zmodule() {
  local -r zusage="Usage: %B${0}%b <url> [%B-n%b|%B--name%b <module_name>] [%B-r%b|%B--root%b <path>] [options]

Add %Bzmodule%b calls to your %B${ZDOTDIR:-${HOME}}/.zimrc%b file to define the modules to be initialized.
The initialization will be done in the same order it's defined.

  <url>                      Module absolute path or repository URL. The following URL formats
                             are equivalent: %Bfoo%b, %Bzimfw/foo%b, %Bhttps://github.com/zimfw/foo.git%b.
                             If an absolute path is given, the module is considered externally
                             installed, and won't be installed or updated by zimfw.
  %B-n%b|%B--name%b <module_name>    Set a custom module name. Use slashes inside the name to organize
                             the module into subdirectories. The module will be installed at
                             %B${ZIM_HOME}/%b<module_name>.
                             Default: the last component in <url>.
  %B-r%b|%B--root%b <path>           Relative path to the module root. Default: none.

Per-module options:
  %B-b%b|%B--branch%b <branch_name>  Use specified branch when installing and updating the module.
                             Overrides the tag option. Default: the repository default branch.
  %B-t%b|%B--tag%b <tag_name>        Use specified tag when installing and updating the module. Over-
                             rides the branch option.
  %B-u%b|%B--use%b <%%Bgit%b|%Bdegit%b>       Install and update the module using the defined tool. Default is
                             either defined by %Bzstyle ':zim:zmodule' use '%b<%%Bgit%b|%Bdegit%b>%B'%b, or %Bgit%b
                             if none is provided.
                             %Bgit%b requires git itself. Local changes are preserved on updates.
                             %Bdegit%b requires curl or wget, and currently only works with GitHub
                             URLs. Modules install faster and take less disk space. Local
                             changes are lost on updates. Git submodules are not supported.
  %B--no-submodules%b            Don't install or update git submodules.
  %B-z%b|%B--frozen%b                Don't install or update the module.

  The per-module options above are carried over multiple zmodule calls for the same module.
  Modules are uniquely identified by their name.

Per-module-root options:
  %B--on-pull%b <command>        Execute command after installing or updating the module. The com-
                             mand is executed in the module root directory.
  %B-d%b|%B--disabled%b              Don't initialize the module root or uninstall the module.

  The per-module-root options above are carried over multiple zmodule calls for the same mod-
  ule root.

Per-call initialization options:
  %B-f%b|%B--fpath%b <path>          Will add specified path to fpath. The path is relative to the
                             module root directory. Default: %Bfunctions%b, if the subdirectory
                             exists and is non-empty.
  %B-a%b|%B--autoload%b <func_name>  Will autoload specified function. Default: all valid names inside
                             the %Bfunctions%b subdirectory, if any.
  %B-s%b|%B--source%b <file_path>    Will source specified file. The path is relative to the module
                             root directory. Default: %Binit.zsh%b, if a non-empty %Bfunctions%b sub-
                             directory exists, else the largest of the files matching the glob
                             %B(init.zsh|%b<root_tail>%B.(zsh|plugin.zsh|zsh-theme|sh))%b, if any.
  %B-c%b|%B--cmd%b <command>         Will execute specified command. Occurrences of the %B{}%b placeholder
                             in the command are substituted by the module root directory path.
                             I.e., %B-s 'foo.zsh'%b and %B-c 'source {}/foo.zsh'%b are equivalent.

  Setting any per-call initialization option above will disable the default values from the
  other per-call initialization options, so only your provided values will be used. I.e. these
  values are either all automatic, or all manual in each zmodule call. To use default values
  and also provided values, use separate zmodule calls."
