For example, `kubectl run ...` runs an -image on the cluster defined by the current kubernetes context. If you frequently change context -between "prod" and "testing", you might want to display the current context in Zsh prompt. If you do -likewise for AWS, Azure and Google Cloud credentials, prompt will get pretty crowded. - -Enter *Show On Command*. This feature makes prompt segments appear only when they are relevant to -the command you are currently typing. - -<details> - <summary>Screen recording</summary> - -  -</details> - -Configs created by `p10k configure` enable show on command for several prompt segments by default. -Here's the relevant parameter for kubernetes context: - -```zsh -# Show prompt segment "kubecontext" only when the command you are typing invokes one of these tools. -typeset -g POWERLEVEL9K_KUBECONTEXT_SHOW_ON_COMMAND='kubectl|helm|kubens' -``` - -To customize when different prompt segments are shown, open `~/.p10k.zsh`, search for -`SHOW_ON_COMMAND` and either remove these parameters to display affected segments unconditionally, -or change their values. - -### Transient prompt - -When *Transient Prompt* is enabled through `p10k configure`, Powerlevel10k will trim down every -prompt when accepting a command line. - -<details> - <summary>Screen recording</summary> - -  -</details> - -Transient prompt makes it much easier to copy-paste series of commands from the terminal scrollback. - -*Tip*: If you enable transient prompt, take advantage of two-line prompt. You'll get the benefit of -extra space for typing commands without the usual drawback of reduced scrollback density. Sparse -prompt (with an empty line before prompt) also works great in combination with transient prompt. - -### Current directory that just works - -The current working directory is perhaps the most important prompt segment. Powerlevel10k goes to -great length to highlight its important parts and to truncate it with the least loss of information -when horizontal space gets scarce. - -<details> - <summary>Screen recording</summary> - -  -</details> - -When the full directory doesn't fit, the leftmost segment gets truncated to its shortest unique -prefix. In the screencast, `~/work` becomes `~/wo`. It couldn't be truncated to `~/w` because it -would be ambiguous (there was `~/wireguard` when the session was recorded). The next segment -- -`projects` -- turns into `p` as there was nothing else that started with `p` in `~/work/`. - -Directory segments are shown in one of three colors: - -- Truncated segments are bleak. -- Important segments are bright and never truncated. These include the first and the last segment, - roots of Git repositories, etc. -- Regular segments (not truncated but can be) use in-between color. - -*Tip*: If you copy-paste a truncated directory and hit *TAB*, it'll complete to the original. - -*Troubleshooting*: [Directory is difficult to see in prompt when using Rainbow style.]( - #directory-is-difficult-to-see-in-prompt-when-using-rainbow-style) - -### Extremely customizable - -Powerlevel10k can be configured to look like any other Zsh theme out there. - -<details> - <summary>Screen recording</summary> - -  -</details> - -[Pure](#pure-compatibility), [Powerlevel9k](#powerlevel9k-compatibility) and [robbyrussell]( - #how-to-make-powerlevel10k-look-like-robbyrussell-oh-my-zsh-theme) emulations are built-in. -To emulate the appearance of other themes, you'll need to write a suitable configuration file.

When you run `p10k configure` and choose any style -except [Pure](#pure-compatibility), many of these segments get enabled by -default while others can be manually enabled by opening `~/.p10k.zsh` and uncommenting them. -You can enable as many segments as you like.

