You should probably read the RESTRICTED SHELL section in the zshmisc manual page. Zsh enters restricted mode if command used to invoke zsh starts with the letter r or the -r command line option is supplied at invocation. You can also set restricted mode any time unsing setopt(RESTRICTED). > By the way, zsh-3.1.1 is only a Beta, is it stable? Yes, it is beta, and it certainly has bugs (as every program), but it is quite usable. Many people just accept the fact that the production release of the OS they use crashes several times a day. Zsh is far more stable than that. Anything starting with zsh-3.1 will be beta, but hopefully by every new release it is getting better. And if you do not use the new staff, it should be as stable as the 3.0 series. And eventually, zsh-3.2 will be released some time for those who prefer stability. But it'll be fall or maybe even winter before that happens. Zoltan
