enable and configure highlighters.
#### [zgen](https://github.com/tarjoilija/zgen)
Add `zgen load zsh-users/zsh-syntax-highlighting` to the end of your `.zshrc`.
#### [zplug](https://github.com/zplug/zplug)
Add `zplug "zsh-users/zsh-syntax-highlighting", defer:2` to your `.zshrc`.
#### [zplugin](https://github.com/psprint/zplugin)
Add `zplugin load zsh-users/zsh-syntax-highlighting` to the end of your
`.zshrc`.
### System-wide installation
Any of the above methods is suitable for a single-user installation,
which requires no special privileges. If, however, you desire to install
zsh-syntax-highlighting system-wide, you may do so by running
make install
and directing your users to add
source /usr/local/share/zsh-syntax-highlighting/zsh-syntax-highlighting.zsh
to their `.zshrc`s.
