Please see the symptoms and discussion at https://github.com/sorin-ionescu/oh-my-zsh/issues/151.

Inviting @mpapis into this issue since I hear that he is the RVM Zsh guy.

I see no information that could help me to understand the problem, can you provide the working and broken outputs? in worst case a screenshot would work too.

Can you also link me to the mentioned ruby plugin so I can check it's code - maybe that could give me an idea why they break together.

Here is a link to the ruby plugin:
https://github.com/sorin-ionescu/oh-my-zsh/blob/master/modules/ruby/init.zsh

And here is a link to the prompt that is messing up:
https://github.com/sorin-ionescu/oh-my-zsh/blob/master/modules/prompt/functions/prompt_sorin_setup

It seems like the code in the prompt setup isn't getting executed and is showing up in the prompt itself. It looks like this:

~${git_info:+${(e)git_info[prompt]}} ❯                                                                                                                                           ${editor_info[keymap]}${editor_info[overwrite]}${VIM:+" V"}${git_info[rprompt]}

@jonathan Thank you. That information was in the comments of the linked issue.

@mpapis RVM is either escaping the prompt somewhere or printing it as is, neither of which is desirable behaviour.

I believe this is related to issue #923, which I just created.
