zsh

I use the following prompt in .zshrc: PROMPT="%{$fg[magenta]%}%n%{$reset_color%}@%{$fg[blue]%}%m %{$fg[yellow]%}%1~ %{$reset_color%}%# " When I open terminal I see this prompt: zoltan@zoltan-Macbook-Pro ~ % Is it possible to drop the text "zoltan" in the hostname? I would like to make it look like this: zoltan@Macbook-Pro ~ % Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

First, you create a "parameter

I want to run any program given as argument, through shell then want that shell left as interactive shell to use later. #!/bin/bash bash -i <<EOF $@ exec <> /dev/tty EOF But it is not working with zsh #!/bin/bash zsh -i <<EOF $@ exec <> /dev/tty EOF as well as if somebody know more improved way to do it please let me know.

Is there a way to have Emacs to prompt by default for a binary of my choice when running M-x ansi-term . It always asks me for /bin/zsh but I have a new installation of zsh in a different path. Alternatively, it would be great to have Emacs to just run the binary I want when I type M-x my-ansi-term There are a number of ways to specify the default shell: Set the variable explicit-shell-file-name . For example, in your .emacs : (setq explicit-shell-file-name "/bin/zsh") Set the environment variable ESHELL Set the environment variable SHELL phils Alternatively, it would be great to have Emacs to

I'm trying using gsutil to remove the contents of a Cloud Storage bucket (but not the bucket itself). According to the documentation, the command should be: gsutil rm gs://bucket/** However, whenever I run that (with my bucket name substituted of course), I get the following response: zsh: no matches found: gs://my-bucket/** I've checked permissions, and I have owner permissions. Additionally, if I specify a file, which is in the bucket, directly, it is successfully deleted. Other information which may matter: My bucket name has a "-" in it (similar to "my-bucket") It is the bucket that Cloud

I have been using oh-my-zsh for a while now and the docker plugin as recently stopped working for me for some reason. I checked my ~/.zshrc file and the plugin is included plugins=(git colored-man colorize github jira vagrant virtualenv pip python brew osx zsh-syntax-highlighting docker) I checked the ~/.oh-my-zsh/plugins/docker directory and there is a _docker file in there. Yet when I type docker and press Tab, I get none of the autocomplete shortcuts that I used to get. I can confirm that my git plugin works just fine but not the docker plugin. Tried doing exec zsh and source ~/.zshrc and
