oh-my-posh: Loading profile in VsCode PowerShell Extension leads to error in custom key handler

What happened?

Hello,

have recently updated to v12.0.1 to see if this still occurs and it does:

D:\Code\Personal> oh-my-posh init pwsh --config $UserPsScripts\ParagnosterPlus2.omp.json | Invoke-Expression
[2022-10-08 12:59:19]❯ An exception occurred in custom key handler, see $error for more information: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

Once I load Oh-my-Posh, the Terminal provided by the PowerShell Extension Module throws this error.

The normal VsCode terminal does not exhibit this behavior. If I enable “Use Legacy Read Line” (I am advised that this isn’t recommended) in the PowerShell Extension, it also does not occur.

I think my (recently updated) theme is causing this, but which part may it be?

Recent changes:

  • Added a second line
  • Added Sysinfo
  • Enabled TransientPrompt (which does lead to lingering text when copy/pasting muli-line text btw)

Theme

I have created a personal theme with all I’d need and like to see. Intially based on Paragon and Agnoster Plus, but v2 now incorporates other elements as well

This issue does not occur with ParagnosterPlus v1

@JanDeDobbeleer we’ve managed to confirm this is only affecting PowerShell 5.1. I looped our PSReadLine maintainer in, maybe we’ll figure it out, though 5.1 is in maintenance mode and for the extension is supported on a best effort basis 🤷 PowerShell 7 and oh-my-posh work just great 👍

@andschwa I understand. No future in 5.1 anyways.
