You can get it from the main zsh site, or mirrors, or from Sourceforge. The main FTP site is: ftp://ftp.zsh.org/pub/zsh.tar.gz ftp://ftp.zsh.org/pub/zsh.tar.bz2 ftp://ftp.zsh.org/pub/zsh-doc.tar.gz ftp://ftp.zsh.org/pub/zsh-doc.tar.bz2 Thanks to everybody who has contributed to zsh over the years. The release notes are as follows. Version 5.0.0 of zsh is the new stable release. There are many changes since the last stable release series, 4.2, of which the most important is handling of multibyte characters. The file NEWS in the distribution gives more information. The file README details some incompatibilities with previous versions, mostly minor. Users of the development release series will not see major changes since the previous release, 4.3.17. -- Peter Stephenson Web page now at http://homepage.ntlworld.com/p.w.stephenson/
