I'm looking for different examples of custom Powershell prompt function implementations. If you have a custom implementation of your own please post the script. Links to existing resources are good as well.
Bonus points for posting a screenshot of what your prompt actually looks like (a preview).
Here's mine:
function prompt {
# our theme
$cdelim = [ConsoleColor]::DarkCyan
$chost = [ConsoleColor]::Green
$cloc = [ConsoleColor]::Cyan
write-host "$([char]0x0A7) " -n -f $cloc
write-host ([net.dns]::GetHostName()) -n -f $chost
write-host ' {' -n -f $cdelim
write-host (shorten-path (pwd).Path) -n -f $cloc
write-host '}' -n -f $cdelim
return ' '
}
It uses this helper function:
function shorten-path([string] $path) {
$loc = $path.Replace($HOME, '~')
# remove prefix for UNC paths
$loc = $loc -replace '^[^:]+::', ''
# make path shorter like tabs in Vim,
# handle paths starting with \\ and . correctly
return ($loc -replace '\\(\.?)([^\\])[^\\]*(?=\\)','\$1$2')
}
