Synopsis

--------
|
|

Description
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
By defining the ``fish_prompt`` function, the user can choose a custom prompt. The ``fish_prompt`` function is executed when the prompt is to be shown, and the output is used as a prompt.
|
|
|
|
The exit status of commands within ``fish_prompt`` will not modify the value of `$status <index.html#variables-status>`__ outside of the ``fish_prompt`` function.
|
|
|
|
``fish`` ships with a number of example prompts that can be chosen with the ``fish_config`` command.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Example
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
A simple prompt:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
function fish_prompt -d "Write out the prompt"
|
|
printf '%s@%s%s%s%s> ' (whoami) (hostname | cut -d . -f 1) \
|
|
(set_color $fish_color_cwd) (prompt_pwd) (set_color normal)
|
|
end
|
