Read "INSTALL" for information on getting this shell running. zsh is free software. See the file COPYING for copying permission. This shell was "developed" by me, Paul Falstad, a sophomore at Princeton University. I borrowed _heavily_ from ksh, bash, tcsh, sh, and csh, as well as adding a few (IMHO) useful features. zsh was at first intended to be a subset of csh for the Commodore Amiga, but the project sort of ballooned; now I want it to be a cross between ksh and tcsh. It should be a powerful "command and programming language" that is well-designed and logical (like ksh), but it should also be built for humans (like tcsh), with all the neat features like spell checking, login/logout watching and termcap support that are probably too weird to make it into an AT&T product. This version of the shell has fallen far short of that goal; I just wanted to release _something_, because this is obviously going to be an extremely long project. This is version v1.0 of zsh. I incorporated the GNU "readline" editor, written by Brian Fox, into the shell, just to make my life temporarily easier. I made lots of changes to it, so if there are any bugs in the editor, they're probably my fault. readline will not be a part of the next version of zsh. If anyone has any questions, suggestions, comments, bugs, flames, or any other mail of any kind, send it to pfalstad@phoenix.princeton.edu. Thanks to Kartik Subbarao, Daniel Bernstein ("Yay. So sell it."), Kennedy Lemke, Chet Ramey (for the bash man page, and for putting features in the man page that weren't in our version of bash), Brian Fox (for helping me put off a lot of work, and for writing bash), Richard M. Stallman (for gdb and gcc; not for emacs though ;-) ) and many others.
