I'm a big fan of the Powerline on vim and on shells too, but I can't find a way to use it on cmder.
https://github.com/powerline/powerline
https://github.com/milkbikis/powerline-shell
I assume that, since cmder shows the git branch that I'm currently on and the lambda symbol, there must be some way to change the "PS1" (referencing the bash variable, not the powershell file, the place where it says the dir where I'm on). Could someone point me where to go? I'd love to make a new pull request or wiki entry on how to add powerline to cmder
PS.: I know it's possible to install on cygwin, but that's not what I want, I want cmd.exe running powerline
The prompt for a cmd.exe shell running under Cmder is configured by the script cmderconfigcmder.lua.
Lua script configuration is a feature of clink (http://mridgers.github.io/clink/), which Cmder includes. I'm not sure powerline is possible here, since ultimately that lua script is just setting the Windows cmd.exe PROMPT variable. But you could ask over at the clink project, perhaps.
Thanks! I'll sure look into it

Haven't tried yet, but sounds promising.
With the recent Windows 10 update, you can now use bash and get zsh, oh-my-zsh , and some Powerline fonts. I have some notes in a gist on how I accomplished it.

I'll be using fish when this feature lands for everyone (currently only insiders get it).
As a note:

It was actually released this week and anyone can be an insider. They just need to configure theire system to participate.
Yeah but not on corporate Windows versions :)

True. Was not thinking of Windows 10 for corporate use.
I am currently working on my own hack.
I was able to do it with zsh using Microsoft's Unix Subsystem, but there really is no need for it.
