The first two or three chapters of that guide are pretty good, but then it gets bogged down in obscure minutia to such a degree that you start to feel almost like you're just reading the zsh man pages again. The guide is in some serious need of a good editor to make it more concise and better organized. It also needs many more simple, practical examples. Unfortunately, it hasn't been updated since 2002, which also makes it a bit obsolete, since zsh development has been very active since then and zsh is now on to a new major version. Overall, the guide is a nice try, but zsh needs more and better documentation if its not going to overwhelm all but the most dedicated users.
