 # one-monokai-gnome-terminal-color-theme
 One Monokai color theme for GNOME Terminal
+
+### How to apply theme:
+Download 'one-monokai.dconf' file
+1. Create a new profile in GNOME Terminal settings, rename it to e.g. 'default'. The name will be overwritten on import, you can then rename it again to what you want
+   This step is not necessary if you already have created a profile that is not the default "unnamed" profile.
+2. Set the new profile as the default profile
+3. run `dconf dump /org/gnome/terminal/legacy/profiles:/`, see that it returns output similar to this:
+
+    $ dconf dump /org/gnome/terminal/legacy/profiles:/
+    [/]
+    list=['e27d087d-18c4-4b72-83be-c84103543515']
+    default='e27d087d-18c4-4b72-83be-c84103543515'
+
+    [:e27d087d-18c4-4b72-83be-c84103543515]
+    visible-name='default'
+
+4. Copy the UUID of the created profile (in the example it is :e27d087d-18c4-4b72-83be-c84103543515 )
+5. Run `dconf load /org/gnome/terminal/legacy/profiles:/:e27d087d-18c4-4b72-83be-c84103543515/ < one-monokai.dconf`
+   This will import the settings from the file to the profile and also apply it as the current profile.
+6. Modify other settings as needed.
