Zsh is a UNIX command interpreter (shell) usable as an interactive
|
|
|
login shell and as a shell script command processor. Of the standard shells,
|
|
|
zsh most closely resembles bf(ksh) but includes many enhancements. It
|
|
|
does not provide compatibility with POSIX or other shells in its
|
|
|
default operating mode: see
|
|
|
ifnzman(the section noderef(Compatibility))\
|
|
|
ifzman(the section `Compatibility' below).
|
|
|
|
|
|
Zsh has command line editing, builtin spelling correction, programmable
|
|
|
command completion, shell functions (with autoloading), a history
|
|
|
mechanism, and a host of other features.
