Description

The Set-PSReadLineOption cmdlet customizes the behavior of the PSReadLine module when you're editing the command line. To view the PSReadLine settings, use Get-PSReadLineOption.

The options set by this command only apply to the current session. To persist any options, add them to a profile script. For more information, see about_Profiles and Customizing your shell environment.

Examples

Example 1: Set foreground and background colors

This example sets PSReadLine to display the Comment token with green foreground text on a gray background. In the escape sequence used in the example, 32 represents the foreground color and 47 represents the background color.

Set-PSReadLineOption -Colors @{ "Comment"="`e[32;47m" }

You can choose to set only a foreground text color. For example, a bright green foreground text color for the Comment token: "Comment"="`e[92m".

Example 2: Set bell style

In this example, PSReadLine will respond to errors or conditions that require user attention. The BellStyle is set to emit an audible beep at 1221 Hz for 60 ms.

Set-PSReadLineOption -BellStyle Audible -DingTone 1221 -DingDuration 60

Note

This feature may not work in all hosts on platforms.

Example 3: Set multiple options

Set-PSReadLineOption can set multiple options with a hash table.

$PSReadLineOptions = @{
    EditMode = "Emacs"
    HistoryNoDuplicates = $true
    HistorySearchCursorMovesToEnd = $true
    Colors = @{
        "Command" = "#8181f7"
    }
}
Set-PSReadLineOption @PSReadLineOptions

The $PSReadLineOptions hash table sets the keys and values. Set-PSReadLineOption uses the keys and values with @PSReadLineOptions to update the PSReadLine options.

You can view the keys and values entering the hash table name, $PSReadLineOptions on the PowerShell command line.

Example 4: Set multiple color options

This example shows how to set more than one color value in a single command.

Set-PSReadLineOption -Colors @{
  Command            = 'Magenta'
  Number             = 'DarkGray'
  Member             = 'DarkGray'
  Operator           = 'DarkGray'
  Type               = 'DarkGray'
  Variable           = 'DarkGreen'
  Parameter          = 'DarkGreen'
  ContinuationPrompt = 'DarkGray'
  Default            = 'DarkGray'
}

Example 5: Set color values for multiple types

This example shows three different methods for how to set the color of tokens displayed in PSReadLine.

Set-PSReadLineOption -Colors @{
 # Use a ConsoleColor enum
 "Error" = [ConsoleColor]::DarkRed

 # 24 bit color escape sequence
 "String" = "$([char]0x1b)[38;5;100m"

 # RGB value
 "Command" = "#8181f7"
}

Example 6: Use ViModeChangeHandler to display Vi mode changes

This example emits a cursor change VT escape in response to a Vi mode change.

function OnViModeChange {
    if ($args[0] -eq 'Command') {
        # Set the cursor to a blinking block.
        Write-Host -NoNewLine "`e[1 q"
    } else {
        # Set the cursor to a blinking line.
        Write-Host -NoNewLine "`e[5 q"
    }
}
Set-PSReadLineOption -ViModeIndicator Script -ViModeChangeHandler $Function:OnViModeChange

The OnViModeChange function sets the cursor options for the Vi modes: insert and command. ViModeChangeHandler uses the Function: provider to reference OnViModeChange as a script block object.

For more information, see about_Providers.

Example 7: Use HistoryHandler to filter commands added to history

The following example shows how to use the AddToHistoryHandler to prevent saving any git commands to history.

$ScriptBlock = {
    Param([string]$line)

    if ($line -match "^git") {
        return $false
    } else {
        return $true
    }
}

Set-PSReadLineOption -AddToHistoryHandler $ScriptBlock

The scriptblock returns $false if the command started with git. This has the same effect as returning the SkipAdding AddToHistory enum. If the command doesn't start with git, the handler returns $true and PSReadLine saves the command in history.

Example 8: Use CommandValidationHandler to validate a command before its executed

This example shows how to use the CommandValidationHandler parameter to run a validate a command before it's executed. The example specifically checks for the command git with the sub command cmt and replaces that with the full name commit. This way you can create shorthand aliases for subcommands.

# Load the namespace so you can use the [CommandAst] object type
using namespace System.Management.Automation.Language

Set-PSReadLineOption -CommandValidationHandler {
    param([CommandAst]$CommandAst)

    switch ($CommandAst.GetCommandName()) {
        'git' {
            $gitCmd = $CommandAst.CommandElements[1].Extent
            switch ($gitCmd.Text) {
                'cmt' {
                    [Microsoft.PowerShell.PSConsoleReadLine]::Replace(
                        $gitCmd.StartOffset, $gitCmd.EndOffset - $gitCmd.StartOffset, 'commit')
                }
            }
        }
    }
}
# This checks the validation script when you hit enter
Set-PSReadLineKeyHandler -Chord Enter -Function ValidateAndAcceptLine

Example 9: Using the PromptText parameter

When there's a parse error, PSReadLine changes a part of the prompt red. The PromptText parameter tells PSReadLine the part of the prompt string to make red.

