Platformio-atom-ide-terminal: Change the user@host:dir colors

Created on 5 Mar 2020  路  4Comments  路  Source: platformio/platformio-atom-ide-terminal

Hi!
Recently I started using atom and I really love platformio-atom-ide-terminal.
However, the terminal is monochromatic and it is kind of difficult to find the beginning of the line when we have a long output.

I was wondering if there is any way to change only the "user@host:dir" colors in the terminal? Similar to Ubuntu.

Thank you!

This is a path issue of sorts, your workaround would _likely_ not be needed if you have it in ~/.bash_profile

You are right, it's a way better solution than mine, thank you ;)

In any case you'd be better served with terminus its a fork of this project which also is in JavaScript instead of CoffeeScript.

I will try it out then.

Thank you again for your help!

We would need to know what OS, the terminal in use, like powershelll, cmd, bash, git bash, wsl bash and so on.

Also Try https://github.com/bus-stop/terminus, this project is no longer developed

I am currently using Ubuntu 18.04 and I use bash.

I eventually manage to change the colors by putting the following command in the the section "Auto Run Command" in Options.
PS1="\[\e[32;1m\]\[\e]0;\u@\h: \w\a\]${debian_chroot:+($debian_chroot)}\u@\h:\w\$\[\e[m\] " ; tput reset

It's not the perfect solution, but it works just fine.
