It used to take about 3 seconds to start a zsh and process my MANY named dirs. Now it takes about 7 seconds. (I ran time several times on both versions.) Anything I can do to improve the speed. I have the autonamedirs option turned on, which I bet is what is slowing it down. But I can't turn it off because the "%~" expansion stops working correctly (doesn't always get the shortest path). Platform: Solaris 2.4, Sparc 10. 2 Bugs: 1) ^ by itself crashes zsh. (present since at least beta6) 2) My favorite: Bolding in watch fmts doesn't work. RC says my fix (the one putshout in zle_misc.c should be putraw) has side effects. I have been using it for half a year now, with no problems. What kind of side effects should I be looking for?
