Subject: monitoring the shell prompt
Date: Sat, 2 Oct 1999 15:03:28 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <19991002150327.A11347@wigner.cstc.org> (raw)

I would like to monitor the command line editor status and perform
some action as a change happen.
Since i use to switch often between vi-cmd and vi-ins modes, it would 
be useful to get the current vi mode displayed within the prompt 
As an example:
In command mode:  PROMPT='(@%m) %n - %% '
In insert mode:   PROMPT='(@%m) %n + %% '

Is it possible with the current version of zsh?

Thank you for your suggestions
