If you have zsh in a subdirectory mytt(bin) of your home directory, put this in .profile: ^^^^^^^^ I tried this in order to get my default shell on zsh.sourceforge.net to be the one in /home/groups/zsh/bin, but it doesn't work. If I make it .zprofile however, I just get an endless loop, and the SF guys probably aren't too keen on fork bombs, even linear ones :-) What's the correct way of doing it?
