Setting prompt to sorin disconnects my shell

[aliostad]

Hi,

I have been using your great work through yadr and happily using sorin as my default prompt (and I love it). This has been working fine for me but today I was setting up a new Linux box and changing the default prompt (by editing zzzz_after.zsh in ~yadr/zsh) or creating a new file in .zsh.after and my zsh seems to be crashing and I get disconnected from the ssh.

As I said, this was working fine in previous machines I have set up. I am no linux god or anything like it, happy to report back any log, etc you need.

Thanks for a great project.

PS: I tried oliver and it worked. It seems it is only sorin (ironic isn't it) which has a problem.

Sorry no solution have been found yet. Can anybody respond?

I have the same issue. It only happens over SSH. It appears to be related to the async process. It seems that the "zle reset-prompt" command is crashing my SSH session for some reason.

UPDATE: This is the same issue - zsh-users/zsh-autosuggestions#126
A workaround is to change the 'zle reset-prompt' command to 'zle .reset-prompt'

Same problem when using sorin in Visual Studio Code Integrated Terminal. And @meastes 's suggested workaround worked for me.

Are you still seeing this with the latest changes? We've updated how the async process works with the sorin prompt.
