Pumped Up Prompt

Pumped Up Prompt is a set of solutions to improve your shell experience. It contains:

1. Custom segmented shell prompt;
2. Fonts with segment separators and icons*;
3. Optional improvements.

*Font separators use the same Unicode places as Powerline Patched fonts (e.g. Nerd Fonts).

Features

Light 🎈
Pure bash. No hidden engines in the background. Fast even in huge projects.

Beautiful 🎀
All the separators are handcrafted and pixel-perfect. Enjoy the smoothness.

Hard to pronounce 🤔
Not really a feature, but... you can use it as a tongue twister!

Terminals

Notes on using Pumpt up Prompt with different terminal emulators:

iTerm

Pumpt up Prompt was originally developed for iTerm2, there should be no problems.

Hyper

Hyper treats characters as a browser (which differs from how iTerm does it), so separators won't align perfectly. Fortunately, you can easily fix it by adding some CSS to Hyper settings (⌘ + ,).
Start with this configuration:

// custom css to embed in the terminal window
termCSS: '.unicode-node { margin-left: -1px; padding-right: 1px; overflow: hidden; }',

Then add line-height (1.2em by default) and font-size (1em by default) changes if needed.

Terminal.app

Terminal.app has a mechanism that changes color for the last prompt character (Some research on the topic). There is no way to disable this behavior. I suggest you try other emulators if that bothers you.

TODO

• Update font files for the iTerm2 v3
• Add more previews
• Create a complete release
• Add terminal theme recommendations
• Remove line wrap bug caused by unclosed color tags
• Research the possibility of using 256 colors
• Windows OS adaptation
• Fix git autocomplete when using git aliases
