Zsh plugin to expand aliases during presentations.

It also increases the terminal window's contrast to enhance visibility. 😉

Add the snippet below to your .zshrc file.

zinit ice wait'0' lucid
zinit light idadzie/zsh-presenter-mode

# or using the for syntax.
zinit light-mode for idadzie/zsh-presenter-mode

Clone this repository and source the zsh-presenter-mode.plugin.zsh file in your .zshrc file.

# Clone this repository.
git clone https://github.com/idadzie/zsh-presenter-mode.git $XDG_DATA_HOME/zsh-presenter-mode

# Append to your .zshrc file.
echo "source $XDG_DATA_HOME/zsh-presenter-mode/zsh-presenter-mode.plugin.zsh" | tee -a "${ZDOTDIR:-$HOME}/.zshrc"

In any terminal window, use the key binding Ctrl P,Ctrl M or the alias presenter-toggle to quickly switch between modes.

You can change the default key binding by adding the snippet below to your .zshrc.

bindkey '\e\e' toggle-presenter-mode

To not pollute the global namespace, there's a single $PRESENTER_MODE hash you can add to your .zshrc to customise the default parameters before loading this plugin.

declare -A PRESENTER_MODE
PRESENTER_MODE[BANNER_TEXT]='Welcome to My TED Talk!'
PRESENTER_MODE[BG_DEFAULT]='#2c2c2c'
PRESENTER_MODE[SHOW_PREEXEC_ARRAY]=1

# Load the plugin below.
...

The main presenter_mode_{start,stop} functions were borrowed from robobenklein's amazing dotfiles.
