Very useful config! I especially like the "Change cursor shape for different vi modes" part. Only a true Vi user can appreciate and come up with that. Thanks Luke!

You don't need to type "cd " in zsh, you only need to type the path itself (see AUTO_CD in 'man zshoptions'). And what's more, since the typed path will autocomplete, you would only type for example "/e/c/i" instead of "cd /etc/cups/interfaces" or similar.
What I like in zsh is that I can type vi s/m/j/c/g/s/M and press Tab to have it expanded to vi src/main/java/com/goharsha/sesl/Main.java automatically. Very very handy when dealing with Git diffs and edit conflicted files or add individual files with patches.
Thank you so much, that was helpful! For hjkl navigation, I think it makes more sense to remap Alt+hjkl to behave like arrows on the OS level rather than setting up every app. On Windows it's easily done with PowerToys, on Linux you have xkb.

Great video! Just installed zsh-syntax-highlighting. Fantastic. Why you didn't tell me that earlier :-) Downloaded also your config file to peck out some raisins (German expression, don't know whether it works in English too). Certainly I will enable the vim keybindings ... Thank you again!
Hey bro I'm glad I found your channel. I've been teaching myself Latin and computer science for more than a year now. I also love your polemical memes ; It proves you're knowledgeable.
I've been running zsh for quite some time and didn't know a couple of these things. The vi mode was one and I was very happy to have that, but color me stupid, figured out esc got me into normal mode but couldn't figure out how to get back into insert mode. Actually googled it and when I saw the answer I slapped myself. I've used vim for years, but in my defense I'd had almost half a beer.
the thing to keep in mind about zsh is that it's not POSIX compliant. For example, $ < filename.txt isn't POSIX and forgetting that doesn't work in a POSIX shell can be really easy when you use it all the time.
I'm using vifm instead of lf, it's more customizable and the combination with the vi-mode is awesome. It's also really fast. Actually I switched from ranger to vifm because it was so slow...
For alias expansion you can do something like this: autoload -U compinit compinit # Expand alias on enter expand_alias_enter() { zle _expand_alias zle accept-line } # Expand alias on space expand_alias_space() { zle _expand_alias zle self-insert } # Create widgets zle -N expand_alias_enter zle -N expand_alias_space # Bind keys bindkey '^M' expand_alias_enter bindkey ' ' expand_alias_space
I'm still not convinced with zsh. Almost everything you say is possible in bash and it even works ootb (Debian Buster): - Command flags completion. Not as fancy as zsh, but works - Edit command in vim. C-x-e does the same - navigate through history. C-r, C-s are usually enough 99% of the times. You can always install fzf, fasd or whatever for even more functionality - etc. All in all I don't see any killer feature, which explains why does even this debate still exists. If zsh/fish were so good no one would use bash anymore. I think there are much more speed gains in learning readline and having some good old aliases for frequent commands than trying to reinvent the wheel. Things like: alias h='history | grep -i ' alias p='ps aux | grep -i ' C-u, sudo, C-y mkdir folder, cd M-. are much more useful and best of all they work in any Linux box.
Lol, and I remember you saying that you didn't want to use ZSH because because you didn't want it and BASH installed at the same time due to B L O A T.

I know this video is kind of old, but have you ever checked out oh-my-zsh since? I cant find a video at least so definitely go check that out if you haven't done that already!
It's actually not true that pure bash comes pre-configured with more things enabled (color prompt, completion, etc.) than zsh. You can prove that by starting up a bash shell with options to disable running all start up scripts. But since bash is the default shell on most Linux distros, the initialization files /etc/bash.bashrc and /etc/skel/.bashrc (which is copied to your /home//.bashrc by default) are setup up to make bash look all pretty. But the contents of those files can vary across distros or other OSes (Mac, BSD, etc.), and so your out-of-the-gate bash experience can vary. The shell for the Arch installer is zsh -- and it looks really well configured out of the gate -- but that's because the zsh startup files there are using the GRML customization script (see grml.org, or the grml-zsh-config package in Arch). As an aside, the zsh customizations from GRML are rather bloated (handling different OSes, different versions of zsh, different preferences that can be set), but there are some gems in configuring useful zsh options there, so it's worth while to read the GRML code and pull out the useful stuff. Luke, glad you finally made the leap to zsh. No more shell-hopping required. It's the last shell you'll ever need.
Is there a plugin that just kicks off an instance of nvim when the shell starts that just sits there available to other plugins via gRCP? So anything can ask a nvim instance to work on a buffer or fully embed in a terminal ncurses app as a widget or something?
i used zsh for a while. spent ages setting it up and everything. i eventually got rid of it because it is very slow. the worst offender was if i tried to tab complete a git command it would hang and ignore ^C for several seconds. im pretty sure all the extras are implemented in shell, (try set -x)
Luke Smith, how do you deal with esc + dot in the terminal when in vi-mode? I want to use vi-mode, but I use esc + dot so often, I can't live without it. The hacky solutions that people suggest online don't cycle through like esc + dot does.
I suppose you are using zsh with oh my zsh. Oh my zsh has got a huge lists of default plugins and you can use vi-mode plugin from OMZ. It enables a vi prompt with N/I modes. IMO it's better to use antigen with zshrc to manage such things. Besides zprofile there is zshenv things in there too. P.S. vi-model plugin from OMZ provides with all fancy things already so you don't need to create a wheel with all those commands: github.com/ohmyzsh/ohmyzsh/tree/master/plugins/vi-mode See all plugins: github.com/ohmyzsh/ohmyzsh/tree/master/plugins/ P.S. z or pj plugins do good things too.
When I type `ls `, I get "zsh: do you wish to see all 142 possibilities (71 lines)?". If I hit , I then fall into the same menu as Luke. Any tips on how to get rid of this initial prompt? On Ubuntu 20.04
I would like to add for all the lazy people out there, there is a project called oh-my-zsh which is like a turn key config for zsh. Set it and forget it baby. It also allows tweaking if one desires of course, and it provides a clean simple interface for said tweaking

also worth noting of oh-my-zsh
When I type `ls `, I get "zsh: do you wish to see all 142 possibilities (71 lines)?". If I hit , I then fall into the same menu as Luke. Any tips on how to get rid of this initial prompt? On Ubuntu 20.04
I would like to add for all the lazy people out there, there is a project called oh-my-zsh which is like a turn key config for zsh. Set it and forget it baby. It also allows tweaking if one desires of course, and it provides a clean simple interface for said tweaking
That's pure soy

I totally new to Zsh and Oh My Zsh, so please excuse any dumb questions. But what is the feature being used when you're in VIM and it's showing the status like the line number, the normal and visual mode and the bottom on your window.
Actually never-mind that above question. I was able to figure it out and install it. Arline for VIM.
After you press ctrl - e to enter vim buffer, how do you return to the terminal? Certainly not :q or :bd right? Or is it ctrl+z?
