# How to Install
|
|
|
|
1. Make sure you have [Python 3.5](https://www.python.org/downloads/mac-osx/) or higher.
|
|
2. Make sure you have [iTerm2](http://www.iterm2.com/downloads.html). If you have homebrew you can install iTerm with the following command:
|
|
```
|
|
brew cask install iterm2
|
|
```
|
|
3. Download the repository and unzip it.
|
|
4. Locate ~/.bash_profile and add the path to the repository so that it may be accessed from anywhere. Example:
|
|
```
|
|
# Pokemon
|
|
PATH="/Users/Laki/GitHub/Pokemon-Terminal:${PATH}"
|
|
```
|
|
5. Reload ~/.bash_profile so that the above changes are updated:
|
|
```
|
|
$ source ~/.bash_profile
|
|
```
|
|
6. Now you can change the terminal background like so:
|
|
```
|
|
$ pokemon pikachu
|
|
```
|
|
|
|

# Suggestions
|
|
|
|
I highly suggest making the font colors black and the terminal window transparent. Some of the images have both light and dark colours and so it can be difficult to see the font sometimes. Transparency resolves this issue. Since *Pokemon Terminal* only changes the background, the transparency must be done manually:
|
|
|
|
1. Navigate to iTerm2 > Preferences > Profiles > Window
|
|
2. Set the transparency to the center value.
|
|
3. Hit the "blur" checkbox.
|
|
4. Set the blur to maximum.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# Adding Custom Images
|
|
|
|
The folder Images/Extra is for adding custom images. You can manually add backgrounds to this folder and they will be visible to the program. Only PNG format is supported. To see a list of all the custom backgrounds type:
|
|
```
|
|
pokemon extra
|
|
```
|
|
Alternatively, you can delete images from this folder and it will not break the program.
|
|
|
|
# Solutions for Issues
|
|
|
|
If you experience a line at the top of the terminal after changing the Pokemon, you can remove it by typing in the *clear* command or opening a new terminal.

# Notes
|
|
|
|
- Nearly all of the Pokemon backgrounds were created by [Teej](https://pldh.net/gallery/the493).
|
|
- Originally the images were about 100mb in total but I used [pngquant](https://pngquant.org/) to compress them down to about 30mb.
|
|
- Since the images are compressed a *few* of them have some mild compression artifacts that are noticeable if the terminal is in full screen.
