  • Zsh is but more for interactivity. The extended file globbing, extended auto completion, and loadable modules are the main reasons I like it. The features really shine when used with a configuration framework like ohmyzsh.

    Supposedly, Zsh has a more comprehensive shell scripting syntax, but that’s not a plus since I don’t want to write shell scripts.



  • Exactly. I’ve been up for 27 hours, but I finally have a booting Gentoo install now. 😃

    Gentoo installs are not that bad these days. However, back in 2005, it would take, like, a day or so to compile the kernel on my old Pentium M Thinkpad. I would run through the install, start compiling the kernel, and go to sleep/work/whatever. I would check on it periodically to see if anything went wrong, and eventually it would get to the point where I could reboot and find out I messed something up and had to start over. That was like a week, and then I installed Ubuntu. 😂
