-.SH DESCRIPTION
-\fBzsh\fP
-is a command interpreter and programming language
-that executes commands read from a terminal
-or a file.
-See
-.B Invocation
-for the meanings of arguments to \fBzsh\fP.
-.SS Definitions
-A metacharacter can one of the following characters:
-.RS
-.PP
-\fB;   &   (   )   {   }   \(bv   <   >   blank   newline\fP
-.RE
-.PP
-A blank is a
-.B tab
-or a
-.BR space .
-An identifier
-is a sequence of letters, digits, or underscores
-starting with a letter or underscore.
-Identifiers are used as names for
-`named parameters'.
-A word is a sequence of
-characters separated by one or more non-quoted
-metacharacters.
-.PP
-A command
-is a sequence of characters in the syntax
-of the shell language.
-\fBzsh\fP reads each command and
-carries out the desired action either directly or by invoking
-separate utilities.
-A builtin is a command that is carried out by the
-parent shell without creating a separate process.
-.SS Commands
-A simple-command is a sequence of blank
-separated words
-which may be preceded by a parameter assignment list.
-See
-.B Environment
-below.
-The first word specifies the name of the command to
-be executed.
-Except as specified below,
-the remaining words are passed as arguments
-to the invoked command.
-The command name is passed as argument 0
-(see
-.BR exec (2)).
-The value of a simple-command is its exit status
-if it terminates normally, or (octal) 200+\fIstatus\^\fP if
-it terminates abnormally (see
-.B signal
-for a list of
-status values).
-.PP
-A pipeline
-is a sequence of one or more
-commands
-separated by
-.B \(bv
-or
-.B \(bv&
-("\fB\(bv&\fP" is actually shorthand for "\fB2>&1\ \|\(bv\fP\|".  See
-.B Input/Output
-below).
-The standard output of each command but the last
-is connected by a
-.B pipe
-to the standard input of the next command.
-Each command is run as a separate process;
-\fBzsh\fP waits for all the commands to terminate.
-The exit status of a pipeline is the exit
-status of the last command to terminate.  A pipeline may be preceded by
-one of the following keywords:
-.PP
-.PD 0
-.TP
-\fBtime\fP
-The user, system, and real times
-of the commands in the pipeline are printed when the pipeline
-completes.
-.TP
-\fBcoproc\fP
-The processes are
-run asynchronously with the input and output of the pipeline
-connected to a two-way pipe to the parent shell.  The parent
-communicates with the coprocess using the \fB>&p\fP
-and \fB<&p\fP redirection operators.
-.TP
-\fB!\fP
-The exit status of the pipeline is the boolean NOT of the
-exit status of the last command.
-.PD
-.PP
-A sublist is a sequence of one or more pipelines
-separated by
-.BR &&
-or
-.BR || .
-The symbol \fB&&\fP (\fB||\fP) causes the list following it to be
-executed only if the preceding pipeline returns
-a zero (non-zero) value.
-.PP
-A list is a sequence of one or more sublists separated
-by, and optionally terminated by, either
-.BR ;
-or
-.BR & .
-A \fB;\fP causes sequential execution of the preceding
-sublist; a \fB&\fP causes asynchronous execution of the preceding
-sublist (that is, it does not wait for that sublist to finish).
-An arbitrary number of newlines may appear in a
-list, instead of a semicolon,
-to delimit a command.
-.PP
-A command
-is either a simple-command
-or one of the following.
-Unless otherwise stated,
-the value returned by a command is that of the
-last simple-command executed in the command.
-.TP
-\fBfor\fP \fIidentifier\^\fP [ \fBin\fP \fIword\^\fP .\|.\|. ] \fB;do\fP \fIlist\^\fP \fB;done\fP
-Each time a
-.B for
-command is executed,
-.I identifier
-is set to the next
-.I word
-taken from the
-.B in
-.I word list.
-If
-.B in
-.I word
-\&.\|.\|.
-is omitted, then the
-.B for
-command executes the \fBdo\fP \fIlist\^\fP once for each positional parameter
-that is set
-(see \fB"Parameter Substitution"\fP).
-Execution ends when there are no more words in the list.
-.TP
-\fBselect\fP \fIidentifier\^\fP [ \fBin\fP \fIword\^\fP .\|.\|. ] \fB;do\fP \fIlist\^\fP \fB;done\fP
-A
-.B select
-command prints on standard error (file descriptor 2), the set of
-.IR word s,
-each preceded by a number.
-If
-.BI in " word"
-\&.\|.\|.
-is omitted, then the positional parameters are used instead
-(see
-.B "Parameter Substitution"
-below).
-The
-.B PROMPT3
-prompt is printed
-and a line is read from the standard input.
-If this line consists of the number
-of one of the listed
-.IR word s,
-then the value of the parameter
-.I identifier
-is set to the
-.I word
-corresponding to this number.
-If this line is empty the selection list is
-printed again.
-Otherwise the value of the parameter
-.I identifier
-is set to null.  The contents of the line read from standard input is
-saved in the parameter \fBREPLY\fP.  The
-.I list
-is executed for each selection until a
-break or end-of-file is encountered.
-.TP
-\fBcase\fP \fIword\^\fP \fBin\fP [ \fIpattern\^\fP \fB)\fP \fIlist\^\fP \fB;;\fP ] .\|.\|. \fBesac\fP
-A
-.B case
-command executes the
-.I list
-associated with the first
-.I pattern
-that matches
-.IR word .
-The form of the patterns is
-the same as that used for
-filename generation (see
-.B "Filename Generation"
-below).
-.TP
-\fBif\fP \fIlist\^\fP \fB;then\fP \fIlist\^\fP [ \
-\fBelif\fP \fIlist\^\fP \fB;then\fP \fIlist\^\fP ] .\|.\|. \
-[ \fB;else\fP \fIlist\^\fP ] \fB;f\&i\fP
-The
-.I list
-following \fBif\fP is executed and,
-if it
-returns a zero exit status, the
-.I list
-following the first
-.B then
-is executed.  Otherwise, the
-.I list
-following \fBelif\fP
-is executed and, if its value is zero, the
-.I list
-following the next
-.B then
-is executed.  Failing that, the
-.B else
-.I list
-is executed.  If no
-.B else
-.I list
-or
-.B then
-.I list
-is executed, then the
-.B if
-command returns a zero exit status.

