Changes since the last release
Wizard
Configuration wizard now reacts to terminal size changes in real time and can function at much smaller terminal dimensions.
Configs with prompt_char now have vi_mode disabled by default.
Generated configs now unset DEFAULT_USER.
Classic and Rainbow configs now set POWERLEVEL9K_MULTILINE_NEWLINE_PROMPT_GAP_BACKGROUND. This makes it easier to define 3-line prompt.
New parameters
If POWERLEVEL9K_CONFIG_FILE is set, configuration wizard will write configs to the specified location instead of the default ${ZDOTDIR:-~}/.p10k.zsh.
gitstatus
Support older macOS versions (at least El Capitan; even older versions might work).
Support Linux on armv6, i386 and i686.
Support cygwin and msys2 on i686.
macOS builds now use iconv from Homebrew.
gitstatusd binaries are now being built with https://github.com/romkatv/gitstatus/blob/release/mbuild.
Misc
The default icon for proxy segment is now ↔ instead of ⮂. The old icon is missing in many fonts.
Bug fixes
gitstatus once again works on 64-bit Linux without glibc.
Instant prompt no longer gets gradually slower over time when XDG_HOME_CACHE is on a slow filesystem.
Instant prompt no longer prints spurious erros when XDG_HOME_CACHE is on NTFS.
The old-style (and discouraged) custom prompts now work on zsh 5.3.1.
Configuration wizard once again presents "extra icons" and "fluent prompt" options when using 12-hour time format.

New and changed parameters:
Two additional parameters are available in gcloud: P9K_GCLOUD_CONFIGURATION and P9K_GCLOUD_PROJECT_NAME.
gcloud segment can now be in two states: PARTIAL and COMPLETE. See documentation.
Wizard:
The screen asking whether to display current time now offers a choice between two formats: 24-hour and 12-hour.
os_icon is no longer bold.
Slanted and flat separators are now using glyphs from Box Drawing Unicode block. They should look much better in fonts with correctly sized Box Drawing glyphs.
gcloud now displays project name instead of project id whenever possible.
Bug fixes:
Powerlevel10k no longer resolves symbolic links when calling commands that might act differently depending on argv[0].
java_version now works properly when using AdoptOpenJDK.
Misc:
Arch Linux users can now install Powerlevel10k with pacman. See instructions.
There is a new version of MesloLGS NF (the recommended font) with better alignment of powerline glyphs and 44% larger icons (by area). iTerm2 users can upgrade by typing p10k configure. Users of other terminals can follow manual installation instructions.
Changes since the last release
New prompt segments:
package: shows npm name and version from package.json (disabled by default).
New and changed parameters:
P9K_OS_ICON: set by Powerlevel10k on initialization; can be used in user-defined prompt segments and *_EXPANSION parameters.
POWERLEVEL9K_ICON_PADDING: when set to moderate, some icons will have an extra space after them. This is meant to avoid icon overlap when using non-monospace fonts. When set to none, spaces are not added.
Performance improvement:
detect_virt prompt segment is now 50% faster.
Bug fixes:
Many terminal escape sequences are now terminated with BEL instead of ST. BEL is the standard terminator according to ECMA-48 §8.3.89 but Konsole doesn't understand it. Thankfully, all terminals appear to understand BEL as extension.
Superfluous spaces have been removed from vcs segment when using a monospace font and not using my_git_formatter.
Wizard:
Generated configs now set POWERLEVEL9K_ICON_PADDING in favor of *_VISUAL_IDENTIFIER_EXPANSION. The value of this parameters depends on the answers to the first few questions that concern terminal font capabilities.
Generated configs no longer attempt to work around misconfigured locale. The workarounds in Powerlevel10k proper are sufficient.
gitstatus:
Fix a regression on Linux systems where uname doesn't understand -o.
Fix a regression on Cygwin and MinGW when running on older versions of Windows.
Fix a bug that can result in occasional gitstatus initialization failure on WSL when using Powerlevel10k with Instant Prompt.
