2. Configuration

You can find ptSh configuration file in ~/.config/ptSh/config.

Escape codes

You can set colors and text decorations with ANSI escape codes. Every escape code has some effect (foreground color, background color, underline, blinking etc.). You can list all escape codes and see their effects with this script:

for (( i=0; i<108; i++)) do
    echo -ne "\033[${i}m${i}\033[00m "
done
echo -e "\033[0m"

Correct ways to specify escape codes in config are \x1B[Ym and \033[Ym, where Y is escape code number (this from script output), e.g.:

DIR_NAME_ESCAPE_CODES='\x1B[35m'          #sets foreground color of directory name to magneta
FILE_NAME_ESCAPE_CODES='\x1B[4m'          #sets underline for file names
LINK_NAME_ESCAPE_CODES='\x1B[5m\x1B[42m'  #makes hyperlink name blinking and green background color

Restoring default configuration

Config file with default configuration is in /usr/share/ptSh/config. To restore defaults, replace your config file with it:

rm ~/.config/ptSh/config
cp /usr/share/ptSh/config ~/.config/ptSh/config

Do not edit default configuration file
