Liquid Prompt gives you a nicely displayed prompt with useful information when you need it. It shows you what you need when you need it. You will notice what changes when it changes, saving time and frustration. You can even use it with your favorite shell – Bash or zsh.
See the Liquidprompt documentation for details on installing and configuring Liquidprompt.

- Does not display the number of commits to be pushed in Mercurial repositories.
- Browsing very large Subversion repositories may dramatically slow down
the display of Liquid Prompt (use
LP_DISABLED_VCS_PATHSto avoid that). - Subversion repositories cannot display commits to be pushed because that's not how Subversion works
- The window's title escape sequence may not work properly on some terminals
(like
xterm-256). - The analog clock requires a Unicode-aware terminal and at least a
sufficiently complete font on your system. The Symbola
font, designed by Georges Douros, is known to work well. On Debian or Ubuntu
install try the
fonts-symbolaorttf-ancient-fontspackage. - The "sudo" feature is disabled by default as there is no way to detect if the user has sudo rights without triggering a security alert that will annoy the sysadmin.