This section explains how you -can enable and configure it and lists caveats that you should be aware of. - -Instant prompt can be enabled either through `p10k configure` or by manually adding the following -code snippet at the top of `~/.zshrc`: - -```zsh -# Enable Powerlevel10k instant prompt. Should stay close to the top of ~/.zshrc. -# Initialization code that may require console input (password prompts, [y/n] -# confirmations, etc.) must go above this block; everything else may go below. -if [[ -r "${XDG_CACHE_HOME:-$HOME/.cache}/p10k-instant-prompt-${(%):-%n}.zsh" ]]; then - source "${XDG_CACHE_HOME:-$HOME/.cache}/p10k-instant-prompt-${(%):-%n}.zsh" -fi -``` - -It's important that you copy the lines verbatim. Don't replace `source` with something else, don't -call `zcompile`, don't redirect output, etc. - -When instant prompt is enabled, for the duration of Zsh initialization standard input is redirected -to `/dev/null` and standard output with standard error are redirected to a temporary file. Once Zsh -is fully initialized, standard file descriptors are restored and the content of the temporary file -is printed out. - -When using instant prompt, you should carefully check any output that appears on Zsh startup as it -may indicate that initialization has been altered, or perhaps even broken, by instant prompt. -Initialization code that may require console input, such as asking for a keyring password or for a -*[y/n]* confirmation, must be moved above the instant prompt preamble in `~/.zshrc`. Initialization -code that merely prints to console but never reads from it will work correctly with instant prompt, -although output that normally has colors may appear uncolored. You can either leave it be, suppress -the output, or move it above the instant prompt preamble. - -Here's an example of `~/.zshrc` that breaks when instant prompt is enabled: - -```zsh -if [[ -r "${XDG_CACHE_HOME:-$HOME/.cache}/p10k-instant-prompt-${(%):-%n}.zsh" ]]; then - source "${XDG_CACHE_HOME:-$HOME/.cache}/p10k-instant-prompt-${(%):-%n}.zsh" -fi - -keychain id_rsa --agents ssh # asks for password -chatty-script # spams to stdout even when everything is fine -# ... -``` - -Fixed version: - -```zsh -keychain id_rsa --agents ssh # moved before instant prompt - -# OK to perform console I/O before this point. -if [[ -r "${XDG_CACHE_HOME:-$HOME/.cache}/p10k-instant-prompt-${(%):-%n}.zsh" ]]; then - source "${XDG_CACHE_HOME:-$HOME/.cache}/p10k-instant-prompt-${(%):-%n}.zsh" -fi -# From this point on, until zsh is fully initialized, console input won't work and -# console output may appear uncolored. - -chatty-script >/dev/null # spam output suppressed -# ... -``` - -If `POWERLEVEL9K_INSTANT_PROMPT` is unset or set to `verbose`, Powerlevel10k will print a warning -when it detects console output during initialization to bring attention to potential issues. You can -silence this warning (without suppressing console output) with `POWERLEVEL9K_INSTANT_PROMPT=quiet`. -This is recommended if some initialization code in `~/.zshrc` prints to console and it's infeasible -to move it above the instant prompt preamble or to suppress its output. You can completely disable -instant prompt with `POWERLEVEL9K_INSTANT_PROMPT=off`. Do this if instant prompt breaks Zsh -initialization and you don't know how to fix it. - -The value of `POWERLEVEL9K_INSTANT_PROMPT` can be changed by running `p10k configure` and selecting -the appropriate option on the *Instant Prompt* screen. Alternatively, you can search for -`POWERLEVEL9K_INSTANT_PROMPT` in the existing `~/.p10k.zsh` and change its value there. - -*Note*: Instant prompt requires Zsh >= 5.4.

Prompt will get automatically refreshed when this -computation completes. - -When your current directory is within a Git repository, Powerlevel10k computes up-to-date Git -status after every command. If the repository is large, or the machine is slow, this computation -can take quite a bit of time. If it takes longer than 10 milliseconds (configurable via -`POWERLEVEL9K_VCS_MAX_SYNC_LATENCY_SECONDS`), Powerlevel10k displays the last known Git status in -grey and continues to compute up-to-date Git status in the background. When the computation -completes, Powerlevel10k refreshes prompt with new information, this time with colored Git status. - -When using *Rainbow* style, Git status is displayed as black on grey while it's still being -computed.

There is little value in showing `username` or `hostname` when you are logged in -to your local machine as a normal user. So the absence of `username@hostname` in your prompt is an -indication that you are working locally and that you aren't root. You can change it, however. - -Open `~/.p10k.zsh`.