For example, the following example creates a prompt that contains the current path followed by the greater-than character (>) and a space.

function prompt { "PS $pwd> " }`
Set-PSReadLineOption -PromptText '> ' # change the '>' character red
Set-PSReadLineOption -PromptText '> ', 'X ' # replace the '>' character with a red 'X'

The first string is the portion of your prompt string that you want to make red when there is a parse error. The second string is an alternate string to use for when there is a parse error.

Parameters

-AddToHistoryHandler

Specifies a ScriptBlock that controls how commands get added to PSReadLine history.

The ScriptBlock receives the command line as input.

The ScripBlock should return a member of the AddToHistoryOption enum, the string name of one of those members, or a boolean value. The list below describes the possible values and their effects.

  • MemoryAndFile - Add the command to the history file and the current session.
  • MemoryOnly - Add the command to history for the current session only.
  • SkipAdding - Don't add the command to the history file for current session.
  • $false - Same as if the value was SkipAdding.
  • $true - Same as if the value was MemoryAndFile.
Type:Func<T,TResult>[System.String,System.Object]
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-AnsiEscapeTimeout

This option is specific to Windows when input is redirected, for example, when running under tmux or screen.

With redirected input on Windows, many keys are sent as a sequence of characters starting with the escape character. It's impossible to distinguish between a single escape character followed by more characters and a valid escape sequence.

The assumption is that the terminal can send the characters faster than a user types. PSReadLine waits for this timeout before concluding that it has received a complete escape sequence.

If you see random or unexpected characters when you type, you can adjust this timeout.

Type:Int32
Position:Named
Default value:100
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-BellStyle

Specifies how PSReadLine responds to various error and ambiguous conditions.

The valid values are as follows:

  • Audible: A short beep.
  • Visual: Text flashes briefly.
  • None: No feedback.
Type:BellStyle
Position:Named
Default value:Audible
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-Colors

The Colors parameter specifies various colors used by PSReadLine.

The argument is a hash table where the keys specify the elements and the values specify the color. For more information, see about_Hash_Tables.

Colors can be either a value from ConsoleColor, for example [ConsoleColor]::Red, or a valid ANSI escape sequence. Valid escape sequences depend on your terminal. In PowerShell 5.0, an example escape sequence for red text is $([char]0x1b)[91m. In PowerShell 6 and newer, the same escape sequence is `e[91m. You can specify other escape sequences including the following types:

Two color settings were added to support customization of the ListView in PSReadLine 2.2.0:

  • ListPredictionColor - set color for the leading > character and the trailing source name, such as [History]. By default, it uses DarkYellow as the foreground color.

  • ListPredictionSelectedColor - set color for indicating a list item is selected. By default, it uses DarkBlack as the background color.

  • 256 color

  • 24-bit color

  • Foreground, background, or both

  • Inverse, bold

For more information about ANSI color codes, see the Wikipedia article ANSI escape code.

The valid keys include:

  • ContinuationPrompt: The color of the continuation prompt.
  • Emphasis: The emphasis color. For example, the matching text when searching history.
  • Error: The error color. For example, in the prompt.
  • Selection: The color to highlight the menu selection or selected text.
  • Default: The default token color.
  • Comment: The comment token color.
  • Keyword: The keyword token color.
  • String: The string token color.
  • Operator: The operator token color.
  • Variable: The variable token color.
  • Command: The command token color.
  • Parameter: The parameter token color.
  • Type: The type token color.
  • Number: The number token color.
  • Member: The member name token color.
  • InlinePrediction: The color for the inline view of the predictive suggestion.
  • ListPrediction: The color for the leading > character and prediction source name.
  • ListPredictionSelected: The color for the selected prediction in list view.
Type:Hashtable
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-CommandValidationHandler

Specifies a ScriptBlock that is called from ValidateAndAcceptLine. If an exception is thrown, validation fails and the error is reported.

Before throwing an exception, the validation handler can place the cursor at the point of the error to make it easier to fix. A validation handler can also change the command line to correct common typographical errors.

ValidateAndAcceptLine is used to avoid cluttering your history with commands that can't work.

