Yes, thank you! Not having the add-on configuration in /etc sounds like the right thing to do, because then things can remain in the hands of the package system. > Once there is a canonical location for grml-zsh-config I already have my > first > wishlist items: > > - Integrate vcsh into the prompt Grml's zsh setup uses a rather extensible prompt (since the last few releases). Generally, I'd like to not include too many special purpose code in grml's main configuration, because it is already quite large and complex. There are some facilities to implement special-purpose prompt support with grml's new prompts, though. There is an example, that adds virtual-env support: http://bewatermyfriend.org/p/2013/003/ Adding support for vcsh should be fairly straight forward. (Support for it could also be done via vcs_info and its hook subsystem.) > - make it configurable whether the name of the VCS is shown. I use git > exclusively so I'm just interested in the branch name. Grml's VCS information is provided by zsh's vcs_info system. That system is pretty configurable¹ and your wish is already easily solved. You just need to acknowledge, that grml's setup uses two vcs_info formats: One for its prompt and the other for setting titles in GNU screen and tmux based on the currently checked out branch. zstyle ':vcs_info:*' formats '[%b] ' 'zsh: %r' zstyle ':vcs_info:*' actionformats '[%b|%a] ' 'zsh: %r' Add colouring to your preference. ;) Regards, Frank ¹ man zshcontrib | less -p GATHER -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-wnpp-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
