Typo.

> Assuming that's not the problem ...  You mentioned having a similar occurrence but with a different emoji on your Mac.  Different emoji characters might need different numbers of "glitch", e.g., on the Mac the emoji might occupy only one position, so you need only %1G (or just %G).  Also on different terminals the same emoji might occupy different numbers of positions, though that's less likely.

Same terminal emulator, same behavior, different emojis. I have setups for 👹, , and 🥧 (though I use the pi so rarely I am not sure it has the same problem. Currently, I always lose the space after the #

Whit this
#v+
function toon {
  echo -n “%(👹%2G%}”
}

PROMPT=$'$(toon) %{$fg_bold[red]%}%n@%m %{$fg_bold[green]%}# '

👹 root@mail #cd /var/log
👹 root@mail #pwd
/var/log
#v-

If I remove the space after the $(toon) in PROMPT I get

👹root@mail #pwd

Still no final space.

That is the entirety of the file, barring comments.

oh-my-Zsh updates frequently so if I do not currently have the latest version I am no more than a day or two out of date. Zsh versions are "5.7.1 (x86_64-apple-darwin19.0)" and "zsh 5.8 (i386-portbld-freebsd12.1)", but this problem has been consistently inconsistent since last fall.

That’s what I was afraid of. I’ll try playing around with a new user account on the off chance there is some odd setting in my Terminal.app preferences.
