This ZSH theme is based heavily on an excellent blog entry from Phil Gold. In his blog entry Phil explains detailed how his ZSH theme is working and I can only strongly recommend it to everyone who wants to modify or even generate a new ZSH theme.

This ZSH theme has the following features (from left to right and from top to bottom):

• Indication of user, hostname & terminal. Enhanced visual indication if the user is root.
• Git branch and status.
• Activated Python virtual environment.
• Current Ruby interpreter (not shown in the screenshot).
• Current working directory.
• Visual indication of the shell return value.
• Numeric indication of the shell return value.
• Status of the power management.
• Time and date.

Put aperiodic.zsh-theme in your ~/.oh-my-zsh/custom/themes directory, then in your ~/.zshrc file:

ZSH_THEME="aperiodic"
