It is the function of while editing the command line. Consider the following example: zsh: roland@minnesota:~% cd /usr/share/doc/zsh/ causes to change the line into the following: roland@minnesota:~% cd bash: roland@minnesota:~> cd /usr/share/doc/zsh causes to change the line into the following: roland@minnesota:~> cd /usr/share/doc/ Is there a way to make zsh to behave like bash in this example? Please, Cc: me to any answers. Roland -- Roland Bauerschmidt
