bash to zsh

Filed under: linux, programming — fri13th June 22, 2007 @ 9:55 am

i heard that zsh is cool. and it wasn’t difficult to change to zsh in mac os at all. so i decide to change my default shell

this one line is enough to change your default shell

chsh -s /bin/zsh

zsh and bash uses different prompt system, so be careful. and anything else is almost same.

this is my prompt in .zshrc, copied from .bashrc
export PS1=’[%m@%n %~]$ ‘

i’ve used this shell in some days, and finally got the conclusion that, this one’s better than bash, but not so definitively. and i found no reason to return to bash, i’ll use zsh for a while, i guess.
