It doesn't wrap if the number of characters exceeds columns of terminal about spacefish

[Snuggle]

Interesting, two quick-questions to start:

Where does the Pure prompt implement this text wrapping? How many other terminal prompts wrap in a similar fashion?

Hi! Hmm... I really don't familiar with fish shell, so I couldn't find. and I've not checked other themes except Pure, but I can check the other ones when I have much time.

[Snuggle]

Is this what you're referring to?

Hm, I can reproduce & this causes some incredibly weird behaviour. Typing exit exits the terminal emulator. I've seen this a couple of times before, but didn't know what caused it.

This completely breaks the prompt and I can't find a way to resolve it without reopening a new terminal instance.

This is actually deliberate behavior in fish: fish-shell/fish-shell#904 (comment)
There has been a proposal in a past issue to identify when text wraps and to dynamically shorten or split the prompt based on the width of the terminal. I'd consider it if that's what zsh does natively.

[Snuggle]

It completely breaks the fish instance though? Commands like ls stop working entirely afterwards?

[matchai]

Oof. Yeah, didn't expect that to happen. 😰
Unfortunately, this still appears to be an upstream issue, being able to reproduce it without spacefish installed:

Is there a workaround we could make to get around this issue? I've had it myself a few times and just ended up opening a new terminal instance instead.

I think anything we end up doing here would be hacky and this would best be addressed by the fish team, unless we decide to make the theme dynamically resizing based on $COLUMNS.

Closing this as it's not an issue in spacefish, but feel free to keep the conversation going. 😄
