      <title>..and on the seventh day, Science created zsh</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;Inspired by some recent posts from Tom on &lt;a href="http://tomafro.net/tags/zsh"&gt;zsh&lt;/a&gt;, I decided that I&amp;#8217;d do my part to help people give it a whirl. I&amp;#8217;ve been using zsh for a few years now and haven&amp;#8217;t found myself missing bash.&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;If you&amp;#8217;re interested in taking a few minutes to give zsh a while, you&amp;#8217;re in luck. I recently reorganized all of my zsh config into a package and &lt;a href="http://github.com/robbyrussell/oh-my-zsh/"&gt;tossed it on github&lt;/a&gt; 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&amp;#8217;ve come to rely on on a daily basis.&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;For example:&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Auto-complete rake and capistrano tasks&lt;/li&gt;
		&lt;li&gt;Git branch names when you&amp;#8217;re in a git project directory structure&lt;/li&gt;
		&lt;li&gt;Tons of color highlighting (grep, git, etc.)&lt;/li&gt;
		&lt;li&gt;Sexy prompts.. (so say me)&lt;/li&gt;
		&lt;li&gt;much much more&amp;#8230;&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;/ul&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;I invite you to give &lt;a href="http://github.com/robbyrussell/oh-my-zsh/"&gt;Oh My Zsh&lt;/a&gt; a whirl, which should take you less than a minute. Just &lt;a href="http://github.com/robbyrussell/oh-my-zsh/"&gt;follow the instructions&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;Also, Oh My Zsh is Snow Leopard compatible. ;-)&lt;/p&gt;
