This is why I launch my interactive shell from a failsafe /bin/sh instead of using chsh. If zsh ever messes up horribly, I end up back in a good old bog standard shell prompt.
- graywh 14y agoI was just wondering how you accomplish that.
- Freaky 14y agoI put this at the end of my ~/.profile: REALSHELLS="/usr/local/bin/zsh /usr/bin/zsh" for REALSHELL in $REALSHELLS; do if [ -e $REALSHELL ]; then if ! $REALSHELL -l; then echo "$REALSHELL exit $?" fi echo "$SHELL exit in 1s, Ctrl-C to abort" sleep 1 && exit fi done echo "No shells in [$REALSHELLS] found, falling back to $SHELL"