-.PD
-A
-.B while
-command repeatedly executes the
-.B while
-.I list
-and, if the exit status of the last command in the list is zero, executes
-the
-.B do
-.IR list ;
-otherwise the loop terminates.
-If no commands in the
-.B do
-.I list
-are executed, then the
-.B while

-.TP
-\fBrepeat\fP \fInum\fP\fB ;do\fP \fIlist\^\fP \fB;done\fP
-A
-.B repeat

-If the exit status of
-.I list
-is nonzero, the loop terminates.
-.TP

-.RE
-.SS History Substitution
-.LP
-History substitution allows you to use words from previous command
-lines in the command line you are typing.  This simplifies spelling
-corrections and the repetition of complicated commands or arguments.
-Command lines are saved in the history list, the size of which
-is controlled by the
-.B HISTSIZE
-variable.  The most recent command is retained in any case.
-A history substitution begins with a
-.B !
-and may occur anywhere on the command line; history
-substitutions do not nest.  The
-.B !
-can be escaped with
-.B \e
-to suppress its special meaning.
-.LP
-Input lines containing history substitutions are echoed on the
-terminal after being expanded, but before any other
-substitutions take place or the command gets executed.

-.BR $ ,
-.BR * ,
-.B \-

-.BR % .
-If the word is to be selected from the previous command, the second
-.B !
-character can be omitted from the event specification.  For instance,
-.B !!:1
-and
-.B !:1
-both refer to the first word of the previous command, while

-.PD
-.RE
-.LP
-Unless preceded by a

-the modification is applied only to the
-first string that matches
-.IR l ;
-an error results if no string matches.
-.LP
-The left-hand side of substitutions are not regular expressions,
-but character strings.
-Any character can be used as the delimiter in place of
-.BR / .
-A backslash quotes the delimiter character.
-The character
-.BR & ,
-in the right hand side, is replaced by the text
-from the left-hand-side.
-The
-.B &
-can be quoted with a backslash.
-A null
-.I l
-uses the previous string either from a
-.I l
-or from a contextual scan string
-.I s
-from
-.BI !? s\fR.
-You can omit the rightmost delimiter if a newline
-immediately follows
-.IR r ;
-the rightmost
-.B ?
-in a context scan can similarly be omitted.

