The order in which custom modules are shown can be individually set

by setting `custom.foo` in `prompt_order`. By default, the `custom` module

will simply show all custom modules in the order they were defined.

## Do top level `format` and `<module>.disabled` do the same thing?

|

Yes, they can both be used to disable modules in the prompt. If all you plan to do is disable modules, `<module>.disabled` is the preferred way to do so for these reasons:
|
||||
|
||||
- Disabling modules is more explicit than omitting them from the prompt_order
|
||||
- Disabling modules is more explicit than omitting them from the top level `format`
|
||||
- Newly created modules will be added to the prompt as Starship is updated

## The docs say Starship is cross-shell, but it doesn't support X shell. Why?
