From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Hello! I have changed my PROMPT variable for bash and zsh in the following:

TRIANGLE=$'\uE0B0'
COLOR_1="#089B89"
COLOR_2="#FCFCFC"
COLOR_3="#3B4045"
PROMPT="%K{$COLOR_1} %n@%M%F{$COLOR_1}%K{$COLOR_2}$TRIANGLE%F{$COLOR_1} %~%F{$COLOR_2}%K{$COLOR_3}$TRIANGLE%f%k " #%K{#1BA58A}%F{black}$TRIANGLE

and I'm using the Noto Sans Mono fonts, but this happens on other fonts as well.

How can I get rid of the white lines before the triangle? should I use a specific font?

Very strange. I wonder if it's not a font glyph issue but a font-width issue or something. Beyond getting Nerd Fonts I'm not sure what else to try, sorry!

I tried installing xfce4-terminal, and there it is displayed well with any font, so I guess it's a Konsole problem... I'll try to ask in the KDE community, thanks for your help!
