Installation

Manual (Git Clone)

1. Clone this repository somewhere on your machine. This guide will assume ~/.zsh/zsh-autosuggestions.

   git clone https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-autosuggestions ~/.zsh/zsh-autosuggestions
   

2. Add the following to your .zshrc:

   source ~/.zsh/zsh-autosuggestions/zsh-autosuggestions.zsh
   

3. Start a new terminal session.

Antigen

1. Add the following to your .zshrc:

   antigen bundle zsh-users/zsh-autosuggestions
   

2. Start a new terminal session.

Oh My Zsh

1. Clone this repository into $ZSH_CUSTOM/plugins (by default ~/.oh-my-zsh/custom/plugins)

   git clone https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-autosuggestions ${ZSH_CUSTOM:-~/.oh-my-zsh/custom}/plugins/zsh-autosuggestions
   

2. Add the plugin to the list of plugins for Oh My Zsh to load (inside ~/.zshrc):

   plugins=(zsh-autosuggestions)
   

3. Start a new terminal session.

Arch Linux

1. Install zsh-autosuggestions from the community repository.

   pacman -S zsh-autosuggestions
   

   or, to use a package based on the master branch, install zsh-autosuggestions-git from the AUR.

2. Add the following to your .zshrc:

   source /usr/share/zsh/plugins/zsh-autosuggestions/zsh-autosuggestions.zsh
   

3. Start a new terminal session.

macOS via Homebrew

1. Install the zsh-autosuggestions package using Homebrew.

   brew install zsh-autosuggestions
   

2. Add the following to your .zshrc:

   source /usr/local/share/zsh-autosuggestions/zsh-autosuggestions.zsh
   

3. Start a new terminal session.

Syntax highlighting

brew install zsh-syntax-highlighting

If you do not have or do not like homebrew, follow the installation instructions instead.

After installation, add the following line

source /usr/local/share/zsh-syntax-highlighting/zsh-syntax-highlighting.zsh

to the end of your .zshrc file. After that, it's best to restart your terminal. Sourcing your ~/.zshrc does not seem to work well with this plugin.
