# A plugin to shrink directory paths for brevity and pretty-printing
## Examples
For this directory tree:
```
/home/
me/
foo/
bar/
quux/
biz/ # The prefix b is ambiguous between bar and biz.
```
here are the results of calling `shrink_path <option> /home/me/foo/bar/quux`:
```
Option Result
<none> /h/m/f/ba/q
-l|--last /h/m/f/ba/quux
-s|--short /h/m/f/b/q
-t|--tilde ~/f/ba/q
-f|--fish ~/f/b/quux
```
## Usage
For a fish-style working directory in your command prompt, add the following to
your theme or zshrc:
```
setopt prompt_subst
PS1='%n@%m $(shrink_path -f)>'
```
The following options are available:
```
-f, --fish fish simulation, equivalent to -l -s -t.
-l, --last Print the last directory's full name.
-s, --short Truncate directory names to the first character. Without
-s, names are truncated without making them ambiguous.
-t, --tilde Substitute ~ for the home directory.
-T, --nameddirs Substitute named directories as well.
```
The long options can also be set via zstyle, like
```
zstyle :prompt:shrink_path fish yes
```
Note: Directory names containing two or more consecutive spaces are not yet
supported.
