Where Is the Zathura Config File?
Zathura zathurarc location under ~/.config/zathura on Linux with keybind and theme options.
Last updated
Zathura reads a single zathurarc file from its XDG config directory, holding key remaps, colors and plugin defaults. No file ships by default, so behavior stays stock until you create one.
The man page documents every option inline by example. Copy the one file and the whole setup, Vim bindings included, moves machines.
Where Zathura stores this, by platform
~/.config/zathura/zathurarc
Only config file Zathura reads. Create it if missing and set options like set selection-clipboard clipboard. Back up this one file to migrate everything.
