Mac OSX TerminalColors not loaded error with Terminal version 2.1.1 (v273)

With the recent update to OSX Snow Leopard if your’re using the TerminalColors SIMBL plugin you may notice you’ll have an error when loading your Terminal.

This is easily fixable, by modifiying the Info.plist in the plugin to check for a higher version.

cd ~/Library/Application\ Support/SIMBL/Plugins/TerminalColours.bundle/Contents

open Info.plist in your favourite editor find the following lines:

28
29
30
31
<key>MaxBundleVersion</key>
<string>272</string>
<key>MinBundleVersion</key>
<string>240</string>

change the 272 to 273
save the file, close your Terminal.app completely (Cmd+Q)

Start Terminal again and everything should be back to normal.
