Subject: help with installing and correctly configuring zsh on an amd 64 box running gentoo stable

I am running gentoo stable on FX 8350 box. I installed zsh following
instructions given on gentoo wiki pages.
I did it quite correctly because when I first ran chsh -s /bin/zsh instead
of running the start up script it asked for a password to
be entered.
Apparently that is a bad thing.
My .zshrc file is in my /home/user directory:
bucketlist /home/mikef # more .zshrc
#~!/bin/zsh
#Completion
autoload -U compinit
compinit
# Correction
setopt correctall
#Prompt
autoload -U promptinit
promptinit
prompt gentoo
bucketlist /home/mikef #
My /etc/shells file looks like this:
mikef@bucketlist /etc % more shells
# /etc/shells: valid login shells
/bin/bash
/bin/csh
/bin/dash
/bin/esh
/bin/fish
/bin/ksh
/bin/mksh
/bin/sash
/bin/sh
/bin/tcsh
/bin/zsh
mikef@bucketlist /etc %
I think I have managed to install zsh:
mikef@bucketlist /etc % equery l zsh
* Searching for zsh ...
[IP-] [ ] app-shells/zsh-5.8:0
mikef@bucketlist /etc %
mikef@bucketlist /etc % echo "My current shell is $SHELL ($0)"
My current shell is /bin/zsh (zsh)
mikef@bucketlist /etc %
If you know of any diagnostic tests to check whether zsh is really running
properly or not I would appreciate it.
My fear is that it has been installed in an incorrect or half-cocked
fashion.
Comments appreciated.
Regards
Michael Fothergill
