Linux Desktop on Apple Silicon in Practice

NOTE: Time flies, and it's been almost five years(!) since I wrote this. Beaware the text below is now outdated (e.g., now Asahi Linux has graphics acceleration even better than this). The commands listed are up-to-date.

I bought M1 MacBook Air. It is the fastest computer I have, and I have been a GNOME/GNU/Linux user for long time. It is obvious conclusion that I need practical Linux desktop environment on Apple Silicon.

How to use this segment

2. source the file in zshrc before sourcing p10k
3. replace vcs_info with gitstatus in p10k.zsh (usually located at ~/.p10k.zsh)

How does it work

See the excellently documented async.zsh from zsh-autosuggestions for low-level implementation. TLDR: Use process substitution to spawn a zsh instance that executes the main checking logic in the prompt's rendering function and immediately returns. Since the output of the process is connected to a fd of the parent process, we can then use zle's monitor feature to attach a callback function to said fd. After the gawk script finishes and starts to print to the fd
