Looks complex. (-:

C shell:

% printf '%s\n' $path

Z shell:

% printf '%q\n' "$path[@]"

#UnixShells #CShell #ZShell #zsh #csh

I add a zsh `custom` folder inside my versioned .config repo for aliases, functions, and themes:

`mkdir -p "$HOME/.config/zsh/custom"`

Copy folder structure and examples, `cd "$HOME/.config/zsh" && cp -r ~/.oh-my-zsh/custom/ ./custom`

Edit `zshrc` to set `ZSH_CUSTOM`.

To customise the prompt with a timestamp and git info, I create a theme in: `~/.oh-my-zsh/custom/themes/di.zsh-theme`

#zsh #zshell #DiSetsUpAMacBook 18/n

For zsh, I group completion cache files into a subdirectory to minimise the loose collection of stray files in my home directory. I edit `~/.config/zsh/zshrc` and add comp dump file details before `source $ZSH/oh-my-zsh.sh`.

I also move `zsh_history` (which is not really config) out of the config directory. Edit `~/.config/zsh/zshrc` and add details before `source $ZSH/oh-my-zsh.sh`.

If I decide to delete `~/.cache` on a whim to free up space on my hard drive, I'll lose my whole zsh history. That's ok! If I miss it, that's what backups are for.

Close all existing tabs and start a new shell so I don't accidentally make more files in old locations. Delete any stray `.zcompdump-*` or `.zsh_history` files already created.

#zsh #zshell #DiSetsUpAMacBook 17/n

I set up zsh with Oh My Zsh.

First, I make a directory for zsh config files in the git tracked .config dir:

`mkdir -p ~/.config/zsh`

I create a `~/.config/zsh/.zshenv` file and in it I set `ZDOTDIR` to the new config dir:

`ZDOTDIR="$HOME/.config/zsh"`

I create symlinks for the `.zshenv` file (which will be processed before other zsh files) and zshrc:

`ln -s ~/.config/zsh/zshenv ~/.zshenv`

`cd ~/.config/zsh/ && ln -s zshrc .zshrc`
