I am curious about this file that was automatically created and named ".zshrc.pre-oh-my-zsh." It was automatically created after the installation and seemed to have all of my preferences before the oh-my-zsh installation. I did this install before your tutorial came out, but I have kept the file around in a different location for now. Almost deleted it on accident. Would this be the equivalent of the backup you're referring to? Hopefully not too irrelevant... So, are you still technically using nano? It seems like the alias for vs code and zsh enables you to edit the file. Out of experimentation, I used nano ~/.zshrc from the terminal emulator and couldn't see the plug-ins for oh-my-zsh. In contrast, if I used vim from either vs code or the original terminal emulator, I can see the plug-ins regardless of the application I'm using. Is there any reason behind this?
Your content is great! I really liked the zs alias for quick access to the $PATH. I will be sharing that with my co-workers Monday morning!
Awesome! Thanks for the feedback. I hope that I can provide more useful bits of info in the near future. Take care.
😢 Did you guys backup your saved aliases before doing this update?
How to save aliases
Make a video on aliases, very detailed video.
I will keep that in mind thanks Aamir.