To customize when different -prompt segments are shown, open `~/.p10k.zsh`, search for `SHOW_ON_COMMAND` and either remove these -parameters or change their values. - -You can also define a function in `~/.zshrc` to toggle the display of a prompt segment between -*always* and *on command*. This is similar to `kubeon`/`kubeoff` from -[kube-ps1](https://github.com/jonmosco/kube-ps1). - -```zsh -function kube-toggle() { - if (( ${+POWERLEVEL9K_KUBECONTEXT_SHOW_ON_COMMAND} )); then - unset POWERLEVEL9K_KUBECONTEXT_SHOW_ON_COMMAND - else - POWERLEVEL9K_KUBECONTEXT_SHOW_ON_COMMAND='kubectl|helm|kubens' - fi - p10k reload - if zle; then - zle push-input - zle accept-line - fi -} -``` - -Invoke this function by typing `kube-toggle`.

Look around in terminal's settings/preferences or consult -documentation. - -When you change the terminal color palette, it usually affects only the first 16 colors, numbered -from 0 to 15. In order to see any effect on Powerlevel10k prompt, you need to use prompt style that -utilizes these low-numbered colors. Type `p10k configure` and select *Rainbow*, *Lean* → *8 colors* -or *Pure* → *Original*. Other styles use higher-numbered colors, so they look the same in any -terminal color palette. - -#### Set colors through Powerlevel10k configuration parameters - -Open `~/.p10k.zsh`, search for "color", "foreground" and "background" and change values of -appropriate parameters. For example, here's how you can set the foreground of `time` prompt segment -to bright red: - -```zsh -typeset -g POWERLEVEL9K_TIME_FOREGROUND=160 -``` - -Colors are specified using numbers from 0 to 255. Colors from 0 to 15 look differently in different -terminals. Many terminals also support customization of these colors through color palettes -(a.k.a. color schemes, or themes). Colors from 16 to 255 always look the same. - -Type `source ~/.p10k.zsh` to apply your changes to the current Zsh session. - -To see how different numbered colors look in your terminal, run the following command: - -```zsh -for i in {0..255}; do print -Pn "%K{$i} %k%F{$i}${(l:3::0:)i}%f " ${${(M)$((i%6)):#3}:+$'\n'}; done -``` - -If your terminal supports truecolor, you can use 24-bit colors in the `#RRGGBB` format in addition -to the numbered colors. - -```zsh -typeset -g POWERLEVEL9K_TIME_FOREGROUND='#FF0000' -``` - -*Related:* - - [Directory is difficult to see in prompt when using Rainbow style.]( - #directory-is-difficult-to-see-in-prompt-when-using-rainbow-style) - - [Incorrect foreground color in VSCode Terminal.](#incorrect-foreground-color-in-vscode-terminal) - -By default, VSCode Terminal may arbitrarily replace the foreground color of your choice with a -different color. This behavior can be -[turned off](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/terminal/appearance#_minimum-contrast-ratio) in -VSCode settings. - -### Why does Powerlevel10k spawn extra processes? - -Powerlevel10k uses [gitstatus](https://github.com/romkatv/gitstatus) as the backend behind `vcs` -prompt; gitstatus spawns `gitstatusd` and `zsh`. See -[gitstatus](https://github.com/romkatv/gitstatus) for details. Powerlevel10k may also spawn `zsh` -to perform computation without blocking prompt. To avoid security hazard, these background processes -aren't shared by different interactive shells. They terminate automatically when the parent `zsh` -process terminates or runs `exec(3)`. - -### Are there configuration options that make Powerlevel10k slow? - -No, Powerlevel10k is always fast, with any configuration you throw at it. If you have noticeable -prompt latency when using Powerlevel10k, please -[open an issue](https://github.com/romkatv/powerlevel10k/issues). - -### Is Powerlevel10k fast to load? - -Yes. See [zsh-bench](https://github.com/romkatv/zsh-bench). - -### What is the relationship between Powerlevel9k and Powerlevel10k? - -Powerlevel10k was forked from Powerlevel9k in March 2019 after a week-long discussion in -[powerlevel9k#1170](https://github.com/Powerlevel9k/powerlevel9k/issues/1170). Powerlevel9k was -already a mature project with a large user base and a release cycle measured in months. Powerlevel10k -was spun off to iterate on performance improvements and new features at much higher pace. - -Powerlevel9k and Powerlevel10k are independent projects. When using one, you shouldn't install the -other. Issues should be filed against the project