-(if any).
-.PP
-.LP
-.PP
-The character sequence
-.BI ^ foo ^ bar
-repeats the last command, replacing the string "foo" with the

-If \fBzsh\fP encounters the character sequence
-\fB!"\fP
-in the input, the history mechanism is temporarily disabled until

-.PP
-A less convenient but more comprehensible
-form of command history support
-is provided by the

-builtin (see below).
-.SS Comments
-In noninteractive shells,
-a word beginning with
-.B #
-causes that word and all the following characters up to a newline
-to be ignored.
-.SS Aliasing
-The first word of each command is replaced by the text of an
-alias if an alias for this word has been defined.
-The replacement string can contain any
-valid input
-including the metacharacters listed above.
-If the last character of the alias value is a blank
-then the word following the alias will also be checked for alias
-substitution.
-Aliases can be nested.
-If an alias is defined with using the \-a flag (see the
-.B alias
-builtin below), it will be replaced no matter where it
-appears in the command line.
-Aliases can be used to redefine
-builtin commands or the
-`reserved words' listed above.
-Aliases can be created and listed with the
-alias
-command and can be removed with the
-unalias
-command.

-.SS Process Substitution
-Each command argument of the form
-\fB<(\fP\fIlist\^\fP\fB)\fP
-or
-\fB>(\fP\fIlist\^\fP\fB)\fP
-or
-\fB=(\fP\fIlist\^\fP\fB)\fP
-is subject to process substitution.
-In the case of the
-.B <
-or
-.B >
-forms, \fBzsh\fP
-will run process
-.I list
-asynchronously connected to a named pipe (FIFO).
-The name of this pipe will become the argument to the command.
-If the form with
-.B >
-is selected then writing on this file will provide input for
-.IR list .
-If
-.B <
-is used,
-then the file passed as an argument will
-be a named pipe connected to the output of the
-.I list
-process.
-For example,
-.RS
-.PP
-\fBpaste <(cut \-f1\fP \fIfile1\fP\fB) <(cut \-f3\fP \fIfile2\fB) | tee >(\fP\fIprocess1\fP\fB) >(\fP\fIprocess2\fP\fB)\fP >/dev/null
-.RE
-.PP
-.BR cut s
-fields 1 and 3 from
-the files
-.I file1
-and
-.I file2
-respectively,
-.BR paste s
-the results together, and sends it to the processes
-.I process1
-and
-.IR process2 .
-Note that the file, which is passed as an argument to the command,
-is a system
-pipe
-so programs that expect to
-.BR lseek (2)
-on the file will not work.
-Also note that the previous example can be more compactly and
-efficiently written as:
-.RS
-.PP
-\fBpaste <(cut \-f1\fP \fIfile1\fP\fB) <(cut \-f3\fP \fIfile2\fB) > >(\fP\fIprocess1\fP\fB) > >(\fP\fIprocess2\fP\fB)\fP
-.RE
-.PP
-\fBzsh\fP uses socketpairs (pipes) instead of a FIFOs to implement the latter
-two process substitutions in the above example.
-.PP
-If
-.B =
-is used,
-then the file passed as an argument will be the name
-of a temporary file containing
-the output of the
-.I list
-process.  This may be used instead of the
-.B <
-form for a program that expects to lseek on the input file.
-.SS Parameter Substitution

