Subject: Zsh clears prompt line. Feature or bug?
Date: Wed, 6 Apr 2005 21:59:35 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1dc4e3890504061159601fb049@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

I changed form bash to zsh some time ago and it's been a pleasure to
use zsh. Except for one thing that irks me: Zsh clears the contents of
the line the prompt gets printed on. An example:

% echo -n "foo"
%

Bash handles this (IMO) more gracefully:

$ echo -n "foo"
foo$

The question is: can I turn this off in zsh? Is it a feature or a bug?

Regards,
Joel
