It occurred to me that using the preexec hook, I could get the command line to be in another color.
However, there are some bugs. The white command line characters below come about from using tab completion.

This last problem was from typing “ls” and then tab. And it gets worse if you try to backspace.
Here is an easy way to reproduce this:
Z% PS1="$PS1%B"
Z% function preexec { echo -n '\e[39m' }
Z% echo yea
yea
Z% ls a/b/c/d
Z% ls a/b/c
d
Z%

You should occur to use zle_highlight instead. For example;
zle_highlight=(region:underline
special:bold,bg=black
default:fg=39
)

Thanks!
Now if I could get zsh to intercept stderr and output it with its own color, I would be in zheaven!
