missing ‘end’ for ‘class Spaghetti’ started on line 1.

Although easier to read/understand, would that be more helpful or is it superfluous information?

Requirements:
Snow Leopard (I have 10.6.4)
Terminal running in 64 bit mode, version 2.1.1
SIMBL (0.9.7) (older version should be fine)
Visor 2.2 or TerminalColours.bundle (NOT newest version: will explain shortly)

Procedure:
If you are getting the following error message “Terminal 2.1.1 (v273) has not been tested with the plugin TerminalColours (null) (v1.0). As a precaution…”, and you can’t get rid of it by removing TerminalColours.bundle, then you must completely remove SIMBL and re-install it. This includes the simbl.osax file. Before removing SIMBL, store any .bundle files you might have currently installed temporarily on your desktop. Delete the TerminalColours.bundle. They are located at ~/Library/Application Support/SIMBL.

The files you must remove are:

1. /Library/ScriptingAdditions/simbl.osax
2. /Library/Application Support/SIMBL
3. ~/Library/Application Support/SIMBL

Now re-intall SIMBL (http://www.culater.net/software/SIMBL/SIMBL.php) and the error message should be GONE. If not, you didn’t completely uninstall SIMBL.

Now you should install Visor 2.2 (http://visor.binaryage.com/) or if you don’t want visor, just the TerminalColours.bundle which DOESN’T cause the error message (http://bwaht.net/code/TerminalColours.bundle.zip). That said, I really really recommend Visor. Even if you don’t want the dropdown, you don’t have to enable this feature in Visor. Also, I have tested this method using Visor on two computers and it works.

If you decide to use TerminalColours.bundle, you need to right click on the bundle in finder, and click “Show Package Contents…”, open the “Info.plist” file and change the MaxBundleVersion to 273, and CFBundleIdentifier to sh.ciaranwal.terminal-colours, or just see Ted Naleid’s post above.

The next step is to create a text file called .bash_profile which has the following content:

#colorize the Terminal
export GREP_OPTIONS=’–color=auto’
export CLICOLOR=1;

save the file in your home directory (~)

Open Terminal and it should be working.

If you are annoyed by the “window blinking” issue when Terminal Opens (caused by Visor), i highly recommend adding Terminal to your login items and checking the “Hide” box.

alright, so i figured out that its the version on github (i’m guessing that’s the NEWER one) which is causing the error message.

the termialcolours link below causes no error message for me AND works perfectly.

(unfortunately, i still can’t get RID of the messages which already began appearing. once one of them is there, they don’t go away)

Thanks to visor, color editing now seems to be working and saving my edits. For some reason, I believe it was by installing an OLDER version of visor (2.0 and/or 2.0.1) (I ran the two “exe” files in 2.0 and I don’t know if that did anything) that changing colors in visor began actually working. Now I put the newest 2.2 version on my computer and it works great.

I still get the window “blink” when terminal first launched, but I think this is unavoidable. It seems that terminal must launch normally before visor adds its effects.

So my only problem now is the error message which will not go away. Do you think re-installing terminal could fix this?

thanks very much for your help. if anyone needs info on how i got visor to start working I will be happy to elaborate.