that you actually use. There are no individuals -that have commit rights in both repositories. All bug fixes and new features committed to -Powerlevel9k repository get ported to Powerlevel10k. - -Over time, virtually all code in Powerlevel10k has been rewritten. There is currently no meaningful -overlap between the implementations of Powerlevel9k and Powerlevel10k. - -Powerlevel10k is committed to maintaining backward compatibility with all configs indefinitely. This -commitment covers all configuration parameters recognized by Powerlevel9k (see -[Powerlevel9k compatibility](#powerlevel9k-compatibility)) and additional parameters that only -Powerlevel10k understands. Names of all parameters in Powerlevel10k start with `POWERLEVEL9K_` for -consistency. - -### Does Powerlevel10k always render exactly the same prompt as Powerlevel9k given the same config? - -Almost. There are a few differences. - -- By default only `git` vcs backend is enabled in Powerlevel10k. If you need `svn` and `hg`, add - them to `POWERLEVEL9K_VCS_BACKENDS`. These backends aren't yet optimized in Powerlevel10k, so - enabling them will make prompt *very slow*. -- Powerlevel10k doesn't support `POWERLEVEL9K_VCS_SHOW_SUBMODULE_DIRTY=true`. -- Powerlevel10k strives to be bug-compatible with Powerlevel9k but not when it comes to egregious - bugs. If you accidentally rely on these bugs, your prompt will differ between Powerlevel9k and - Powerlevel10k. Some examples: - - Powerlevel9k ignores some options that are set after the theme is sourced while Powerlevel10k - respects all options. If you see different icons in Powerlevel9k and Powerlevel10k, you've - probably defined `POWERLEVEL9K_MODE` before sourcing the theme. This parameter gets ignored - by Powerlevel9k but honored by Powerlevel10k. If you want your prompt to look in Powerlevel10k - the same as in Powerlevel9k, remove `POWERLEVEL9K_MODE`. - - Powerlevel9k doesn't respect `ZLE_RPROMPT_INDENT`. As a result, right prompt in Powerlevel10k - can have an extra space at the end compared to Powerlevel9k. Set `ZLE_RPROMPT_INDENT=0` if you - don't want that space. More details in - [troubleshooting](#extra-space-without-background-on-the-right-side-of-right-prompt). - - Powerlevel9k has inconsistent spacing around icons. This was fixed in Powerlevel10k. Set - `POWERLEVEL9K_LEGACY_ICON_SPACING=true` to get the same spacing as in Powerlevel9k. More - details in [troubleshooting](#extra-or-missing-spaces-around-icons). - - There are dozens more bugs in Powerlevel9k that don't exist in Powerlevel10k. - -If you notice any other changes in prompt appearance when switching from Powerlevel9k to -Powerlevel10k, please [open an issue](https://github.com/romkatv/powerlevel10k/issues). - -### What is the best prompt style in the configuration wizard? - -There are as many opinions on what constitutes the best prompt as there are people. It mostly comes -down to personal preference. There are, however, a few hidden implications of different choices. - -Pure style is an exact replication of [Pure Zsh theme](https://github.com/sindresorhus/pure). It -exists to ease the migration for users of this theme. Unless you are one of them, choose Lean -style over Pure. - -If you want to confine prompt colors to the selected terminal color palette (say, *Solarized Dark*), -use *Rainbow*, *Lean* → *8 colors* or *Pure* → *Original*. Other styles use fixed colors and thus -look the same in any terminal color palette. - -All styles except Pure have an option to use *ASCII* charset. Prompt will look less pretty but will -render correctly with all fonts and in all locales. - -If you enable transient prompt, take advantage of two-line prompt. You'll get the benefit of -extra space for typing commands without the usual drawback of reduced scrollback density. Having -all commands start from the same offset is also nice. - -Similarly, if you enable transient prompt, sparse prompt (with an empty line before prompt) is a -great choice. - -If you are using vi keymap, choose prompt with `prompt_char` in it (shown as green `❯` in the -wizard). This symbol changes depending on vi mode: `❯`, `❮`, `V`, `▶` for insert, command, visual -and replace mode respectively. When a command fails, the symbol turns red. *Lean* style always has -`prompt_char` in it. *Rainbow* and *Classic* styles have it only in the two-line configuration -without left