Hiya.
I just got zsh 3.0.0 (I used to use zsh about 2 years ago & was
missing it in my new job...).
I spotted this in the info file, Node: Specifying Options:
--------cut-here--------8<--------cut-here--------8<--------cut-here--------
The sense of an option name may be inverted by preceding it with `no',
so `setopt No_Beep' is equivalent to `setopt beep'.
--------cut-here--------8<--------cut-here--------8<--------cut-here--------
It's lies!
Chris.

It's not lies, it's a typo. It should have said:
...so `setopt No_Beep' is equivalent to `unsetopt beep'.

OK. I'll let you off that one...

Aha - an emacs user... :)
Running zsh in a GNU Emacs 19.34 *shell* buffer, if I say 'no' to
spelling correction after switching off option zle, the shell crashes:
--------cut-here--------8<--------cut-here--------8<--------cut-here--------
cronus% setopt correct
cronus% figner
zsh: correct 'figner' to 'finger' [nyae]? ^Gn
zsh: command not found: figner
cronus% unsetopt zle
cronus% setopt
setopt
correct
interactive
monitor
shinstdin
cronus% figner
zsh: correct 'figner' to 'finger' [nyae]? ^Gn
zsh: command not found: figner
cronus% cronus%
Process shell exited abnormally with code 1
--------cut-here--------8<--------cut-here--------8<--------cut-here--------
It's OK in an xterm, & it's OK in Emacs if I have zle on...
What do you make of that?
(I'm running the shell by (setq explicit-shell-file-name
"/home/chris/bin/zsh") in my .emacs, then doing "M-x shell RET")
Chris.