Type:Action<T>[CommandAst]
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-CompletionQueryItems

Specifies the maximum number of completion items that are shown without prompting.

If the number of items to show is greater than this value, PSReadLine prompts yes/no before displaying the completion items.

Type:Int32
Position:Named
Default value:100
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-ContinuationPrompt

Specifies the string displayed at the beginning of the subsequent lines when multi-line input is entered. The default is double greater-than signs (>>). An empty string is valid.

Type:String
Position:Named
Default value:>>
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-DingDuration

Specifies the duration of the beep when BellStyle is set to Audible.

Type:Int32
Position:Named
Default value:50ms
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-DingTone

Specifies the tone in Hertz (Hz) of the beep when BellStyle is set to Audible.

Type:Int32
Position:Named
Default value:1221
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-EditMode

Specifies the command line editing mode. Using this parameter resets any key bindings set by Set-PSReadLineKeyHandler.

The valid values are as follows:

  • Windows: Key bindings emulate PowerShell, cmd, and Visual Studio.
  • Emacs: Key bindings emulate Bash or Emacs.
  • Vi: Key bindings emulate Vi.

Use Get-PSReadLineKeyHandler to see the key bindings for the currently configured EditMode.

Type:EditMode
Position:Named
Default value:Windows
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-ExtraPromptLineCount

Specifies the number of extra lines.

If your prompt spans more than one line, specify a value for this parameter. Use this option when you want extra lines to be available when PSReadLine displays the prompt after showing some output. For example, PSReadLine returns a list of completions.

This option is needed less than in previous versions of PSReadLine, but is useful when the InvokePrompt function is used.

Type:Int32
Position:Named
Default value:0
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-HistoryNoDuplicates

This option controls the recall behavior. Duplicate commands are still added to the history file. When this option is set, only the most recent invocation appears when recalling commands. Repeated commands are added to history to preserve ordering during recall. However, you typically don't want to see the command multiple times when recalling or searching the history.

By default, the HistoryNoDuplicates property of the global PSConsoleReadLineOptions object is set to True. To change the property value, you must specify the value of the SwitchParameter as follows: -HistoryNoDuplicates:$False. You can set back to True by using just the SwitchParameter, -HistoryNoDuplicates.

Using the following command, you can set the property value directly:

(Get-PSReadLineOption).HistoryNoDuplicates = $False

Type:SwitchParameter
Position:Named
Default value:False
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-HistorySavePath

Specifies the path to the file where history is saved. Computers running Windows or non-Windows platforms store the file in different locations. The filename is stored in a variable $($Host.Name)_history.txt, for example ConsoleHost_history.txt.

If you don't use this parameter, the default path is as follows:

Windows

  • $env:APPDATA\Microsoft\Windows\PowerShell\PSReadLine\$($Host.Name)_history.txt

non-Windows

  • $env:XDG_DATA_HOME/powershell/PSReadLine/$($Host.Name)_history.txt
  • $HOME/.local/share/powershell/PSReadLine/$($Host.Name)_history.txt
Type:String
Position:Named
Default value:A file named $($Host.Name)_history.txt in $env:APPDATA\Microsoft\Windows\PowerShell\PSReadLine on Windows and $env:XDG_DATA_HOME/powershell/PSReadLine or $HOME/.local/share/powershell/PSReadLine on non-Windows platforms
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-HistorySaveStyle

Specifies how PSReadLine saves history.

Valid values are as follows:

  • SaveIncrementally: Save history after each command is executed and share across multiple instances of PowerShell.
  • SaveAtExit: Append history file when PowerShell exits.
  • SaveNothing: Don't use a history file.

Note

If you set HistorySaveStyle to SaveNothing and then set it to SaveIncrementally later in the same session, PSReadLine saves all the commands previously run in the session.

Type:HistorySaveStyle
Position:Named
Default value:SaveIncrementally
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-HistorySearchCaseSensitive

Specifies that history searching is case-sensitive in functions like ReverseSearchHistory or HistorySearchBackward.

By default, the HistorySearchCaseSensitive property of the global PSConsoleReadLineOptions object is set to False. Using this SwitchParameter sets the property value to True. To change the property value back, you must specify the value of the SwitchParameter as follows: -HistorySearchCaseSensitive:$False.

Using the following command, you can set the property value directly:

(Get-PSReadLineOption).HistorySearchCaseSensitive = $False

Type:SwitchParameter
Position:Named
Default value:False
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-HistorySearchCursorMovesToEnd

Indicates that the cursor moves to the end of commands that you load from history by using a search. When this parameter is set to $False, the cursor remains at the position it was when you pressed the up or down arrows.