frame. - -If you value horizontal space or prefer minimalist aesthetics: - -- Use a monospace font, such as [the recommended font](#meslo-nerd-font-patched-for-powerlevel10k). - Non-monospace fonts require extra space after icons that are larger than a single column. -- Use Lean style. Compared to Classic and Rainbow, it saves two characters per prompt segment. -- Disable *current time* and *frame*. -- Use *few icons*. The extra icons enabled by the *many icons* option primarily serve decorative - function. Informative icons, such as background job indicator, will be shown either way. - -*Note*: You can run configuration wizard as many times as you like. Type `p10k configure` to try new -prompt style. - -### How to make Powerlevel10k look like robbyrussell Oh My Zsh theme? - -Use [this config]( - https://github.com/romkatv/powerlevel10k/blob/master/config/p10k-robbyrussell.zsh). - -You can either download it, save as `~/.p10k.zsh` and `source ~/.p10k.zsh` from `~/.zshrc`, or -source `p10k-robbyrussell.zsh` directly from your cloned `powerlevel10k` repository. - -### Can prompts for completed commands display error status for *those* commands instead of the commands preceding them? - -No. When you hit *ENTER* and the command you've typed starts running, its error status isn't yet -known, so it cannot be shown in prompt. When the command completes, the error status gets known but -it's no longer possible to update prompt for *that* command. This is why the error status for every -command is reflected in the *next* prompt. - -For details, see [this post on /r/zsh]( -https://www.reddit.com/r/zsh/comments/eg49ff/powerlevel10k_prompt_history_exit_code_colors/fc5huku). - -### What is the minimum supported Zsh version? - -Zsh 5.3 or newer should work.

Based on your prompt style choices, the configuration wizard creates -`~/.p10k.zsh` with a bunch of `POWERLEVEL9K_*` parameters in it and adds a line to `~/.zshrc` to -source this file. The next time you start Zsh, the configuration wizard shouldn't run automatically. -If it does, this means the evaluation of `~/.zshrc` terminates prematurely before it reaches the -line that sources `~/.p10k.zsh`. This most often happens due to syntax errors in `~/.zshrc`. These -errors get hidden by the configuration wizard screen, so you don't notice them. When you exit -configuration wizard, look for error messages. You can also use -`POWERLEVEL9K_DISABLE_CONFIGURATION_WIZARD=true zsh` to start Zsh without automatically running the -configuration wizard. Once you can see the errors, fix `~/.zshrc` to get rid of them. - -### Some prompt styles are missing from the configuration wizard - -If Zsh version is below 5.7.1 or `COLORTERM` environment variable is neither `24bit` nor -`truecolor`, configuration wizard won't offer Pure style with Snazzy color scheme. *Fix*: Install -Zsh >= 5.7.1 and use a terminal with truecolor support. Verify with `print -P '%F{#ff0000}red%f'`. - -If the terminal can display fewer than 256 colors, configuration wizard preselects Lean style with -8 colors. All other styles require at least 256 colors. *Fix*: Use a terminal with 256 color support -and make sure that `TERM` environment variable is set correctly. Verify with -`print $terminfo[colors]`. - -If there is no UTF-8 locale on the system, configuration wizard won't offer prompt styles that use -Unicode characters. *Fix*: Install a UTF-8 locale. Verify with `locale -a`. - -Another case in which configuration wizard may not offer Unicode prompt styles is when the -`MULTIBYTE` shell option is disabled. *Fix*: Enable the `MULTIBYTE` option, or rather don't disable -it (this option is enabled in Zsh by default). Verify with `print -r -- ${options[MULTIBYTE]}`. - -When `MULTIBYTE` is enabled and a UTF-8 locale is available, the first few questions asked by the -configuration wizard assess capabilities of the terminal font. If your answers indicate that some -glyphs don't render correctly, configuration wizard won't offer prompt styles that use them. *Fix*: -Restart your terminal and install -[the recommended font](#meslo-nerd-font-patched-for-powerlevel10k). Verify by running -`p10k configure` and checking that all glyphs render correctly. - -### Cannot install the recommended font - -Once you download [the recommended font](#meslo-nerd-font-patched-for-powerlevel10k), -you can install it just like any other font.

