(The default is **true** in all contexts.) == PROMPT == +The //grmlzshrc// now supplies three prompt themes compatible with zsh's +**promptinit** system. The three themes are called **grml**, **grml-large** and +**grml-chroot**. + +By default, **grml** is used, unless //$GRMLPROMPT// is set to a value larger +than zero, in which case **grml-large** is used.

The main source of documentation about +customisation is the main **grml** theme's doc-string, that is available via +the following command: +\ +``` + prompt -h grml +``` + +The other themes also come with doc-strings, but the main theme's is the +canonical reference about all of them. + +This feature requires version //4.3.7// of the shell. Older versions will use +the classic grml prompt as a fallback. + +A note to people who like customisation: If you are **not** using a prompt +theme for your customisation, but you're either statically setting $PS1 (or +$PROMPT) or you're constructing one of those variables in zsh's \`precmd()' +function, make sure you are turning the zsh's prompt theme system **off** +before doing so. A correct example customisation could look like this: +\ +``` + # Turn the prompt system off: + prompt off + # Customise the prompt yourself: + PS1='%~ %# ' +``` + +You also add your own tokens by using the \`grml_theme_add_token()' function. +Call the function without arguments for detailed documentation about that +procedure. == GNU/SCREEN STATUS SETTING == //grmlzshrc// sets screen's hardstatus lines to the currently running command @@ -464,6 +511,23 @@ Display help on keybindings and zsh line editor.
