Correction README.md: General Instruction #71

Closed dundunn closed 8 years ago

dundunn commented 8 years ago

The Solarized color themes are distributed as database files for GNU dircolors, which is the application that sets up colors for GNU ls. To use any of the database files, run this:

eval dircolors /path/to/dircolorsdb To activate the theme for all future shell sessions, copy or link that file to ~/.dir_colors, and include the above command in your ~/.profile (for bash) or ~/.zshrc (for zsh).

If you do add "eval dircolors /path/to/dircolorsdb", xrdb will return "xrdb: colon missing on line 1, ignoring line". Not an error, but some may stumble over it. "eval: dircolors /path/to/dircolorsdb" should be written there.

can you give me the output of just dircolors /path/to/dircolors.256dark or whatever theme you used?

F*\ now I forgot, on which system I did those changes.

But from the look now everything's fine how it's described in the README. Sorry for wasting your time.
