Prefix indictator doesn't show until reload

When tmux first loads, the indicator doesn't show up when pressed. However, if I do

source-file ~/.tmux.conf

it suddenly works.

I should mention, I am using the tmux config file at https://github.com/gpakosz/.tmux, as well as TPM, so instead of doing
set -g status-right '#{prefix_highlight}
I have to do
tmux_conf_theme_prefix="#{prefix_highlight}"

Hi, I've been facing the same issue. For me, the problem was that the status option was not fetched here:
https://github.com/tmux-plugins/tmux-prefix-highlight/blob/master/prefix_highlight.tmux#L26

Changing local -r value=$(tmux show-option -Aqv "$1") to local -r value=$(tmux show-option -gqv "$1") made it work. This has been changed in a recent commit d9e4e60 though, so I'm not sure if that applies to you also.

Worked like a charm @mickaelseznec.

Hi there. Could someone validate if #33 has fixed the problem?
