I'm using an embedded terminal in VS code for windows, but using zsh provided by babun as the shell.
I've also configured the prompt in the windows terminal app a little bit.
For some reason, the terminal app shows the prompt how I expect it to look:
terminal on windows
but the integrated terminal shows me a '%' symbol above each line:
integrated terminal in vs code
I'm still fairly new to customizing shells and have not been able to find a solution looking online, or playing around with the theme file myself.
I was hoping someone could look at my theme file below and help me understand what the possible offender for the '%' symbol could by could be:
modified babun.zsh-theme
I modified lines 4 and 10, to show the whole path in line 4 and show no path in line 10. The originals are commented out.

I am currently using Visual Studio Code for my local development. I use the terminal for commands but have realized it will sometimes input something like ^[[A instead of the last command I ran when I hit the up button. This is occurring on Bash and my zsh terminal. I am using a Mac as well. Is there any further configuration I need to do in order to show my last command and not this weird symbol that keeps showing up?
The command shows up like this
Okay, I think this solution helped: https://stackoverflow.com/a/40347121/19633998
Basically all boils down to what sort of configuration your terminal has. Mine was defaulted to bin/zsh. Changed it to bin/bash and it seems to be working at the moment.
Recently after updating my VS Code I saw the following image in the Release Notes (in the Split terminal feature section)
I can't figure out a way to add such Syntax Highlighting in my terminal. Obviously, this is bash in the integrated terminal. Well, I'm using Command prompt and I don't seem to find any satisfying answer for getting colored text on my terminal (that does not mean just foreground or background color). Mine looks like...
Is there a way to fill this dull terminal with interesting text colors.
The upper one is the output of something called "node"
the second one is your terminal
so the first one is an outputstream of e.g. an program which formats stuff a bit else, also is output of an program in a terminal displayed differently than just the shell
and now to your question, the shell inside vscode has the same theme like your standard shell
so windows -> cmd, ubuntu bash, ...
I'm using windows 10 and installed cmder, using the fish shell with omf Theme fishface.
But every new row, it will show a new row Mark as this picture. Screenshot for new row mark
How can I get rid of this mark?
** didn't work if I change to another theme too.
Additional information without cmder.
Screenshot with cmd.exe + bash + fish
You can't disable that feature. The fish shell uses a heuristic (inherited from zsh) to determine if the output of the preceding command ended with a newline. If it doesn't it displays the Unicode U+23CE symbol (what you're seeing) or a tilde. Search the code for the symbol PROMPT_SP. Commit 58347d49 that I wrote and merged 2016-12-23 fixed that behavior for the Windows ConEmu terminal emulator. See issue 789. Based on your problem description it appears that heuristic does not work correctly in the cmder terminal. This probably means that terminal emulator has a bug since it doesn't behave like nearly all the terminals that fish runs on. Feel free to open an issue
I am looking for a way to have my Notepad++ window open for editing my code and run it line by line or by sections (more than 1 line) while I am editing. It would be like having a real IDE; the output could be shown in the same window (Notepad++) or directly in the Octave window.
I have tried what many many sites say. That is, writing this:
C:\Software\Octave-3.6.4\bin\Octave\Octave-3.6.5.exe "$(FULL_CURRENT_PATH)"
in the Run window in Notepad++, saving and giving it a shortcut. However, it is still not working. When I tried to run it, the black window starts showing-up but then it disappears and nothing else happens. In my Notepad++ window I have only one line (for now) where I have tried just "b=4" or "3*4". I have done this with and without semicolon at the end. Nothing happens.
I have Windows 8.0, Notepad 6.5.5 and Octave-3.6.4. I already change the octaverc file in Octave to make it work with Notepad++. I have work already only in the command line in Octave and is working fine. The Octave I installed was exactly "octave-3.6.4-vs2010-setup", it says it was compiled for Visual Studio 10. Is that the reason why this is not working?
Any help will be appreciated...
regarding Octave not processing the command: use supposed command line outside the N++ and see if it works. If not, find a way to make it working, then transfer it back to N++ (and use the token "$(FULL_CURRENT_PATH)" instead of concrete filename)
regarding running the code in smaller portions: if you app can accept the code directly in the command line (SQL command line tools I use can do this), then you can use token "$(CURRENT_WORD)" what stands for content of current selection (all tokens are in wiki)
I recently got a mac. I was previously working on a laptop with ubuntu and I was using vim.
I now will discuss about vim in console (iTerm2 or the default terminal) and macvim.
The problem is that some binding don't work under mac. For example I had CTRL left/right for navigating between splits, CTRL up/down to move lines or blocks of code up and down, etc. They don't work anymore.
I had a bunch of plugins (nerdtree, powerline, etc.) that now look weird. Powerline doesn't display special characters in macvim and in terminal they are question marks.
In console, nerdtree looks weird and it doesn't display the special triangle character. If I hit return to open a file selected from nerdtree, it doesn't do anything. In macvim, it works ok.
Is there any guide on how to use vim on mac? Or what is the recommended way?
Nerdtree : let g:NERDTreeDirArrows=0
Powerline : Take a look at the part of strange characters in the document https://github.com/Lokaltog/vim-powerline
Navigating within splits with Ctrl + arrows work on mine. Can you post your vimrc, or try running vim without any configuration.
Ctrl+arrows to move lines and block doesn't work on mine.
Did you check which key was sent by your terminal to vim ?
Did you tried to set it manually ?
I had similar problems with emacs, including one keybinding I'm still not able to reproduce :(
I have the exact same config on my Mac and a Windows box at work, my Ubuntu box at home and a couple of VPSes. It works exactly the same on every platform in GVim/MacVim or in plain Vim.
Unfortunately I don't use either NERDTree nor Powerline but Vdt's answer seems to have all the info needed.
Some of the behaviors you describe are custom mappings. You should show us your ~/.vimrc (the old one on linux and the new one on the Mac, if there are differences) so that we can help you make it more portable.
Also, "looks weird" means nothing: please add a screenshot or two.
