Hi,

2013/10/23 Brent Briggs <brent.briggs@gmail.com>:

on for the "--" option. What does it do exactly?

Many programs handle this as a flag that says that subsequent
parameters on the command line starting with a dash (=E2=80=9C-=E2=80=9D) a=
re not
options (while, in general, parameters starting with a dash are
options).

For example:
  rm -f # call rm with the =E2=80=9C-f=E2=80=9D option
  rm -- -f # call rm on the =E2=80=9C-f=E2=80=9D file

This is not zsh-specific.

Best regards,
