ZSH-LOVERS(1) ============= NAME ---- zsh-lovers - tips, tricks and examples for the Z shell SYNOPSIS -------- Just read it. ;-) OVERVIEW -------- Whenever we look at the zsh manual we wonder why there are no examples or those simply things in (shell) life. The zsh contains many features, but there was no manpage with some examples (like procmailex(5)). That's why we wrote this manpage. Most of the tricks and oneliner come from the mailinglists zsh-users, zsh-workers, google, newsgroups and from ourself. See section *LINKS* for details. Note: This manpage (zsh-lovers(1)) is *not* an offical part of the Z shell! It's just a just for fun - manpage ;) + For comments, bugreports and feedback take a quick look at the section *BUGS*. SHELL-SCRIPTING --------------- This section provides some examples for often needed shellscript-stuff. Notice that you should not use otherwise most examples won't work. + Parse options in shellscripts. Example taken from ZWS by Adam Chodorowski (http://www.chodorowski.com/projects/zws/[]): ---------------------------------------------- parse_options() { o_port=(-p 9999) o_root=(-r WWW) o_log=(-d ZWS.log) zparseopts -K -- p:=o_port r:=o_root h=o_help if [[ $? != 0 || "$o_help" != "" ]]; then echo Usage: $(basename "$0") "[-p PORT] [-r DIRECTORY]" exit 1 fi port=$o_port[2] root=$o_root[2] log=$o_log[2] if [[ $root[1] != '/' ]]; then root="$PWD/$root"; fi } # now use the function: parse_options $* ---------------------------------------------- EXAMPLES -------- Available subsections are *Aliases*, *Completion*, *Unsorted/Misc examples*, *(Recursive) Globbing - Examples*, *Modifiers usage*, *Redirection-Examples*, *ZMV-Examples* and *Module-Examples*. ALIASES ~~~~~~~ Suffix aliases are supported in zsh since version 4.2.0. Some examples: ----------------- alias -s tex=vim alias -s html=w3m alias -s org=w3m ----------------- Now pressing return-key after entering 'foobar.vim' starts vim with foobar.vim. Calling a html-file runs browser w3m. 'www.zsh.org' and pressing enter starts w3m with argument www.zsh.org. + Global aliases can be used anywhere in the command line. Example: ---------------------- $ alias -g C='| wc -l' $ grep alias ~/.zsh/* C 443 ---------------------- Some more or less useful global aliases (choose whether they are useful or not for you on your own): -------------------------------------------------------- alias -g ...='../..' alias -g ....='../../..' alias -g .....='../../../..' alias -g CA="2>&1 | cat -A" alias -g C='| wc -l' alias -g D="DISPLAY=:0.0" alias -g DN=/dev/null alias -g ED="export DISPLAY=:0.0" alias -g EG='|& egrep' alias -g EH='|& head' alias -g EL='|& less' alias -g ELS='|& less -S' alias -g ETL='|& tail -20' alias -g ET='|& tail' alias -g F=' | fmt -' alias -g G='| egrep' alias -g H='| head' alias -g HL='|& head -20' alias -g Sk="*~(*.bz2|*.gz|*.tgz|*.zip|*.z)" alias -g LL="2>&1 | less" alias -g L="| less" alias -g LS='| less -S' alias -g MM='| most' alias -g M='| more' alias -g NE="2> /dev/null" alias -g NS='| sort -n' alias -g NUL="> /dev/null 2>&1" alias -g PIPE='|' alias -g R=' > /c/aaa/tee.txt ' alias -g RNS='| sort -nr' alias -g S='| sort' alias -g TL='| tail -20' alias -g T='| tail' alias -g US='| sort -u' alias -g VM=/var/log/messages alias -g X0G='| xargs -0 egrep' alias -g X0='| xargs -0' alias -g XG='| xargs egrep' alias -g X='| xargs' -------------------------------------------------------- COMPLETION ~~~~~~~~~~ See also man 1 zshcompctl zshcompsys zshcompwid. zshcompctl is the old style of zsh programmable completion, zshcompsys is the new completion system, zshcompwid are the zsh completion widgets. Some functions, like _apt and _dpkg, are very slow. You can use a cache in order to proxy the list of results (like the list of available debian packages) Use a cache: --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- zstyle ':completion:*' use-cache on zstyle ':completion:*' cache-path ~/.zsh/cache --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Prevent CVS files/directories from being completed: --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- zstyle ':completion:*:(all-|)files' ignored-patterns '(|*/)CVS' zstyle ':completion:*:cd:*' ignored-patterns '(*/)#CVS' --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fuzzy matching of completions for when you mistype them: --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- zstyle ':completion:*' completer _complete _match _approximate zstyle ':completion:*:match:*' original only zstyle ':completion:*:approximate:*' max-errors 1 numeric --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- And if you want the number of errors allowed by _approximate to increase with the length of what you have typed so far: --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- zstyle -e ':completion:*:approximate:*' \ max-errors 'reply=($((($#PREFIX+$#SUFFIX)/3))numeric)' --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ignore completion functions for commands you don't have: --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- zstyle ':completion:*:functions' ignored-patterns '_*' --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- With helper functions like: --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- xdvi() { command xdvi ${*:-*.dvi(om[1])} } --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- you can avoid having to complete at all in many cases, but if you do, you might want to fall into menu selection immediately and to have the words sorted by time: --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- zstyle ':completion:*:*:xdvi:*' menu yes select zstyle ':completion:*:*:xdvi:*' file-sort time --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Completing process IDs with menu selection: --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- zstyle ':completion:*:*:kill:*' menu yes select zstyle ':completion:*:kill:*' force-list always --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If you end up using a directory as argument, this will remove the trailing slash (usefull in ln) --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- zstyle ':completion:*' squeeze-slashes true --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- cd will never select the parent directory (e.g.: cd ../): --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- zstyle ':completion:*:cd:*' ignore-parents parent pwd --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- UNSORTED/MISC examples ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Hint: A list of valid glob Qualifiers can be found in zshexpn(1).

For migration from (t)csh to zsh use the c2z tool that converts csh aliases and environment and shell variables to zsh. It does this by running csh, and having csh report on aliases and variables. The script then converts these to zsh startup files. It has some issues and usage information that are documented at the top of this script. Here are functions to set the title and hardstatus of an *XTerm* or of *GNU Screen* to 'zsh' and the current directory, respectively, when the prompt is displayed, and to the command name and rest of the command line, respectively, when a command is executed: ------------------------------------------------------------------ function title { if [[ $TERM == "screen" ]]; then # Use these two for GNU Screen: print -nR $' 33k'$1$' 33'\ print -nR $' 33]0;'$2$'' elif [[ $TERM == "xterm" || $TERM == "rxvt" ]]; then # Use this one instead for XTerms: print -nR $' 33]0;'$*$'' fi } function precmd { title zsh "$PWD" } function preexec { emulate -L zsh local -a cmd; cmd=(${(z)1}) title $cmd[1]:t "$cmd[2,-1]" } ------------------------------------------------------------------ Put the following line into your ~/.screenrc to see this fancy hardstatus: ----------------------------------------- caption always "%3n %t%?
