Gorgeous Autocomplete

Typo autosuggestion

Shared history between shells

CTRL+Q

• Puts a command in “stand-by”, like:

• cp /some/very/long/path a/b/...

• d’oh! I need to create directory a/b/c!

• CTRL+Q

• mkdir a/b/c

• and zsh takes the cp command back!

Improved navigation through command history

• ls <UP>

• starts navigating through all previous commands starting with ls

Directory stack handling

Really customizable prompts

Just some hints

• There are many, many other interesting things about zsh, I listed only the ones I use daily and I find really useful in my work

• Look for “zsh tips” on google, you’ll find LOTS of interesting things
