further explanation
List
- This lists all available themes in the default OMP Path.
- Additionally the themes in WindowsPowerShell\ompthemes, that get created by using
--add-newtheme.
> For easier usage and overview, the themes get trimmed of thier file extension before listing.
command alias: -ls
otc --list-themes
Update
- This will update OMP using winget.
- As well as sync the themes again with thier Github, making sure all changes get applied.
command alias: -u
otc --update-omp
Choose
- In this example, we select the theme "amro" to be our new theme.
- This will overwrite the file named "custom.*" with the amro theme, thus selecting it as current theme.
- Other than isolating added and default themes, this means in the PowerShellProfile, only the file named "custom" has to be imported as theme.
> Don't include file extensions when choosing as well. This will also choose from the newly created themes.
command alias: -ch
otc --choose-theme amro
Add New
- The first example creates a new theme called "amroedit" from the
current theme.
- The second example, creates a theme called "test" and includes a path to the theme.
> As mentioned before, the themes get saved to WindowsPowerShell\ompthemes
command alias: -a
otc --add-newtheme amroedit
or
otc --add-newtheme test "path\to\themefile.extension"
