"builtin" should be added to the list of precommand modifiers in the zshmisc man page. I think Zoltan removed that when he converted "builtin" from a reserved word, to a shell builtin. Apparently all the precommand modifiers other than nocorrect are actually shell builtins now (they were previously all reserved words). I remember this, because this was the reason I started rewriting the hash table code, so that you could disable and re-enable reserved words. -- Richard Coleman coleman@math.gatech.edu
