zsh_prompt

This is a re-implmentation of my bash prompt, which can be found at https://github.com/ch3pjw/bash_prompt.

This zsh prompt clearly and consisely lays out a whole bunch of useful status information to make your zsh session an even more joyous experience! The main design ethos was to break apart output from individual commands very clearly, show status information only when needed and place information on the screen where it's most relevant. So, for example, I place a blank line and horizontal rule between each command, display the exit status as a coloured UTF character right next where you're contuing your train of thought and place the completion time of your previous command way over to the right, so it's there if you want it but not cluttering your line of sight.

Features include:

  • Dynamic layout (resizes according to the width of your terminal, truncates long working directory path if necessary)
  • Previous command exit status and completion time
  • Git status (including ahead/behind)
  • Number of background jobs (including stopped jobs)
  • Number of connected tmux sessions
  • Native zsh + awk
