Matt Hamilton fb7defa729 cleanup of zlogin 
Change the scope of the job: {} to (); removes need for unfunction

Because we changed the job scope, we no longer need the anonymous
function/local var.

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.

  1. In a Zsh shell, clone the repository:
git clone --recursive https://github.com/Eriner/zim.git ${ZDOTDIR:-${HOME}}/.zim
  1. Paste this into your terminal to copy the template configuration files (or append to existing configs):
setopt EXTENDED_GLOB
for template_file ( ${ZDOTDIR:-${HOME}}/.zim/templates/* ); do
  cat ${template_file} | tee -a ${ZDOTDIR:-${HOME}}/.$(basename ${template_file}) > /dev/null
done
  1. Set Zsh as the default shell:
chsh -s $(which 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.