By default, the HistorySearchCursorMovesToEnd property of the global PSConsoleReadLineOptions object is set to False. Using this SwitchParameter set the property value to True. To change the property value back, you must specify the value of the SwitchParameter as follows: -HistorySearchCursorMovesToEnd:$False.

Using the following command, you can set the property value directly:

(Get-PSReadLineOption).HistorySearchCursorMovesToEnd = $False

Type:SwitchParameter
Position:Named
Default value:False
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-MaximumHistoryCount

Specifies the maximum number of commands to save in PSReadLine history.

PSReadLine history is separate from PowerShell history.

Type:Int32
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-MaximumKillRingCount

Specifies the maximum number of items stored in the kill ring.

Type:Int32
Position:Named
Default value:10
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-PredictionSource

Specifies the source for PSReadLine to get predictive suggestions.

Valid values are:

  • None - disable the predictive IntelliSense feature (default).
  • History - enable the predictive IntelliSense feature and use the PSReadLine history as the only source.
  • Plugin - enable the predictive IntelliSense feature and use the plugins (CommandPrediction) as the only source. This value was added in PSReadLine 2.2.0
  • HistoryAndPlugin - enable the predictive IntelliSense feature and use both history and plugin as the sources. This value was added in PSReadLine 2.2.0
Type:Microsoft.PowerShell.PredictionSource
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-PredictionViewStyle

Sets the style for the display of the predictive text. The default is InlineView.

  • InlineView - the style as existing today, similar as in fish shell and zsh. (default)
  • ListView - suggestions are rendered in a drop down list, and users can select using UpArrow and DownArrow.

This parameter was added in PSReadLine 2.2.0

Type:Microsoft.PowerShell.PredictionViewStyle
Position:Named
Default value:InlineView
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-PromptText

This parameter sets the value of the PromptText property. The default value is "> ".

PSReadLine analyzes your prompt function to determine how to change only the color of part of your prompt. This analysis isn't 100% reliable. Use this option if PSReadLine is changing your prompt in unexpected ways. Include any trailing whitespace.

The value of this parameter can be a single string or an array of two strings. The first string is the portion of your prompt string that you want to be changed to red when there is a parse error. The second string is an alternate string to use for when there is a parse error.

Type:String[]
Position:Named
Default value:>
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-ShowToolTips

When displaying possible completions, tooltips are shown in the list of completions.

This option is enabled by default. This option wasn't enabled by default in prior versions of PSReadLine. To disable, set this option to $False.

This parameter and option were added in PSReadLine 2.3.4.

By default, the ShowToolTips property of the global PSConsoleReadLineOptions object is set to True. Using this SwitchParameter sets the property value to True. To change the property value, you must specify the value of the SwitchParameter as follows: -ShowToolTips:$False.

Using the following command, you can set the property value directly:

(Get-PSReadLineOption).ShowToolTips = $False

Type:SwitchParameter
Position:Named
Default value:True
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-TerminateOrphanedConsoleApps

This parameter sets the TerminateOrphanedConsoleApps option to $true.

On Windows, when you press Ctrl+c to terminate a process, each process attached to a console receives a terminate signal, as opposed to just the active shell. Sometimes, when a shell has launched some large tree of child processes, (imagine a build system, for example) some processes may exit, leaving multiple processes concurrently trying to consume console input.

When setting the TerminateOrphanedConsoleApps option to $true, PSReadLine records the list of processes that are currently attached to the console. Afterwards, whenever PSReadLine runs, it will get a new list of processes attached to the console, and terminate those that aren't in the original list.

This parameter and option were added in PSReadLine 2.3.4.

Type:SwitchParameter
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-ViModeChangeHandler

When the ViModeIndicator is set to Script, the script block provided will be invoked every time the mode changes. The script block is provided one argument of type ViMode.

This parameter was introduced in PowerShell 7.

Type:ScriptBlock
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-ViModeIndicator

This option sets the visual indicator for the current Vi mode. Either insert mode or command mode.

The valid values are as follows:

  • None: There's no indicator.
  • Prompt: The prompt changes color.
  • Cursor: The cursor changes size.
  • Script: User-specified text is printed.
Type:ViModeStyle
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-WordDelimiters

Specifies the characters that delimit words for functions like ForwardWord or KillWord.

Type:String
Position:Named
Default value:;:,.[]{}()/\|^&*-=+'"---
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

Inputs

None

You can't pipe objects to this cmdlet.

Outputs

None

This cmdlet returns no output.
