For installation do the following
- download a font you like from [GitHub](https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts/releases). I use [FiraCode](https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts/releases/download/v3.2.1/FiraCode.zip).
- unzip the files
- select all ttf-files, right-click and choose 'Install' or 'Install for all users'

There are several themes you can select from [GitHub](https://github.com/JanDeDobbeleer/oh-my-posh/tree/main/themes). I use [M365Princess](https://github.com/JanDeDobbeleer/oh-my-posh/blob/main/themes/M365Princess.omp.json). You can find them after installation in ` %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Programs\oh-my-posh\themes `.

For installation run

```

Shows you suggestions and/or your history if you wish

![PSReadLine - Example](images/psreadline_example.png)

For installation run as administrator
```
Install-Module PSReadLine -Force
```

For this representation you need ` Set-PSReadLineOption -PredictionSource History ` and ` Set-PSReadLineOption -PredictionViewStyle ListView `.

> [!TIP]
> If you want to use ` Set-PSReadLineOption -PredictionSource HistoryAndPlugin ` you need at least PowerShell version 7.1.999.
