.tmux.conf	tmux config with TPM and onedark theme
.conkyrc	Conky system monitor config

Terminal setup

These dotfiles assume Terminator as terminal emulator and tmux as multiplexer, with the tmux-onedark-theme plugin. Two things need to be configured for the theme to render correctly.

1. True Color in Terminator

Terminator doesn't enable true color by default. Edit ~/.config/terminator/config and add the environment line inside [[default]]:

[profiles]
  [[default]]
    environment = COLORTERM=truecolor

Restart Terminator and verify with:

echo $COLORTERM   # should print: truecolor

2. Nerd Fonts

The theme uses Powerline/Nerd Font symbols for the status bar separators. Without the right font they render as garbage characters.

Install JetBrainsMono Nerd Font:

mkdir -p ~/.local/share/fonts
wget https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts/releases/latest/download/JetBrainsMono.zip
unzip JetBrainsMono.zip -d ~/.local/share/fonts/JetBrainsMono
fc-cache -fv

Then set the font in Terminator: right click → Preferences → Profiles → General → Font → JetBrainsMono Nerd Font Mono (the Mono variant).

Verify the symbols render correctly:

echo "\ue0b0 \ue0b2"   # should show two arrow shapes

tmux config

The .tmux.conf uses TPM to manage plugins. On a fresh install, after cloning run:

# Install TPM
git clone https://github.com/tmux-plugins/tpm ~/.tmux/plugins/tpm

# Reload config and install plugins
tmux source-file ~/.tmux.conf
# then inside tmux: prefix + I
