Spaceduck terminal theme 🚀🦆

A intergalactic space theme for your terminal! This is the spaceduck repo for terminal themes. If you're looking for other applications here's the link to the spaceduck home.

Color Disclaimer:

I've personally swapped the yellow and purple colors in most terminal themes. This is a personal preference as I've found it to render the colorscheme how I like since Spaceduck is dark purple oriented. Feel free to change the colorscheme locally to be more semantically correct! I'm open to change the repo here if any bugs are found however. Take a look at this thread to see the visual differences at this change.

Iterm2

To get the theme into Iterm, download the spaceduck.itermcolors file and import it into your settings.

Terminal.app MacOS

st

The color theme for st is located in spaceduck.h, open config.h (usually in ~/.local/src/st), search for static const char *colorname, delete that part of the configuration until unsigned int defaultcs = 257; replace that with the content of spaceduck.h, save the file and exit your editor, then run sudo make install where st is located to recompile it, close the terminal and launch the terminal again and voila!, you should have spaceduck up and running!

Tmux

You can go ahead and check out readme for tmux here.

But if you're too lazy to click the link you can put this in your tmux.conf for an easy spaceduck themed bottom bar:

  # Basic color support setting
  set-option -g default-terminal "screen-256color"

  # Default bar color
  set-option -g status-style bg='#1b1c36',fg='#ecf0c1'

  # Active Pane
  set -g pane-active-border-style "fg=#5ccc96"

  # Inactive Pane
  set -g pane-border-style "fg=#686f9a"

  # Active window
  set-option -g window-status-current-style bg='#686f9a',fg='#ffffff'

  # Message
  set-option -g message-style bg='#686f9a',fg='#ecf0c1'
  set-option -g message-command-style bg='#686f9a',fg='#ecf0c1'

  # When Commands are run
  set -g message-style "fg=#0f111b,bg=#686f9a"

Konsole

Copy spaceduck.colorscheme to the .local/share/konsole/. After that run konsoleprofile colors="spaceduck" OR in Konsole's settings navigate to Configure Konsole... > Profiles > Select your active profile e.g. Shell (Default) > Edit... > Appearence > Find and select SpaceDuck in the Color scheme & font > Press Apply.

Termux

Copy spaceduck.properties file to the ~/.termux/ and rename it to colors.properties. After that exit Termux's session and launch it again. Note: if you have Termux:Styling plugin installed - changing color scheme with it will overwrite colors.properties file with selected theme.

Xresources

Copy the settings from spaceduck.xresources to your ~/.Xresources file, or you can include it from a separate file with #include "path/to/spaceduck.xresources", just be sure to specify the directory that the file is located in to xrdb with xrdb -I$HOME ~/.Xresources.
