I exported it from the Terminal settings. Hmm, I'll take a look.

@clickbrain what version of macOS are you using? I duplicated the Dracula theme when creating this one and I'm thinking it could be the font that makes it corrupt?

One commit in that repo was changing the font as a macOS Mojave update.

Hi @clickbrain

Are you simply double click the terminal after you downloaded the file?
You may need to right click the file and click "Open" to import from Finder, or import via Terminal Settings.

I'm running Sonoma 14.1. Thanks for checking.

@tklai Thanks.
Here's a screenvid of what I see when I try to import/open it.

Not sure if it is color profile issue. Can you try the terminal files from my PR #68?

Looked into some terminal theme repositories around GitHub and found this issue may relates to macOS security mechanism.
When users download a file from the internet, macOS attaches a flag com.apple.quarantine to prevent opening the files directly without user consents.

However, you can try the following command to remove the flag.

xattr -d com.apple.quarantine {the_file}

Part	Explanation
xattr	A macOS tool which manage extended attributes
-d	A flag that tell the tool to delete an attribute
com.apple.quarantine	The attribute that triggers macOS security mechanism
{the_file}	The file you want to process
