This has the effect that I don't see the last line of the previous command, unless it is terminated by a newline. Example: perl -e 'print "hello"' does not show the output "hello", because it is erased immediately by the shell, but perl -e 'print "hello\n" shows, because the output is terminated by \n. My setting of PS1 is: %B%~%b> Is there a way to tell zsh not to erase the line before writing the prompt? Ronald --=20 Ronald Fischer =20
