Char char
char is a section responsible for rendering a prompt character. By default, Spaceship uses ➜ as a prompt character.
When the previous command was executed successfully, the prompt character is green (SPACESHIP_CHAR_COLOR_SUCCESS). Otherwise, if the previous command exited with non-zero code, the prompt character is red (SPACESHIP_CHAR_COLOR_FAILURE).
Changing prompt character for the root user
By default, Spaceship doesn't change prompt character when executing commands as a root user. You can change the custom root prompt by setting a SPACESHIP_CHAR_SYMBOL_ROOT option.
