The zshenv file includes a loop which sources any file found in $HOME/Unix/zsh/source, so I have several files in there: aliases bindkeys functions The advantage is that I have all my aliases in one file, all my bindkeys in another, etc etc and I can easily check/change them. An error in my alises file does not prevent my bindkeys and functions from being loaded, etc etc. I feel that this is a good solution, it works for 'su' just fine, and I still only have one entry in my $HOME (.zshenv) and can put the other zsh-related files in another nested folder.
