Minimalistic .zshrc configuration file designed to provide all the necessary settings for a comfortable terminal experience

• Multi-Line Prompt: The prompt is divided into three lines for better readability. The first line separates the previous command's output from the prompt, the second line provides detailed path information, and the third line is for input.
• Multiple Prompt Levels: Configurations for secondary and tertiary prompt levels (PS2 and PS3) are included.
• SSH Status Indicator: Displays an indicator when an SSH connection is established.
• VCS (Version Control System) Integration: Supports Git, SVN, and Mercurial for showing branch and repository status directly in the prompt.
  • Git Integration: Shows branch name, staged and unstaged changes, and untracked files.
  • SVN and Mercurial Integration: Shows branch name and repository status.
• Completion Enhancements: Advanced completion settings, including menu completion, caching, and various completion styles and formats.
• LS_COLORS Configuration: Configures LS_COLORS for both BSD and GNU systems to enhance directory listings.
• LESS and MAN Configuration: Customizes the behavior and appearance of less and man pages.

These features make ultima.zsh-theme a powerful and versatile theme for Z shell users, enhancing both functionality and aesthetics.

For the best experience, use the Ghostty terminal together with the Guezwhoz color scheme.

Guezwhoz is a balanced dark color scheme designed with a focus on visual comfort and readability.
The theme meets the WCAG 2.1 AA accessibility standard and is based on the principles of analogous color harmony, providing a pleasant, cohesive color experience during long terminal sessions.

For Ghostty and Wezterm users:
Set the color scheme to guezwhoz in your terminal configuration. Guezwhoz is bundled by default with Ghostty and Wezterm—no additional installation required.

For other terminals:
You can install the Guezwhoz theme from the @mbadolato/iTerm2-Color-Schemes repository.

These recommendations ensure optimal appearance and compatibility for this project. Using other terminals or color schemes may result in a different visual experience.

Not all fonts include the U+203A Unicode character (Single Right-Pointing Angle Quotation Mark). Unless your system font supports this character, install one of the standard fonts, such as Arial, Consolas, or Impact.

For comfortable work, I recommend JetBrains Mono.
This font already includes all the characters used in the theme and is ideal for full compatibility.
