# Install Jensen theme for tmux (default style, version 1)
cd ~/.config/tmux/
mkdir -p themes
cp /path/to/jensen/tmux/themer-tmux.dark.default.v1.tmuxtheme themes/jensen.tmuxtheme

tmux source-file ~/.tmux.conf

Color Palette

The Jensen theme uses a carefully curated palette inspired by Deus Ex: Human Revolution's iconic UI design:

Color Name Hex Code Usage
Eerie Black #141514 Main background, status bar background
White #FBFBFB Primary text, foreground elements
Silver Sand #C4C7C4 Inactive panes, secondary information
Marigold #EDA622 Primary accent, active pane, signature gold highlight
Electronic Copper #E55D02 Secondary accent, alerts
French Lime #A0FF33 Success states, positive feedback
Pacific Blue #0EA2C9 Information states, window indicators
Imperial Red #ED333C Error states, warnings, urgent notifications

Customization

You can customize the Jensen theme by modifying the theme file. Common customizations:

# Change status bar position
set -g status-position top

# Adjust status update interval
set -g status-interval 1

# Customize left/right status content
set -g status-left "#[fg=#EDA622]❯ #S "
set -g status-right "#[fg=#0EA2C9]%H:%M"

Tips

  • True Color: Ensure your terminal supports true color (24-bit)
  • Font: Use a powerline-compatible font for best results with block styles
  • Reload Quickly: Create a keybinding to reload tmux config:
    bind r source-file ~/.tmux.conf \; display "Jensen augmented!"
  • Pane Borders: The gold borders make it easy to see your active pane

Recommended tmux Settings

Pair Jensen with these settings for the best experience:

# Enable true color support
set -g default-terminal "screen-256color"
set -ga terminal-overrides ",*256col*:Tc"

# Better mouse support
set -g mouse on

# Start windows and panes at 1
set -g base-index 1
setw -g pane-base-index 1
