Tested on Ubuntu 17.04
```bash
apt install fish powerline
```
This pulls in fonts-powerline python-powerline python-psutil python3-powerline
add the following lines to ~/.config/fish/config.fish
```
set fish_function_path $fish_function_path "/usr/share/powerline/bindings/fish"
source /usr/share/powerline/bindings/fish/powerline-setup.fish
powerline-setup
```
and then start a new instance of fish by typing `fish`
Presumably if you have a different set up or distro, you can use grep/find
to get the above information.
```fish
# these commands work with bash or fish
cd /
find -name fish 2>&1 | grep bindings
# which returns
./usr/share/powerline/bindings/fish
# and then
find -name '*.fish' 2>&1 | grep -e 'powerline-setup'
# returns
./usr/share/powerline/bindings/fish/powerline-setup.fish
```
