1. Back up your existing config (if any)
Rename-Item "$env:USERPROFILE\.wezterm.lua" "$env:USERPROFILE\.wezterm.lua.bak" -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue2. Clone the repo
git clone https://github.com/raldisk/dotfiles-koo.git3. Copy the wezterm folder to your config directory
$dest = "$env:USERPROFILE\.config\wezterm"
New-Item -ItemType Directory -Force -Path $dest | Out-Null
Copy-Item -Recurse -Force .\dotfiles-koo\wezterm\* $dest4. Set your background image
Open wezterm/config/appearance.lua and update the path:
source = {File = 'C:\\Users\\YourName\\path\\to\\your-image.jpg'},5. Add backdrop images (optional — for the random/cycle keybinds)
Drop .jpg / .png files into wezterm/backdrops/.
6. Fully close and reopen WezTerm
Config reload (Ctrl+Shift+R) is not sufficient for the workspace rename — a cold start is required.
1. Install Oh My Posh
winget install JanDeDobbeleer.OhMyPosh -s winget2. Copy the theme
Copy-Item .\dotfiles-koo\ohmyposh\.poshconfig.json "$env:USERPROFILE\Downloads\Video\temp-ytdlp\.poshconfig.json"Or place it wherever you prefer.
3. Load in your PowerShell profile
notepad $PROFILEAdd:
oh-my-posh init pwsh --config "C:\path\to\.poshconfig.json" | Invoke-Expression4. Reload

WezTerm workspace (wezterm/config/general.lua):
default_workspace = 'your-name',Oh My Posh session (ohmyposh/.poshconfig.json):
"template": " your-name "In wezterm/config/appearance.lua, adjust brightness (1.0 = original, 1.4 = current):
hsb = { brightness = 1.4, saturation = 1.0, hue = 1.0 },In wezterm/events/focus-dim.lua:
overrides.window_background_opacity = 0.95 -- focused
overrides.window_background_opacity = 0.55 -- unfocusedWorkspace still shows machine hostname instead of koo@raldisk
Config reload (Ctrl+Shift+R) does not re-fire gui-startup. Do a full close — check Task Manager for lingering wezterm-gui.exe and end it before reopening.
Background image not loading
Verify the path in wezterm/config/appearance.lua uses double backslashes:
source = {File = 'C:\\Users\\YourName\\path\\to\\image.jpg'},If using the backdrop cycle system, drop images into wezterm/backdrops/ — the folder must contain at least one .jpg or .png file.
Battery indicator missing from right status bar Expected on desktops — the battery segment is skipped silently when no battery is present.
Oh My Posh prompt shows wrong username
The theme hardcodes koo@raldisk in the session segment template. If you want a different label, open ohmyposh/.poshconfig.json and change "template": " koo@raldisk ".
WezTerm won't start after copying config
Check the WezTerm debug overlay (F12) or run wezterm --config-file wezterm.lua from the config directory. Common causes: font not installed, Lua syntax error from a local edit.
Preview JSX won't lint
Run npm install first, then npm run lint. Requires Node 18+.