These come in two flavors. - -#### Extra space without background on the right side of right prompt - -tl;dr: Add `ZLE_RPROMPT_INDENT=0` to `~/.zshrc` to get rid of that space. - -From [Zsh documentation]( - http://zsh.sourceforge.net/Doc/Release/Parameters.html#index-ZLE_005fRPROMPT_005fINDENT): - -> `ZLE_RPROMPT_INDENT <S>` -> -> If set, used to give the indentation between the right hand side of the right prompt in the line -> editor as given by `RPS1` or `RPROMPT` and the right hand side of the screen. If not set, the -> value `1` is used. -> -> Typically this will be used to set the value to `0` so that the prompt appears flush with the -> right hand side of the screen. - -Powerlevel10k respects this parameter. If you set `ZLE_RPROMPT_INDENT=1` (or leave it unset, which -is the same thing as setting it to `1`), you'll get an empty space to the right of right prompt. If -you set `ZLE_RPROMPT_INDENT=0`, your prompt will go to the edge of the terminal. This is how it -works in every theme except Powerlevel9k. - - - -Powerlevel9k issue: [powerlevel9k#1292](https://github.com/Powerlevel9k/powerlevel9k/issues/1292). -It's been fixed in the development branch of Powerlevel9k but the fix hasn't yet made it to -`master`. - -Add `ZLE_RPROMPT_INDENT=0` to `~/.zshrc` to get the same spacing on the right edge of prompt as in -Powerlevel9k. - -*Note:* Several versions of Zsh have bugs that get triggered when you set `ZLE_RPROMPT_INDENT=0`. -Powerlevel10k can work around these bugs when using powerline prompt style. If you notice visual -artifacts in prompt, or wrong cursor position, try removing `ZLE_RPROMPT_INDENT` from `~/.zshrc`. - -#### Extra or missing spaces around icons - -tl;dr: Add `POWERLEVEL9K_LEGACY_ICON_SPACING=true` to `~/.zshrc` to get the same spacing around -icons as in Powerlevel9k. - -Spacing around icons in Powerlevel9k is inconsistent. - - - -This inconsistency is a constant source of annoyance, so it was fixed in Powerlevel10k. You can add -`POWERLEVEL9K_LEGACY_ICON_SPACING=true` to `~/.zshrc` to get the same spacing around icons as in -Powerlevel9k. - -*Note:* It's not a good idea to define `POWERLEVEL9K_LEGACY_ICON_SPACING` when using -`p10k configure`. - -### Weird things happen after typing `source ~/.zshrc` - -It's almost always a bad idea to run `source ~/.zshrc`, whether you are using Powerlevel10k or not. -This command may result in random errors, misbehaving code and progressive slowdown of Zsh. - -If you've made changes to `~/.zshrc` or to files sourced by it, restart Zsh to apply them. The most -reliable way to do this is to type `exit` and then start a new Zsh session. You can also use -`exec zsh`. While not exactly equivalent to complete Zsh restart, this command is much more reliable -than `source ~/.zshrc`. - -### Transient prompt stops working after some time - -See [weird things happen after typing `source ~/.zshrc`]( - #weird-things-happen-after-typing-source-zshrc). - -### Cannot make Powerlevel10k work with my plugin manager - -If the [installation instructions](#installation) didn't work for you, try disabling your current -theme (so that you end up with no theme) and then installing Powerlevel10k manually. - -1.

