We'll come back to the details of that later, but for now, just download the files [.bash_profile](https://github.com/nicolahery/mac-dev-setup/blob/master/.bash_profile), [.bash_prompt](https://github.com/nicolahery/mac-dev-setup/blob/master/.bash_prompt), [.aliases](https://github.com/nicolahery/mac-dev-setup/blob/master/.aliases) attached to this document into your home directory (`.bash_profile` is the one that gets loaded, I've set it up to call the others):

$ cd ~
$ curl -O https://raw.github.com/jkatsnelson/mac-dev-setup-js/master/.bash_profile
$ curl -O https://raw.github.com/jkatsnelson/mac-dev-setup-js/master/.bash_prompt
$ curl -O https://raw.github.com/jkatsnelson/mac-dev-setup-js/master/.aliases

With that, open a new terminal tab (Cmd+T) and see the change! Try the list commands: `ls`, `ls -lh` (aliased to `ll`), `ls -lha` (aliased to `la`).

At this point you can also change your computer's name, which shows up in this terminal prompt. If you want to do so, go to **System Preferences** > **Sharing**. For example, I changed mine from "Nicolas's MacBook Air" to just "MacBook Air", so it shows up as `MacBook-Air` in the terminal.
