This command is too early in the process. If you restart iTerm your in fish and can't install OMF. Typing bash here gets to a bash shell but won't pipe int the OMF file. The solution was to get rid of the fish command in iTerm and then follow the instructions, putting back the fish path in preferences after. Hope this is useful for the still terminal illiterate like myself :)

EDIT: Also, having gone through the process now, my colour scheme doesn't seem to match the screen shot.

for me it works great...Thanks

Homebrew may install fish at a different path. Try running which fish and replace /usr/local/bin/fish with its output.

echo "/usr/local/bin/fish" | sudo tee -a /etc/shells

seems to be this command that doesn't work for me as when i check that directory, fish is not there. brew install fish works fine, its just that next section that i fall over on. Any tips?
thanks

Instead of /usr/local/bin/fish I used just fish as a path and it worked for me.
