NAME

       powerline - Powerline prompt and statusline script.

SYNOPSIS

          powerline EXT [SIDE] [-rMODULE] [-wWIDTH] [--last-exit-code=INT]
                    [--last-pipe-status=LIST] [--jobnum=INT]
                    [-cKEY.KEY=VALUE]… [-tTHEME.KEY.KEY=VALUE]… [-RKEY=VAL]…
                    [-pPATH]… [--socket=ADDRESS]

DESCRIPTION

       EXT    Extension:  application  for  which powerline command is launched (usually shell or
              tmux). Also supports wm. extensions: wm.awesome.

       SIDE   Side: left and right represent left and right side respectively, above emits  lines
              that  are  supposed  to  be  printed  just  above  the prompt and aboveleft is like
              concatenating above with left with the exception that only one Python  instance  is
              used in this case. May be omitted for wm.* extensions.

       -r, --renderer-module MODULE
              Renderer  module.  Usually something like .bash or .zsh (with leading dot) which is
              powerline.renderers.{ext}{MODULE}, may also be full module name  (must  contain  at
              least   one   dot   or  end  with  a  dot  in  case  it  is  top-level  module)  or
              powerline.renderers submodule (in case there are no dots).

       -w, --width WIDTH
              Maximum prompt with. Triggers truncation of some segments.

       --last-exit-code INT
              Last exit code.

       --last-pipe-status LIST
              Like  above,  but  is  supposed  to  contain  space-separated  array  of  statuses,
              representing exit statuses of commands in one pipe.

       --jobnum INT
              Number of jobs.

       -c, --config-override KEY.KEY=VALUE
              Configuration  overrides  for config.json. Is translated to a dictionary and merged
              with the dictionary obtained  from  actual  JSON  configuration:  KEY.KEY=VALUE  is
              translated to {"KEY": {"KEY": VALUE}} and then merged recursively. VALUE may be any
              JSON value, values that are not null, true, false,  start  with  digit,  {,  [  are
              treated like strings. If VALUE is omitted then corresponding key is removed.

       -t, --theme-override THEME.KEY.KEY=VALUE
              Like above, but theme-specific. THEME should point to an existing and used theme to
              have any effect, but it is fine to use any theme here.

       -R, --renderer-arg KEY=VAL
              Like above, but provides argument for renderer. Is supposed  to  be  used  only  by
              shell  bindings  to  provide  various  data like last-exit-code or last-pipe-status
              (they are not using --renderer-arg for historical resons: --renderer-arg was  added
              later).

       -p, --config-path PATH
              Path  to  configuration  directory.  If it is present then configuration files will
              only be seeked in the provided path. May be provided multiple times to search in  a
              list of directories.

       --socket ADDRESS
              Socket  address to use in daemon clients. Is always UNIX domain socket on linux and
              file socket on Mac OS X. Not used here, present only for compatibility  with  other
              powerline  clients.  This  argument  must  always be the first one and be in a form
              --socket ADDRESS: no = or short form  allowed  (in  other  powerline  clients,  not
              here).

       -h, --help
              Display help and exit.
