Everything working OK!
Just curious about:

[prompt]
┌─(~)───────────────────────────────────────────(dnormandin@antixbox)─
└─›                                                           <130>
[/prompt]

The <130> at the right of this prompt. What is that? Total commands
for the session?

Without context or code, no one can tell you how your own prompt
works.  Presumably you got it from a framework or plugin system or
code you copypasted from the Web.

As an educated guess, it sure looks like $?.  Try running some
commands and observing how it changes.

Okay, the relevant bit is this --

    RPS1="%(?..%B%F{red}<%?>%f%b)"

-- specifically ''%?'', which is described in zshmisc(1).

    %?  The return status of the last command executed just before
        the prompt.

Muchas gracias! Hopefully zshmisc has a list of those return
statuses. 
Thanks again and Feliz Navidad!!!

It doesn't, as the shell does not determine the exit statuses of
external utilities.  Beyond the general convention of zero for
success and nonzero otherwise, utilities dictate their own statuses,
so it's up to you to consult the appropriate documentation.

(The zshbuiltins(1) man page documents notable exit statuses for
builtins.)

> Feliz Navidad!!!

Likewise!

In addition to the zero/non-zero convention, there are:

- A process killed by a signal exits with 128+$signal.  That's why
  Lawrence guessed the <130> was the exit code (130-128 is SIGINT)..

- There's sysexits.h, but not everyone uses it.  However, one could
  argue that zsh should recognize those and print messages similar to
  the messages it prints for processes killed by signals.

Cheers,

Daniel
