+bashish (theme enviroment for text terminals).
+
+Bashish is a theme enviroment for text terminals. It can change colors, font,
+transparency and background image on a per-application basis. Additionally
+Bashish supports prompt changing on common shells such as bash, zsh and tcsh.
+
+Bashish runs on most terminal emulators available.
+
+Bashish is great for people who:
+
+* Want a good looking prompt.
+* Want to configure the apperance of the terminal.
+* Want informative titles based on the command arguments.
+* Need different fonts for different applications - eg. Chinese, Japanese,
+OEM Terminal fonts.
+* While many of these features would be simple to implement as aliases or shell
+scripts, the tricky part where Bashish excels is that it does not affect the
+enviroment noticeably.
+
+As an example, Bashish provides themes even if the themed application is run
+in a pipe, this without affecting the pipe at all.
+
+Additionally there is no need to rewrite your aliases or functions since Bashish
+provides theming through shell script wrappers.
+
+To enable Bashish, simply run " bashish ", press ENTER key and hit Ctrl+C to quit.
+
+To choose another theme, see the theme list with: " bashish list " and to enable new theme simply run " bashish theme_name ".
