how to make information on a separate line and the command on a new line in zsh?

Question

I used zsh as my command line.

In my zsh, there is too much information (file path, git status) displayed, so that there is very little space for the commands that can be entered on each line.Enclosed by the red rectangle is the space where I can enter commands.

But I don't want to remove the displayed information. Can I make the information on a separate line and the command on a new line when every time hit the enter?

when i echo $PROMPT , the result is:

%m %{${fg_bold[blue]}%}:: %{$reset_color%}%{${fg[green]}%}%3~ $(git_prompt_info)%{${fg_bold[$CARETCOLOR]}%}»%{${reset_color}%} 

Answer 1

Your current bash PROMPT is;

%m %{${fg_bold[blue]}%}:: %{$reset_color%}%{${fg[green]}%}%3~ $(git_prompt_info)%{${fg_bold[$CARETCOLOR]}%}»%{${reset_color}%} 

Lets add some newlines ( $'\n' ) between those values;

export PROMPT="%m %{${fg_bold[blue]}%}::"$'\n'"%{$reset_color%}%{${fg[green]}%}%3~ "$'\n'"$(git_prompt_info)%{${fg_bold[$CARETCOLOR]}%}»%{${reset_color}%}"

On my local zsh PROMPT this generates:
