Hi,
Is this bug or feature that PS1 covers the text before?
~ % echo -n "foo"
~ %
In bash, tcsh and pdksh the second line would look like this:
foo~ %

Feature. It's required so that zsh's enhanced commandline editor works
right. Without it, zsh doesn't know what column the cursor is on, and
can't set RPROMPT right. To disable, "setopt nopromptcr".
