Getting error: no such pty command: _async_test

[rcdailey]

I'm following this guide for using ZSH on Windows via MINGW64. My .zshrc looks like this:

source ~/antigen.zsh
antigen use oh-my-zsh
antigen bundle mafredri/zsh-async
antigen bundle sindresorhus/pure
antigen bundle zsh-users/zsh-completions
antigen apply

I get these errors:

(zpty):zpty:12: can't open pseudo terminal: bad file descriptor
async_init:zpty:14: no such pty command: _async_test
/c/Users/robert/Nextcloud/Development/Home/Robert/.antigen/bundles/sindresorhus/pure/pure.zsh: line 566: prompt${^prompt_opts[@]}: bad substitution

How do I get past this error?

Looks like a duplicate of #210 Pure is not officially supported on Windows, so you're on your own.

Thanks for the information. I will move back to bash then.

@rcdailey if you still want to give it a chance you might be interested in #439 (comment). Given it has had some success Pure might get Windows compatibility via a zsh-async update in the future, but I can’t make any promises 😅.
