I’ve been using zsh for a few years now and haven’t found myself missing bash.</p>
<p>If you’re interested in taking a few minutes to give zsh a while, you’re in luck. I recently reorganized all of my zsh config into a package and <a href="http://github.com/robbyrussell/oh-my-zsh/">tossed it on github</a> to share. My goal was to create a reusable tool that would allow people to get up and running quickly with some of the fun configuration that I’ve come to rely on on a daily basis.</p>
<p>For example:</p>
<ul>
<li>Auto-complete rake and capistrano tasks</li>
<li>Git branch names when you’re in a git project directory structure</li>
<li>Tons of color highlighting (grep, git, etc.)</li>
<li>Sexy prompts.. (so say me)</li>
<li>much much more…</li>
</ul>
<p>I invite you to give <a href="http://github.com/robbyrussell/oh-my-zsh/">Oh My Zsh</a> a whirl, which should take you less than a minute. Just <a href="http://github.com/robbyrussell/oh-my-zsh/">follow the instructions</a>.</p>
<p>Also, Oh My Zsh is Snow Leopard compatible. ;-)</p><p>Inspired by some recent posts from Tom on <a href="http://tomafro.net/tags/zsh">zsh</a>, I decided that I’d do my part to help people give it a whirl. I’ve been using zsh for a few years now and haven’t found myself missing bash.</p>
