A non zero value causes shell functions to be profiled. The results can be
obtained with the zprof builtin command (see zshmodules(1) for details).
+: **COMPDUMPFILE**
+Specifies the location of the completion dump file. Default: $HOME/.zcompdump.

= FEATURE DESCRIPTION =
This is an in depth description of non-standard features implemented by
== PROMPT ==
+The //grmlzshrc// now supplies three prompt themes compatible with zsh's
+**promptinit** system. The three themes are called **grml**, **grml-large** and
+**grml-chroot**.
+
+By default, **grml** is used, unless //$GRMLPROMPT// is set to a value larger
+than zero, in which case **grml-large** is used. Lastly, if //$GRML_CHROOT// is
+non-empty, **grml-chroot** is used.
+
+As usual, with promtinit themes, the user may switch to a different theme using
+the //prompt// utility:
+\
+```
+ prompt grml-large
+```
+
+That will use the **grml-large** prompt theme.
+
+The themes are highly customisable. The main source of documentation about
+customisation is the main **grml** theme's doc-string, that is available via
+the following command:
+\
+```
+ prompt -h grml
+```
+
+The other themes also come with doc-strings, but the main theme's is the
+canonical reference about all of them.
+
+This feature requires version //4.3.7// of the shell. Older versions will use
+the classic grml prompt as a fallback.
+
+A note to people who like customisation: If you are **not** using a prompt
+theme for your customisation, but you're either statically setting $PS1 (or
+$PROMPT) or you're constructing one of those variables in zsh's \`precmd()'
+function, make sure you are turning the zsh's prompt theme system **off**
+before doing so. A correct example customisation could look like this:
+\
+```
+ # Turn the prompt system off:
+ prompt off
+ # Customise the prompt yourself:
+ PS1='%~ %# '
+```
+
+You also add your own tokens by using the \`grml_theme_add_token()' function.
+Call the function without arguments for detailed documentation about that
+procedure.
== GNU/SCREEN STATUS SETTING ==
//grmlzshrc// sets screen's hardstatus lines to the currently running command
Brings a job, which got suspended with CTRL-z back to foreground.
+=== Customisation ===
+
+To customise keybindings, you can just use zsh's bindkey utility. However, if
+you plan to to use the `//zle-line-init//' or `//zle-line-finish//' hooks
+yourself, make sure you call the following functions in the respective hook:
+
+- **zle-line-init**: //zle-smkx//
+- **zle-line-finish**: //zle-rmkx//
+
+
+This is **required** so the keybindings set up by //grmlzshrc// work. The
+reason for this is to turn the terminal into the right mode while zsh's line
+editor (zle) is running. This enables us to query //terminfo// about escape
+sequences for special keys and thus simplify and generalise our keybinding
+section.
+
+
== SHELL FUNCTIONS ==
//grmlzshrc// comes with a wide array of defined shell functions to ease the
user's life.
: **freload()**
Reloads an autoloadable shell function (See autoload in zshbuiltins(1)).
+: **grml_vcs_info_toggle_colour()**
+Toggles between coloured and uncoloured formats in vcs_info configuration.
+This is useful with prompts that break if colour codes are in vcs_info
+format expansions (like the `clint' prompt and every other prompt that
+uses %v to expand the contents of `$vcs_into_msg_0_'). If you are using
+customised vcs_info formats, you shouldn't be using this function, since
+it will set all formats to grml's default values (either coloured or plain)
+again.
+
: **hgdi()**
Use GNU diff with options -ubwd for mercurial.
: **grep** (//grep --color=auto//)
Shows grep output in nice colors, if available.
-: **grml-rebuildfstab** (//rebuildfstab -v -r -config//)
-Scans for new devices and updates /etc/fstab according to the findings.
-
: **grml-version** (//cat /etc/grml_version//)
Prints version of running grml.
: **llog** (//$PAGER /var/log/syslog//)
Opens syslog in pager.
-: **ls** (//ls -b -CF --color=auto//)
-Lists directory printing octal escapes for nongraphic characters.
-Entries are listed by columns and an indicator for file type is appended
-to each file name. Additionally the output is colored, if the terminal
-supports it.
+: **ls** (//ls -CF --color=auto//)
+Lists directory, entries are listed by columns and an indicator for
+file type is appended to each file name. Additionally the output is
+colored, if the terminal supports it.
: **lsa** (//ls -a .*(.)//)
Lists dot files in current working directory.
