And the best thing is if you can go to the github project, and view all the color code they have used. Click load or double click to launch a new Putty session with the new custom color. Once you have done both, open up Putty, you should be able to find two additional list under “Saved Sessions”. Download the registry and install it by double click. It comes with two version, one dark and one light version. You can download the Solarized Putty color scheme here. Of course you can change those color through the Putty setting configuration the build-in tweaking just wasn’t enough, and it’s also hard to use, not user friendly.įortunately there are some windows registry tweak you can add to make your putty instantly look like a pro user’s terminal.
Especially when the default color for display a directory is dark blue and the background color is in black, makes it very difficult to read.
The only thing I personally dislike very much about this program is the build in default color scheme for directory and filename highlighting. There are other tools out there that does similar job, but Putty is by far the most popular tools out there. The best way to SSH from Windows to Linux is to use a program called Putty. If you ever need to access a Linux or Mac machine from your Windows environment, often times you will using a protocol called SSH.
