+## Pathfmt plugin
+
+This plugin adds current path information (ex: `~/Downloads/images/...`) into your terminal.
+
+To use it, add `pathfmt` to the plugins array of your zshrc file:
+```
+plugins=(... pathfmt ...)
+```
+
+### Configuration (required)
+Add these into your zshrc file:
+```
+#options = absolute/user/host
+PATHFMT_MODE="user"
+RPROMPT='$(path_format)'
+```
+
+
+
+### Things to Note:
+`PATHFMT_MODE` has three modes:
+```
+1. absolute - full path (from /).
+2. user - path from $USER/
+3. host - user@machine/
+```
+
+
+Requires [`inetutils`]([url](https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/inetutils)) for the host mode
+> may show: user@unknown when not found & in host mode
