Hello,
doing print -s/-S indeed places the argument in $history. However, even though inc_append_history is set, file $HISTFILE isn't updated. Is there a way to make it work? AFAIK update of history file is done exclusively, with locking. If I will just echo -E entry with $'\n' replaced to "\"$'\n', it will be somewhat possible that two processes will write $HISTFILE in the same time?

Running "fc -A -I" should do it.  Automatic inc_append_history only happens
for "real" history events from prompt.

Gentlemen:

'zmv' changes my prompt:

     4 /boot 4$ . zmv -C 'lilo.(????)-4' 'lilo.$1-5'
     ...
     $_tty $_blu/boot $_mag4$

I need to restart the shell to get it back.  Anything I can do about that?
