With the release of v3.3 of iTerm2 (I only just recently noticed this version mixup – v3 of v2 🙈) a Minimal and Compact theme entered the stage. That motivated me to prettify my iTerm2/ZSH terminal.
Today, I'm very pleased with my setup, and people asked me to share my settings – so here we are!
zsh has excellent capabilities of supporting different version control systems, like git in its command line prompt. Setup is pretty convoluted and I’ll try to guide you through it to give you basic understanding of all the building blocks. You’ll be able to craft your own one.
Managing your files got a lot easier and faster. Taggy Tagger can automatically tag and move files for you. Simply drag and drop a folder from Finder and select the tags you want to be added. That's it. Now, watch them appear and trigger actions whenever you add files to that folder. No need for complex rules or scripts. Just a switch.
When I need to work long hours outside of the office I usually set a smaller font in iTerm2 and Emacs (those are the applications that I use most) because I don't have access to a large external display.

Yes, there are a lot of Lorem Ipsum generators already. Even when we started with this one in 2009. But all others lack features, or are too limited. Here's what Loripsum.net has to offer:
API
Loripsum.net has an API to generate placeholder text to insert it in whatever software/webapp you want. See below for details.
Customization
Most generators only output some paragraphs of about the same length. Sometimes you need lists, headings, long paragraphs, etc. The website/magazine that you're designing probably isn't going to be filled with happy uniform paragraphs, so your placeholder text should reflect that.
Different text, all the time
Most generators output the same results every time you request some text. Loripsum.net uses the full text of Cicero's "De finibus bonorum et malorum" to make sure you get a different placeholder text every single time.
