pip install --user --editable path/to/powerline
I am suffering bad lags before displaying shell prompt
------------------------------------------------------
To get rid of these lags there currently are two options:
* Run ``powerline-daemon``. Powerline does not automatically start it for you.
* Compile and install ``libzpython`` module that lives in
https://bitbucket.org/ZyX_I/zpython. This variant is zsh-specific.
Prompt is spoiled after completing files in ksh
-----------------------------------------------
This is exactly why powerline has official mksh support, but not official ksh
support. If you know the solution feel free to share it in `powerline bug
tracker`_.
When using z powerline shows wrong number of jobs
-------------------------------------------------
This happens because `z <https://github.com/rupa/z>`_ is launching some jobs in
the background from ``$POWERLINE_COMMAND`` and these jobs fail to finish before
powerline prompt is run.
Solution to this problem is simple: be sure that :file:`z.sh` is sourced
strictly after :file:`powerline/bindings/bash/powerline.sh`. This way background
jobs are spawned by `z <https://github.com/rupa/z>`_ after powerline has done
its job.
Vim issues

* Alternative: set :ref:`ambiwidth <config-common-ambiwidth>` to 2, remove fancy
dividers (they suck when ``ambiwidth`` is set to double).
