my zshrc file, which has been fine tuned over them years:
http://pastebin.com/608652

particularly, try out the RPROMPT.
it hasn't too many comments, but it should be easy to figure it out.

Type "rehash" and look in the manual for more information, I don't have zsh installed on this box, so I can't tell you.

Hi guys!
I'm using zsh for over a year now... And I've found two good tips in this thread, so I'll post a one too. I've noticed nobody commented on compctl command, so here it goes:

I am using:
zsh-completion-20050120
zsh-4.3.2-r1
and
screen-4.0.2-r4

and my problem is history in zsh while running screen.

Without screen program in my zsh, UP and DOWN arrows browses history so when I write for example
P and press arrow (UP or DOWN) zsh search in history for command program start with capital P. And it's OK. I browse only commands with capital P.

But while running screen and writeing P and next UP/DOWN arrow it browse all history command (showing previous/next command). How define .screenrc or whatever zsh works in screen like without it.

Maybe you don't have this?

I have this but I think you do not understand my problem (sorry for my english).
For exemple.
1) zsh without screen
in zsh I write 'p' and next I'll use UP arrow - zsh will find in .zhistory file I was uning 'p'ine and add after my p - 'ine' - when I press UP arrow again zsh again will find in history I was uning 'p's aux (and 's aux' add after my p)... and so...

2) zsh+screen
after i write p and press UP arrow - zsh clear my 'p' and insert last command from history file (exit) after another UP arrow display command from history (before last one)...

It seems that screen somehow interferes with pageup/down keys... I've had a similar problem with delete, wich was producing tildas in screen (~). I've solved it with modifying screen termcap.

type cat in zsh, and see the output for page up and page down.
then, enter screen zsh, and do it again (cat <return>, <pageup><pagedown>).

If it's the same then I don't have a clue. If it's not, than you must set up your .zshrc accordinly (for example, test if $TERM is screen, if it is use second pair of keybindings, if it's not, use first pair).

Hepe this helps.

So ... at the moment I am just playing around a little bit with zsh

... seems quite nice (though i don't know whether all the nice things I learn(ed) while reading the user's guide will be accessible in a few weeks ^^) ...

However: I just wondered if anyone of the zsh-gurus in this forum might post his/her zshrc somewhere. There were some at the very beginning of this thread, but all links now bring a 404

So far,
Nec

(and btw: is there something similar to the "Ctrl-R"-history-search function of bash i used quite often?)

Does anyone know a way to get portage to automatically "rehash" so that users don't have to type that manually for zsh to find a newly installed app?

Hi!

I edited my /etc/zsh/zshrc file to load the complist module, but at the same time I wanted to make my own .zshrc universal and load the module from there, just to make sure it gets loaded (in case I switch to another computer). Now ZSH complains, that
