## Philosophy
`promptless` follows the [suckless philosophy](https://suckless.org/philosophy/) and is simple by design. The codebase has a focus on elegance and clarity. The prompt is entirely hackable. Unnecessary and unworthy features need to be patched in.
## Installation
**Secure and Safe**
```sh
curl "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dylanaraps/promptless/master/install.sh" | sh
```
**Webscale**
```sh
npm install promptless
```
**Run with Docker**
```sh
docker build -t promptless .
docker run -it promptless
```
**Distros**
- Arch: `promptless` in the AUR.
**Manual**
```sh
# Inside your .bashrc, .zshrc, etc.
. /path/to/promptless.sh
```
## Tests
Run `./test.sh` to run unit tests on `promptless`.
**NOTE**: The testing framework requires `bash` since it's **ROBUST**.
## Hacking
An array of intelligent patches are available in the `patches/` subdirectory. Patches for color support are not available as just like scroll-back, colors are bloat.
## Compile time options
You can customize the prompt character at compile time.
```sh
make CHAR=">"
```
