Can you use your existing bash configuration files with zsh? It looks like zsh isn't picking up my .profile file on my OS X box, or that it doesn't care about what it found there.
The bigger question is, what is the switching cost?
- abentspoon 17y agoI've been using zsh with my old 300 line bashrc for several months now. If you haven't already, try copying your .profile to .zshrc (just to see if it works); only your login shell reads your .profile.
- sandGorgon 17y agoHere is a zshrc with almost zero switching cost - especially with the esc-backspace behavior for path deletes, setenv declarations and integration with Ubuntu's command-not-found. Additionally, it displays the version-control information of a directory (works for svn, git, etc.) http://sandeep.wordpress.com/zshrc/ http://sandeep.wordpress.com/zshrc/
- jacquesm 17y agozsh uses .zprofile, .zshrc and so on, if you're going to use the same contents you could simply symlink them.
