compile latest tilda and enjoy solarized terminal
Anybody who uses Linux desktop as workstation for prolonged times knows what difference good colour scheme can make in reducing eye strain.
After discovering Solarized theme for me there was no going back.
One of my recent discoveries was tilda, an awesome drop-down terminal. Only thing missing in tilda that would make it perfect tool was solarized theme. But fear not! Support for solarized theme is coming in upcoming tilda 1.2. If you can't wait for official update to come out then you can compile it yourself.
Install dependencies for Ubuntu:
sudo apt-get install libgtk-3-dev libvte-2.90-dev libconfuse-dev
For Fedora install these dependencies:
sudo yum install git automake libconfuse-devel vte3-devel gtk3-devel glib-devel gettext-devel gcc
And now grab sources, configure and compile tilda:
git clone https://github.com/lanoxx/tilda.git
cd tilda/
./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr
make --silent
sudo make install
And that is it! Enjoy.
