command syntax error leaves a symbol spaced far to the right in the command entry field.

Describe the bug

If you mistype a command or cancel a process running in the window (e.g. a dev server for django, next.js, etc), a symbol artifact is left spaced far to the right of the field to enter the next command. This article, and the line of spaces, then need to be removed to enter the next command.

I'm using an M1 Macbook Air with OhMyZSH installed.

To Reproduce

1. Open a new terminal instance
2. Mistype a command and press enter
3. Line for the next command has symbol on the far right which needs to be removed along with the blank space before entering the next command.

Expected behaviour

After an error in typing a command, the error is displayed in the block and the line for the next command in cleared and fresh with no need to remove any symbols or blank space.

Screenshots

Operating System

MacOS

OS Version

13.0.1

Shell Version

zsh with OhMyZSH installed

Warp Version

v0.2022.11.14.14.55.stable_01

Additional context

It is very frustrating to have to delete the symbol and clear all the blank space before entering the next command, especially after cancelling a dev server which I do frequently. It is frustrating enough that I many times use the default Terminal app on my mac, or another terminal emulator such as Hyper instead. Warp has the best features by far, but this particular issue is too much of a nuisance.

Does this block you from using Warp daily?

Yes

Hi, I'm Danny, a Support Engineer at Warp.

My guess is that you normally have a custom prompt, theme, or plugin and Warp is unable to parse it. It's most likely a right-sided or multi-line prompt

You can check whether it’s something in your dotfiles by setting up clean configs: Run echo 'ZDOTDIR=/' > ~/.zshenv This forces Zsh to run with zero configs.

You can disable parts of your dotfiles just for Warp by using this conditional statement:

if [[ $TERM_PROGRAM != "WarpTerminal" ]]; then
##### WHAT YOU WANT TO DISABLE FOR WARP - BELOW

# Whatever you want to disable

##### WHAT YOU WANT TO DISABLE FOR WARP - ABOVE
fi

@jordan-root-dev Thanks for the bug report! I've submitted a fix for this (a bug with our handling of right-side prompts), which should go live in next week's Warp release (no release this week due to the Thanksgiving holiday in the US).

[jordan-root-dev]

That’s awesome! Thanks so much and I’m really impressed with the turn around time.
