excited for zsh!

Last night I got home from work and emerged zsh almost immediately.  Little did I know that if you don’t have a .zshrc in your home directory, there is an interactive setup for it!

I’m quite excited to get back home and finish the setup, however, I think I may have customized too early (as I usually end up doing) and may really end up stepping on my own toes.  The configuration/setup is quite esoteric I must say.  I can barely understand what exactly they are trying to get across and how it works.  I feel that if an experienced user would go through it, they’d have no problem, but as a first time never before used user, its quite complex.  Maybe examples would be useful there?

Anyways, I’m excited to start using it as there are some interesting speed-ups it mentions like:

/f/b as a shortcut to /foo/bar

And I think I’m getting used to menu completion.

Pretty soon I think I’ll be saying, “zsh, where have you been my whole life?!”.  And to be honest, I have only myself to blame.  That whole not wanting to change thing really gets in the way.  Learning new things is such a pain.
