Install Antigen for ZSH

At the time of writing (March 2020), the version of ZSH Antigen included in Mint's apt was not up-to-date, here's how to install it directly.

Seems the version of zsh-antigen that's included in apt isn't up to date and can cause errors when opening a new session in Mint.

Remove Antigen installed via apt

If you've installed Antigen via apt, remove it:

sudo apt remove zsh-antigen

Download Antigen

Create a directory:
```
sudo mkdir /usr/share/zsh-antigen
```
Download antigen.zsh directly:
- Before you do this next step, verify that git.io/antigen takes you to https://raw.githubusercontent.com/zsh-users/antigen/master/bin/antigen.zsh (trust no one), then:
```
sudo curl -o /usr/share/zsh-antigen/antigen.zsh -sL git.io/antigen
```

Configure

Edit .zshrc in your favorite text editor

Add the following near the top:

source /usr/share/zsh-antigen/antigen.zsh

Near the bottom:
```
antigen apply
```

Any antigen theme you want to install would go somewhere between those two lines... something like:

source /usr/share/zsh-antigen/antigen.zsh
# A bunch of other config stuff here
# and maybe more stuff here
antigen theme romkatv/powerlevel10k
# That previous line is the theme I'm using
antigen apply

Finish it

Restart the CLI sessions (close and open the terminal)
Follow the prompts (if any)
