This is the goal. You should be able to switch from Powerlevel9k to Powerlevel10k with no
visible changes except for performance. There are, however, several differences.
* By default only git vcs backend is enabled in Powerlevel10k. If you need svn and hg, you'll
need to set `POWERLEVEL9K_VCS_BACKENDS`.
* Fewer configuration options can be changed after the theme is loaded. For example, if you
decide to change background color of some segment in the middle of an interactive ZSH session,
it may not work.
If you notice any other differences between prompts in Powerlevel9k and Powerlevel10k when running
with the same settings, please [open an issue](https://github.com/romkatv/powerlevel10k/issues).
### I am getting an error: "zsh: bad math expression: operand expected at end of string"
Did you change any `POWERLEVEL9K` options after the first prompt got rendered, perhaps by editing
your `~/.zshrc` and executing `source ~/.zshrc`? This isn't supported. You'll need to restart zsh
for configuration changes to take effect. Run `exec zsh` to do this without forking a process.
- By default only `git` vcs backend is enabled in Powerlevel10k. If you need `svn` and `hg`, you'll
need to set `POWERLEVEL9K_VCS_BACKENDS`.
- Powerlevel10k is bug-compatible with Powerlevel9k except for egregious bugs. If you accidentally
rely on these bugs, your prompt will differ between Powerlevel9k and Powerlevel10k. Some examples:
- Powerlevel9k doesn't respect `ZLE_RPROMPT_INDENT`. As a result, right prompt in Powerlevel10k
can have an extra space compared to Powerlevel9k. Set `ZLE_RPROMPT_INDENT=0` if you don't want
that space.
- Powerlevel9k ignores some options that are set after the theme is sources while Powerlevel10k
respects all options. If you see different icons in Powerlevel9k and Powerlevel10k, you've
probably defined `POWERLEVEL9K_MODE` before sourcing the theme. This parameter gets ignored
by Powerlevel9k but not Powerlevel10k. If you want your prompt to look in Powerlevel10k the same
was as in Powerlevel9k, remove `POWERLEVEL9K_MODE`.
- There are
[dozens more bugs](https://github.com/Powerlevel9k/powerlevel9k/issues/created_by/romkatv) in
Powerlevel9k that don't exist in Powerlevel10k.
If you notice any other changes in prompt appearance when switching from Powerlevel9k to
Powerlevel10k, please [open an issue](https://github.com/romkatv/powerlevel10k/issues).
