Eric Nielsen 53a3cd7933 Fix git-info arbitrary command execution exposure The contents of git_info are subject to expansion by the shell. Avoid putting raw ref names in the prompt to protect the user from arbitrary code execution via specially crafted ref names (e.g., a ref named '$(IFS=_;cmd=sudo_rm_-rf_/;$cmd)' would execute 'sudo rm -rf /' when the prompt is drawn). Instead, put the ref names in new global variables and reference these variables from git_info.

If you're here, it means you want to see the cool shit Zim can do. Check out the available modules!

Below is a brief showcase of Zim's features.

Speed

For a speed comparison between Zim and other frameworks, see this wiki entry.

Themes

Syntax Highlighting

And much more!

Zim has many modules! Enable as many or as few as you'd like.

Installation

Installing Zim is easy. If you have a different shell framework installed (like oh-my-zsh or prezto), uninstall those first to prevent conflicts. It can be installed manually by following the instructions below:

In a Zsh shell, clone the repository:

git clone --recursive https://github.com/Eriner/zim.git ${ZDOTDIR:-${HOME}}/.zim

Paste this into your terminal to prepend the initialization templates to your configs:

setopt EXTENDED_GLOB
for template_file ( ${ZDOTDIR:-${HOME}}/.zim/templates/* ); do
  user_file="${ZDOTDIR:-${HOME}}/.${template_file:t}"
  touch ${user_file}
  ( print -rn "$(<${template_file})$(<${user_file})" >! ${user_file} ) 2>/dev/null
done

Set Zsh as the default shell:

chsh -s =zsh

Open a new terminal and finish optimization (this is only needed once, hereafter it will happen upon desktop/tty login):

source ${ZDOTDIR:-${HOME}}/.zlogin

You're done! Enjoy your Zsh IMproved! Take some time to read about the available modules and tweak your .zshrc file.

Updating

To update zim, run:

zmanage update

For more information about the zmanage tool, see the meta module documentation.

Uninstalling

The best way to remove zim is to manually delete ~/.zim, ~/.zimrc, and remove the initialization lines from your ~/.zshrc.

However, there are some experimental convenience functions to remove zim:

NOTE: This functionality is experimental!

To remove zim, run:

zmanage remove
