3. Restart your terminal.

Once installed, the user may customize the prompt by editing variables at the beginning of the super_prompt function in ~/.super_prompt. ~/.super_prompt is a hidden file so the user will need to view hidden files if using a GUI file manager. If the Ruby Gem is installed, the user may run super_prompt to delete the user's customizations and restore super_prompt to its default configuration. Otherwise, the user will need to reinstall to rollback to default settings.
