The information in the prompt is very helpful, though it could be
slightly reduced by not including the status of certain items. Skip the
"on/off" info in the path. You might also try to shorten the path after
a certain level, by dropping items from the beginning. Personally, I'd
always prefer an informative prompt to a status line above the prompt.

Btw. I love the help system, it's perfect! Very impressive work!

Best wishes,
