**A modern prompt manager for the [Fish][] shell.**

- **Out of the box:** With four compelling styles and myriad options, you can have your out-of-the-box cake and customize it too.
- **Flexible:** Move content around, remove it, or add it back, all without ever touching the code.
- **Powerful:** Impress all your Fish friends with alien technologies like a multi-line right prompt.
- **Extensible:** Create custom content with simple fish functions that integrate seamlessly.

### Flexible

Tide uses "[items][]", small functions that create the prompt contents. Using the `items` list for each side of the prompt, you have full control of where and which items display.

### Multi-Line Right Prompt

> Fish can't do _that_ yet can it!

Tide takes care of all the multi-line logic and printing for you. All you have to do is add the special `newline` item.

### Extensible

If there isn't an item that fits your needs you can make your own (and hopefully submit a pull request) or ask for it to be made by opening an issue.

### Pure Emulation

Tide can easily produce the same prompt as [Pure][]. Run `tide configure` and select the Pure style.

You can still take advantage of all of Tide's features while using the Pure style, though the style does display less information by default.

## Fonts

### Meslo Nerd Font

Gorgeous monospace font designed by Jim Lyles for Bitstream, customized for Apple, enhanced by André Berg, and finally patched by Roman Perepelitsa of [Powerlevel10k][] with scripts originally developed by Ryan McIntyre of [Nerd Fonts][]. Contains all the glyphs and symbols that Tide may need. Battle-tested in dozens of different terminals on all major operating systems.

### Font Installation

Download these four ttf files:

- [MesloLGS NF Regular.ttf][]
- [MesloLGS NF Bold.ttf][]
- [MesloLGS NF Italic.ttf][]
- [MesloLGS NF Bold Italic.ttf][]

Open each file and click "Install". This will make the `MesloLGS NF` font available to all applications on your system. Configure your terminal to use this font.