It isn't specific to -Powerlevel10k. See [mitigation](#mitigation). - -*Note: This section [used to say]( - https://github.com/romkatv/powerlevel10k/blob/dce00cdb5daaa8a519df234a7012ba3257b644d4/README.md#horrific-mess-when-resizing-terminal-window) -that the problem is caused by a bug in Zsh. While it's true that it's possible to avoid the problem -in many circumstances by modifying Zsh, it cannot be completely resolved this way. Thus it's unfair -to pin the blame on Zsh.* - -#### The anatomy of the problem - -The issue is manifested when the vertical distance between the start of the current prompt and the -cursor (henceforth `VD`) changes when the terminal window is resized. - -When a terminal window gets shrunk horizontally, there are two ways for a terminal to handle long -lines that no longer fit: *reflow* or *truncate*. - -Terminal content before shrinking: - - - -Terminal reflows text when shrinking: - - - -Terminal truncates text when shrinking: - - - -Reflowing strategy can change the height of terminal content. If such content happens to be between -the start of the current prompt and the cursor, Zsh will print prompt on the wrong line. Truncation -strategy never changes the height of terminal content, so it doesn't trigger this issue. - -Let's see how the issue plays out in slow motion. We'll start by launching `zsh -f` and pasting -the following code: - -```zsh -function pause() { read -s } -functions -M pause 0 - -reset -print -l {1..3} -setopt prompt_subst -PROMPT=$'${$((pause()))+}left>${(pl.$((COLUMNS-12))..-.)}<right\n> ' -``` - -When `PROMPT` gets expanded, it calls `pause` to let us observe the state of the terminal. Here's -the initial state: - - - -Zsh keeps track of the cursor position relative to the start of the current prompt. In this case it -knows that the cursor is one line below. When we shrink the terminal window, it looks like this: - - - -At this point the terminal sends `SIGWINCH` to Zsh to notify it about changes in the terminal -dimensions. Note that this signal is sent *after* the content of the terminal has been reflown. - -When Zsh receives `SIGWINCH`, it attempts to erase the current prompt and print it anew. It goes to -the position where it *thinks* the current prompt is -- one line above the cursor (!) -- erases all -terminal content that follows and prints reexpanded prompt there. However, after resizing prompt is -no longer one line above the cursor. It's two lines above! Zsh ends up printing new prompt one line -too low. - - - -In this case we ended up with unwanted junk content because `VD` has *increased*. When you make -terminal window wider, `VD` can also *decrease*, which would result in the new prompt being printed -higher than intended, potentially erasing useful content in the process. - -Here are a few more examples where shrinking terminal window increased `VD`. - -- Simple one-line left prompt with right prompt. No `prompt_subst`. Note that the cursor is below - the prompt line (hit *ESC-ENTER* to get it there). -  -- Simple one-line left prompt. No `prompt_subst`, no right prompt. Here `VD` is bound to increase - upon terminal shrinking due to the command line wrapping around. -  - -#### Zsh patch - -[This Zsh patch](https://github.com/romkatv/zsh/tree/fix-winchanged) fixes the issue on some -terminals. The idea behind the patch is to use `sc` (save cursor) terminal capability before -printing prompt and `rc` (restore cursor) to move cursor back to the original position when prompt -needs to be refreshed. - -The patch works only on terminals that reflow saved cursor position together with text when the -terminal window is resized. The patch has no observable effect on terminals that don't reflow text -on resize (both patched and unpatched Zsh behave correctly) and on terminals that reflow text but -not the saved cursor position (both patched and unpatched Zsh redraw prompt at the same incorrect -position). In other words, the patch fixes the resizing issue on some terminals while keeping the -behavior unchanged on others. - -There are two alternative approaches to patching Zsh that may seem to work at first glance but in -fact don't: - -- Instead of `sc`, use `u7` terminal capability to query the current cursor position and then `cup` - to go back to it. This doesn't work because the absolute position of the start of the current - prompt changes when text gets reflown. -- Recompute `VD` based on new terminal dimensions before attempting to refresh prompt. This doesn't - work because Zsh doesn't know whether terminal reflows text or truncates it. If Zsh could somehow - know that the terminal reflows text, this approach still wouldn't work on terminals that - continuously