Subject: Why does this not work in zsh?
Date: Tue, 12 Sep 95 20:58:16 PDT [thread overview]
Message-ID: <199509130358.UAA13037@merlot.Stanford.EDU> (raw)
Below follows a nice script, which works with ksh, bash, csh and tcsh,
but not with zsh :-((((
The variable shname is set in .profile/.cshrc/.tcshrc etc.
I really like it (and it was a pain to comfort all shells), but zsh
is compatible to nothing in this respect :-)
Bye
Thomas
# this works for ksh + csh shells, when the following variables are defined
if ( `test $shname = ksh -o $shname = bash -o $shname = zsh` ) then
shfun=1 # K-Shells supports shell-functions
Ali() { alias $1="$2" ; }
alias endif=":"
else
set shfun=0; # C-Shell like do not support shell-funcs
alias Ali alias
alias fi :
alias setopt set # so we set options in Cshell like in ZShell
alias unsetopt unset
setopt noglob # do not allow filename expansion right now
endif
fi
if ( `test $shname = zsh` ) then
setopt noglob # do not allow filename expansion right now
alias fi=:
endif ; fi

# Safety
Ali cp 'cp -i' # prompt before overwriting file
Ali mv 'mv -i' # prompt before overwriting file
Ali rm 'rm -i' # prompt before removing file
