I have RTFM'd enough to get things more-or-less working. This includes a bundle of aliases and shell functions to do ... well, lots of stuff. Trouble is, they seem to unset themselves! I have them in ~/.zshrc and straight after I log in everything is fine, but after a while when I go to use one of these aliases I get "zsh: command not found". Logging out then back in again always fixes it ... for a while. I haven't been able to figure out quite what makes this happen, but I'll keep trying. Oh, and the same thing doesn't seem to happen with the shell functions.
