For MINGW, Git Bash and Cygwin, you need to modify the `PROMT_COMMAND` for WSL: replace `wslpath` with `cygpath`.

The `precmd_functions` hook tells zsh what commands to run before displaying the prompt. The `printf` statement is what we're using to append the sequence for setting the working directory with the Terminal. The `$(wslpath -w "$PWD")` bit will invoke the `wslpath` executable to convert the current directory into its Windows-like path. Using `precmd_functions+=` make sure we append the `keep_current_path` function to any existing function already defined for this hook.