reflow text and rapid-fire `SIGWINCH` when the window is being resized. In such - environment real terminal dimensions go out of sync with what Zsh thinks the dimensions are. - -There is no ETA for the patch making its way into upstream Zsh. See [discussion]( - https://www.zsh.org/mla/workers//2019/msg00561.html). - -#### Mitigation - -There are a few mitigation options for this issue. - -- Use [kitty](https://sw.kovidgoyal.net/kitty/) terminal version >= 0.24.0 and enable terminal-shell - integration in Powerlevel10k by defining `POWERLEVEL9K_TERM_SHELL_INTEGRATION=true` in - `~/.p10k.zsh`. -- Apply [the patch](#zsh-patch) and [rebuild Zsh from source]( - https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh/blob/master/INSTALL). It won't help if you are using Alacritty, - kitty or some other terminal that reflows text on resize but doesn't reflow saved cursor position. - On such terminals the patch will have no visible effect. -- Disable text reflowing on window resize in terminal settings. If your terminal doesn't have this - setting, try a different terminal. -- Avoid long lines between the start of prompt and cursor. - 1. Disable ruler with `POWERLEVEL9K_SHOW_RULER=false`. - 2. Disable prompt connection with `POWERLEVEL9K_MULTILINE_FIRST_PROMPT_GAP_CHAR=' '`. - 3. Disable right frame with `POWERLEVEL9K_MULTILINE_FIRST_PROMPT_SUFFIX=''`, - `POWERLEVEL9K_MULTILINE_NEWLINE_PROMPT_SUFFIX=''` and - `POWERLEVEL9K_MULTILINE_LAST_PROMPT_SUFFIX=''`. - 4. Set `POWERLEVEL9K_RIGHT_PROMPT_ELEMENTS=()`. Right prompt on the last prompt line will cause - resizing issues only when the cursor is below it. This isn't very common, so you might want to - keep some elements in `POWERLEVEL9K_RIGHT_PROMPT_ELEMENTS` provided that none of them are - succeeded by `newline`. - -### Icons cut off in Konsole - -When using Konsole with a non-monospace font, icons may be cut off on the right side. Here -"non-monospace" refers to any font with glyphs wider than a single column, or wider than two columns -for glyphs designated as "wide" in the Unicode standard. - - - -The last line on the screenshot shows a cut off Arch Linux logo. - -There are several mitigation options for this issue. - -1. Use a different terminal. Konsole is the only terminal that exhibits this behavior. -2. Use a monospace font. -3. Manually add an extra space after the icon that gets cut off. For example, if the content of - `os_icon` prompt segment gets cut off, open `~/.p10k.zsh`, search for - `POWERLEVEL9K_OS_ICON_CONTENT_EXPANSION` and change it as follows: -```zsh -typeset -g POWERLEVEL9K_OS_ICON_CONTENT_EXPANSION='${P9K_CONTENT} ' # extra space at the end -``` -4. Use a different icon that is monospace. For example, if Arch Linux logo gets cut off, add - the following parameter to `~/.p10k.zsh`: -```zsh -typeset -g POWERLEVEL9K_LINUX_ARCH_ICON='Arch' # plain "Arch" in place of a logo -``` -5. Disable the display of the icon that gets cut off. For example, if the content of - `os_icon` prompt segment gets cut off, open `~/.p10k.zsh` and remove `os_icon` from - `POWERLEVEL9K_LEFT_PROMPT_ELEMENTS` and `POWERLEVEL9K_RIGHT_PROMPT_ELEMENTS`. - -*Note*: [Non-monospace fonts are not officially supported by Konsole]( - https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=418553#c5). - -### Arch Linux logo has a dot in the bottom right corner - - - -Some fonts have this incorrect dotted icon in bold typeface. There are two ways to fix this issue. - -1. Use a font with a correct Arch Linux logo in bold typeface. For example, - [the recommended Powerlevel10k font](#meslo-nerd-font-patched-for-powerlevel10k). -2. Display the icon in regular (non-bold) typeface. To do this, open `~/.p10k.zsh`, search for - `POWERLEVEL9K_OS_ICON_CONTENT_EXPANSION` and remove `%B` from its value. -```zsh -typeset -g POWERLEVEL9K_OS_ICON_CONTENT_EXPANSION='${P9K_CONTENT}' # not bold -``` - -### Incorrect git status in prompt - -Powerlevel10k uses [gitstatusd](https://github.com/romkatv/gitstatus) to inspect the state of git -repositories. The project relies on the [libgit2](https://github.com/libgit2/libgit2) library, which -has some gaps in its implementation. Under some conditions, this may result in discrepancies between -the real state of a git repository (reflected by `git status`) and what gets shown in the -Powerlevel10k prompt. - -Most notably, [libgit2 does not support `skipHash`](https://github.com/libgit2/libgit2/issues/6531). -If you see incorrect git status in prompt, run `git config -l` and check whether `skipHash` is -enabled. If it is, consider disabling it. Keep in mind that `skipHash` may be implicitly enabled -when activating certain git features, such as `manyFiles`. |
