With the latest version of rvm it seems there is a bug with the PROMPT in some themes that causes the text RVM_PROJECT_PATH to show.

Please see rvm/rvm#3091 for more details.

partially addressed in #3244
If this is the result of an upstream zsh bug and/or zsh syntax deprecations, then it seems the best way to address is to update all our prompts (& themes) to use non-buggy / non-deprecated syntax.

Hmm, I am now also seeing this in the title of iTerm2 even though I edited the prompt statement for my theme. I'm not sure what that says about the type of issue this is, or where the correct place to fix it would be, but just thought I'd share.

Indeed. I see the same in my terminal titles (rxvt and gnome-terminal). I'm sure there is a setting somewhere in a given terminal's configuration, but I haven't bothered to dig in to that yet.

Hi both, this is a feature in oh-my-zsh that changes the title to the command running while it's running, and the current working directory when there is no command running. You can find the causing lines in the lib/termsupport.zsh file.

As you can see, $ZSH_THEME_TERM_TAB_TITLE_IDLE and $ZSH_THEME_TERM_TITLE_IDLE both use the %~ sequence, so you have to change that the same way you changed your prompts: with either %1/ or %C. You can override these variables in your zshrc file (at the end of it), or change it directly on the terminal to see how it affects the title (i.e. ZSH_THEME_TERM_TAB_TITLE_IDLE="Terminal"will say Terminal in the title).
