Subject: Why no useful defaults?
Date: Mon, 20 Jan 2003 10:30:01 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20030120103001.B2388@radiomaranon.org.pe> (raw)
Hi again,
another question that I've been asking myself for a long time.
Now I decided the list is the better place to ask this. :-)
I am wondering why zsh doesn't come with some useful defaults?
No wonder that many people don't even know about zsh or try it once and
never again, because without at least a prompt that shows the current dir
it's worse than command.com. No, sorry I'm exagerating. :-)
But I'd really find it a good idea to provide the beginner with a little
more of the really powerful things zsh has to offer. Anyone seconds?
Andy.
