execution in zshrc

execution in zshrc

[Pol (Admin)]

Here enclosed, my script from my zshrc file, to select current running
linux udistribtion.
At start (e.g. starting a konsole session)  it cannot match any linux
brand (although 'uname -v' works). therefore exiting with 'unknown
distribution'.
Yet, sourcing /etc/zshrc  at terminal prompt, the correct runnig
linux distibution is found.

Any  hints  to fix my  script?

thank you

paolo


--- myzsh script ---
#     System admin aliases depending on the linux distribution

          case `uname -v` in
           (#i)*ubuntu*)   ubuntu_system; echo '**** ubuntu linux
****'  #  ubuntu linux distribution
                  ;;

That means some option is being set in /etc/zshrc that affects the
running of the code.

It looks like this is probably

setopt extendedglob

If you put that before the code chunk it should work.

That works, thank you, but something is still wrong in my scripts,
My ubuntu_system function cannot be found at the start, (yet, noo
problem as my zshrc is sourced from terminal)
Here enclosed my function
thank you
paolo

-- my zsh function -

ubuntu_system () {

alias sepg='apt-cache search --names-only '
alias sapg='apt-cache search  '
alias saipg='apt-cache search --names-only --installed '

echo "ubuntu system aliases loaded"
}

--- end

This is all standard stuff.  You either have your function defined
inline in the startup file before it's used --- which is as good as
anything if you're always going to need to define it, as you obviously
are --- or you use the autoload mechanism: see AUTOLOADING FUNCTIONS in
the zshmisc manual.
