Arch Live Terminal

Hello
Whenever I use the Arch live media to install or chroot, I get the text based display like everyone else. How can I have that terminal on normal arch? Yes I want the graphics occasionally; but that terminal beats the hell out of terminte, tilix, terminator, term-wtf, gnome-term, terminology,term-whogivesas**t.
THAT terminal is fast, great zsh, can keep up with my typing and is just deadly!
How do I get it on normal arch?
Thank you!

Re: Arch Live Terminal

The relevant bits are in this package https://www.archlinux.org/packages/extr … sh-config/

Not sure how you relate that to speed though or what graphical terminal emulators have to do with that, it's a normal VT apart from that afaik.

Re: Arch Live Terminal

Uhm, bash is the default in a freshly installed Arch, not some X login. Install zsh, copy the configs from the Arch live system if you must (but I suggest you write your own) and be done with it.
