zsh 4.2.5 does not re-evaluate the prompt string when the window size changes. When the window size changes, it seems to me that zle should know about it, and redisplay the prompt appropriately. Most of the two line prompts get very screwed up on a window resize, and you have to hit enter for them to behave again. There's another closely related issue that's bugging me, which I don't have a fix for. When the window is resized, zsh keeps moving the prompt down a line at a time. This isn't a big deal, except that it often ends up causing the display to scroll up so that I can't see anything but the messed up prompt bits on screen. Is it necessary to do this when the display is updated? Is there a way to prevent it without messing everything else up? I've looked at zrefresh for a couple of hours, but I'm completely confused by it. -Dan
