Description Debarshi Ray 2021-11-25 18:03:05 UTC 
When Z shell is run as a login shell, /etc/zshrc unconditionally overwrites the PROMPT after the scripts in /etc/profile.d have been sourced. This prevents Toolbox from prefixing a hexagon indicator to the prompt like it does for Bash.

It might be nicer if /etc/zshrc overwrote the PROMPT only it's set to Z shell's built-in default of '%m%# ', just like it's done in /etc/bashrc.
