Current Behavior
I leave my MacBook plugged in most of the time, so to preserve battery health macOS pauses charging at 80%.
In the starship battery widget it shows the unknown_symbol when in this state.
Expected Behavior
It would be great if this is a known state and I could choose a different symbol for this specific case.
Environment
- Starship version: 1.24.1
- Shell type: zsh
- Shell version: 5.9
- Shell plugin manager: antidote
