zshuery

jQuery did this for JS, we're doing it for zsh. A simpler zsh configuration framework. Follows the "Explicit is better than implicit" principle from the Zen of Python, so almost nothing gets loaded when you source the file.

What's wrong with Oh My Zsh?

Nothing. It's just a bit too complex for my taste.

What's inside?

• Checks: functions is_mac, is_linux, is_freebsd, has_brew, has_apt, has_yum for your if statements
• Some common defaults (eg. ^W removes until a / like in vim, bash and tcsh)
• Plug&play support for Ubuntu's command-not-found, hub, RubyGems on Debian/Ubuntu, rvm, rbenv
• Prompt setting aliases (for better readability) and "prompts" command which sets both left and right prompts
• Neat stuff for your prompt: virtualenv info, smart prompt character (by Steve Losh. ± when you're in a Git repo, ☿ in a Mercurial repo, $ otherwise), rvm/rbenv ruby version
• Aliases
• Completion for a lot of stuff
• Correction
• Current directory in title support: add update_terminal_cwd to your chpwd(). In OS X Lion Terminal.app, this'll be draggable!

Functions & aliases

• cj curl and pretty-print JSON
