   One final alternative is to put a newline in your prompt -- see question
   link(3.13)(313) for that.
 
+  Version 3.0 of zsh includes a workaround: if the tt(PROMPT_SP) option
+  is set, as it is by default, the shell will try to move the cursor to the
+  start of the next screen line.  This requires some support from the
+  terminal which is available in most recent terminal emulators.
