          The Agnoster theme which you're using requires a patched font that contains some special symbols to display properly. Excerpt from its README:




          NOTE: In all likelihood, you will need to install a Powerline-patched font for this theme to render correctly.




          Switch to a font with Powerline support to solve this. I'm using Hack, it's Powerline-compatible out of the box, no patching required.



          Font can be changed in VS Code settings.

            Try to issue the following:



            unsetopt PROMPT_SP


            This option is explained in man zshoptions as follows (highlighting is mine):




            Attempt to preserve a partial line (i.e. a line that did not end with
            a newline) that would otherwise be covered up by the command
            prompt due to the PROMPT_CR option. This works by outputting some
            cursor-control characters, including a series of spaces, that should
            make the terminal wrap to the next line when a partial line is
            present (note that this is only successful if your terminal has
            automatic margins, which is typi‐ cal).



            When a partial line is preserved, by default you will see an
            inverse+bold character at the end of the partial line: a %
            for a normal user
            or a # for root. If set, the shell parameter
            PROMPT_EOL_MARK can be used to customize how the end of partial lines
            are shown.



            NOTE: if the PROMPT_CR option is not set, enabling this option will
            have no effect. This option is on by default.
