You get: Ignore insecure files and continue [ny]? I see two problems with this: 1) The user does not know it is zsh saying this, it could be anything, really. 2) The user is not told _what_ files are considered insecure and why. Adding a note on where & why the files were sourced/loaded would be an optional extra. Other than that, I love this feature. Once again zsh devs have handled a situation I did not even really think about until I stumbled into it :) Richard
