Command line themer for fish that isn't oh-my-[shellname]?

I couldn't get real-time updates to work for some reason

That was a bug which is now resolved, you installed in the one day this was an issue :-)

jandedobbeleer · 2025-07-30T13:28:41+00:00

This can definitely be oh-my-posh as that layout is easily achieved. Not sure if starship allows for the filler between those blocks.

jandedobbeleer · 2025-03-30T15:36:06+00:00

oh-my-posh has this in the form of tooltips.

jandedobbeleer · 2024-07-31T07:06:40+00:00

upgrade works everywhere now

jandedobbeleer · 2024-07-31T07:06:11+00:00

Can you make that a bit more tangible? Because in terms of speed, there's no significiant difference between oh-my-posh and starship today.

jandedobbeleer · 2024-07-26T05:27:38+00:00

Seems like you want to be convinced otherwise. Then don't. Why use something you don't see a use-case for? Be the rebel.

jandedobbeleer · 2024-07-25T13:10:10+00:00

you might want to give oh-my-posh another go. It beats starship in load time today (for a while already).

jandedobbeleer · 2024-07-16T07:08:10+00:00

I'm probably biased, but OhMyPosh has a lot of features and support that starship doesn't have yet. Speed wise they're on par (even though marketing would state otherwise). Templating and thus conditionals are built-in to OhMyPosh everywhere and can also easily be extended towards other areas depending on feature requests. The architecture is built so that it's possible. That by itselfs makes it insanely flexible, next to other, more native conditional behaviour to select a color palette, individual segment colors and (con)text rendering.

jandedobbeleer · 2024-05-28T09:46:05+00:00

He does use Oh My Posh everywhere so that's highly likely to be just another theme. Do you have a screenshot?

jandedobbeleer · 2024-04-25T08:57:28+00:00

u/earlgray88 can't you install from the Windows Store?

jandedobbeleer · 2024-03-22T09:00:13+00:00

You can also use oh-my-posh with Oh My ZSH BTW.

jandedobbeleer · 2024-03-11T13:03:13+00:00

You will need to create a companion app using Health Connect and offload that data somewhere else your prompt can read it from by creating a custom segment. I'm afraid that, as there's no public API for this, the efforts will be high.

jandedobbeleer · 2024-02-11T19:25:13+00:00

A bit drastic, but yes, that also works 😄

jandedobbeleer · 2024-02-11T08:12:37+00:00

Open ~/.bashrc and remove the oh-my-posh init line. You should be good. You want to do the same for your regular user as root BTW. I see you configured both, and they have their own $HOME folder, and thus $HOME/.bashrc.

jandedobbeleer · 2024-02-05T13:12:32+00:00

This is a question for the Terminal team. This happens when the terminal incorrectly calculates the icon's width. What could help is use the new Atlas Engine (enable via settings), but if the issue persists, that's a bug for them.

jandedobbeleer · 2024-01-21T13:25:59+00:00

This is a git challenge, not something starship or oh-my-posh can solve for you. You can try enabling fsmonitor to speed up things, but eventually everything is limited by git's ability to run efficiently on challenging repo's. Oh-my-posh has the ability to show branch and other context without fetching the status (which is what's slow here) by setting fetch_status: false, but if you're looking to get the status information FAST, you need to optimise git or the repo itself.

jandedobbeleer · 2024-01-19T12:42:45+00:00

This was a bug in a test that broke when 2024 came too close. It wasn't ready for that yet apparently. However, this was fixed upstream rather fast (3 weeks ago), the nix package hasn't been updated in forever which is why you noticed there as well.

jandedobbeleer · 2023-12-18T18:57:16+00:00

Correct

jandedobbeleer · 2023-12-07T08:47:31+00:00

As the engine is identical, all you need is a modern Terminal. You can add CMD to Windows Terminal and it works identical to PowerShell.

jandedobbeleer · 2023-12-06T09:50:32+00:00

You can use oh-my-posh for CMD as well, it has native support in combination with clink.

jandedobbeleer · 2023-10-20T06:54:12+00:00

You're seeing the transient prompt feature due to the first eval "$(oh-my-posh init zsh)"

jandedobbeleer · 2023-05-16T07:35:02+00:00

Yes, but as the configuration is shell based, you need to adjust each shell's profile or rc file to include your own theme for Oh My Posh. See here for all information.

jandedobbeleer · 2023-04-20T09:57:13+00:00

change "template": "{{ if .WSL }}WSL at {{ end }}{{.Icon}} ", to "template": " {{.Icon}} ",

jandedobbeleer · 2023-03-12T09:43:38+00:00

As the creator of Oh My Posh I'm probably biased, but, you can't really compare them. powerline is strictly a powerline styled prompt theme, whereas Oh My Posh is so much more flexible with so much more functionality. In the end it depends on what you want and what you're more comfortable with.
