ASCII Character problem?

[jondkinney]

Hi there,

Trying out flootty to pair with some folks and received this error anytime I try to do anything. I'm sure it's because of the characters I have in my zsh prompt... but tons of people have similar customizations. Any way flootty could support them?

Thanks!

You have permission to write to this terminal. Remember: With great power comes great responsibility.
So yea
zsh: command not found: So

Removing my git prompt status indicators and leading prompt indicator have fixed this issue, but again, it'd be great if those could be supported!
