I compiled my own copy of zsh } 3.1.5 and the same thing happened. Autolist -is- on by default in 3.1.5, so it won't show up in setopt output. Try doing "setopt kshoptionprint" so that you can see the state of every option; in 3.1.5 I see (among lots of others) noautolist off ("no... off" is "on"). } Is this a zsh problem or a MOSXS problem? It's a zsh 3.1.5 "problem": A whole lot of options that weren't on by default in 3.0.x got made on-by-default in 3.1.5, and the way that "setopt" prints them correspondingly changed. The only other time I've something that could be described as "options not sticking" is when using a zsh that has been patched to add or change the list of options, and then rebuilt without all the .o files getting recompiled. -- Bart Schaefer Brass Lantern Enterprises http://www.well.com/user/barts http://www.brasslantern.com
