Eric Nielsen ae133abca9 Compile functions.zwc for each functions directory 
instead of a big single `functions.zwc` file containing functions from
all the `functions` subdirectories.

This solution here better suits the functions autoloading mechanism in
zsh, as documented in
http://zsh.sourceforge.net/Doc/Release/Functions.html#index-autoloading-functions

Given `~/.zim/modules/foo/functions` is in the `fpath`, autoload looks
for functions in the following files, picking the **newest one** in this
order:
* `~/.zim/modules/foo/functions.zwc`, which should contain all
  functions in the directory named `functions`
* `~/.zim/modules/foo/functions/function.zwc`
* `~/.zim/modules/foo/functions/function`

With this approach, we're also having individual entries back in `fpath`
for the `functions` subdirectory of each enabled module (as was the case
before commit 55df5a4).

This is also probably closest to the original plan at #86. The current
code was not compiling "*all* files in a folder into a single digest",
but instead compiling *all* files in *all* the functions folders into a
single digest, which was a bad idea. This commit fixes this.

Fixes #231. Fixes #232. Closes #234.

Closes #239

ZIM - Zsh IMproved

What is Zim?

Zim is a Zsh configuration framework with blazing speed and modular extensions.

Zim is very easy to customize, and comes with a rich set of modules and features without compromising on speed or functionality!

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:

  1. In a Zsh shell, clone the repository:
git clone --recursive https://github.com/zimfw/zimfw.git ${ZDOTDIR:-${HOME}}/.zim
  1. 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
  1. Set Zsh as the default shell:
chsh -s =zsh
  1. Open a new terminal and finish optimization (this is only needed once, hereafter it will happen upon desktop/tty login):
source ${ZDOTDIR:-${HOME}}/.zlogin
  1. 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!