-one or more digits,
-or any of the characters
-.BR \(** ,

-.SS Arithmetic Substitution
-An arithmetic expression of the form
-.B $[...]
-is replaced by the value of the arithmetic expression
-within the brackets.  See
-.B
-Arithmetic Evaluation
-below.
-.SS Command Substitution
-The standard output from a command of the form
-.B $(...)
-or
-.B `...`
-may be used as part or all
-of a word;
-trailing newlines are removed.
-In the second (archaic) form, the string between the quotes is processed
-for special quoting characters before the command is executed. (See
-.BR Quoting ).
-The command substitution
-\^\fB$(\^cat\ file\^)\fP\^
-can be replaced by the equivalent but faster
-\^\fB$(\^<file\^)\fP\^.
-.SS Brace Expansion
-A string of the form
-.B {str,str,...}
-is expanded to each string in the comma-separated list in the
-specified order.  This construct may be nested.
-.PP
-A five-character string of the form
-.B {x\-y}
-is expanded to each character in the range from x to y, inclusive.
-.SS Filename Substitution
-After alias substitution is performed, each word
-is checked to see if it begins with an unquoted
-.B \(ap
-or
-.BI = .
-If it begins with a
-.BI \(ap ,
-then the word up to a
-.B /
-is checked to see if it matches a user name on the system.
-If a match is found, the
-.B \(ap
-and the matched login name is replaced by the
-login directory of the matched user.
-A
-.B \(ap
-by itself, or in front of a
-.BR / ,
-is replaced by \fB$HOME\fP.
-A
-.B \(ap
-followed by a
-.B +
-or
-.B \-
-is replaced by \fB$PWD\fP and \fB$OLDPWD\fP respectively.
-.PP
-If the word begins with a
-.B =
-followed by a letter, the word
-is replaced by the full pathname of the command name
-following the
-.BI = .
-Thus
-.BI = foo
-is a shorthand for
-\^\fB$(\^which\ \fIfoo\fB\^)\fR\^.
-If the word is of the form
-.B =number
-or
-.BR =number/... ,
-then the first part of the word is replaced
-by the appopriate element of the directory stack,
-corresponding to the specified number.
-The stack is viewed as zero-based, i.e.,
-.B =0
-is the same as
-.BR $PWD .
-As a special
-case,
-.B =\-
-is recognized as indicating the last directory in the stack.
-.PP
-All of the above forms of filename substitution
-may be followed by any of the modifiers allowed in the
-history mechanism except \fBq\fP and \fBx\fP.
-.SS Filename Generation
-Following substitution, each command
-.I word
-is scanned for
-the characters
-.BR \(** ,
-.BR ? ,
-.BR [ ,
-.BR ^ ,
-.BR # ,
-.BR < ,
-and
-.BR | .
-If one of these characters appears
-then the word is regarded as a
-.IR pattern .
-The word is replaced with alphabetically sorted filenames that match the pattern.
-If no filename is found that matches the pattern, then
-the word is left unchanged.
-When a
-.I pattern
-is used for filename generation,
-the character
-.B .
-at the start of a filename
-or immediately following a
-.BR /
-must be matched explicitly, unless the
-.B globdots
-option is set.
-Also, the
-.B /
-character itself must be matched explicitly.
-In filename generation, no pattern matches "." or "..".
-In other instances of pattern matching the
-.B /
-and
-.B .
-are not treated specially.
-.PP
-.PD 0
-.RS
-.TP
-.B \(**
-Matches any string, including the null string.
-.TP
-.B ?
-Matches any single character.
-.TP
-.BR [ \^.\|.\|.\^ ]
-Matches any one of the enclosed characters.
-A pair of characters separated by
-.B \-
-matches any
-character lexically between the pair, inclusive.
-If the first character following the opening "["
-is a "^" then any character not enclosed is matched.
-A
-.B \-
-can be included in the character set by putting it as the
-first or last character.
-.TP
-.B <...>
-Matches a numeric field.  A pattern of the form
-.BR <x\-y> ,
-where x and y are decimal integers, matches any number between
-x and y inclusive.  Patterns of the form
-.B <x\->
-and
-.B <\-y>
-match any number greater than or equal to x, and less than or
-equal to y, respectively.  The degenerate
-.B <\->
-or simply
-.B <>
-matches any number.  Note that a
-.B <...>
-pattern eats up
-any numbers it encounters; thus
-.B foo<1\-5>7
-does not match
-"foo27", even though 2 is between 1 and 5.
-.TP
-.B x#
-Matches zero or more occurrences of the pattern x.
-.TP
-.B x##
-Matches one or more occurrences of the pattern x.
-.TP
-.B ^pattern
-Matches anything but the specified pattern.
-.TP
-.B foo|bar
-Matches either foo or bar.
-.PD
-.RE
-.PP
-Parentheses may be used for grouping.  Note that the \fB|\fP character
-must be within parentheses, so that the lexical analyzer does
-not think it is a pipe character.  Also note that "/" has a
-higher precedence than "^"; that is:
-.RS
-.PP
-ls
-.BI ^ foo / bar
-.RE
-.PP
-will search directories in "." except "./foo" for a file named bar.
-.PP
-A pathname component of the form
-.BI ( foo /)#
-matches a path consisting of zero or more directories
-matching the pattern foo.
-As a shorthand,
-.B ..../
-is equivalent to
-.BR (*/)# .
-Thus:
-.RS
-.PP
-ls
-.BI (*/)# bar
-.RE
-.PP
-or
-.RS
-.PP
-ls
-.BI ..../ bar
-.RE
-.PP
-does a recursive directory search for files named bar.
-.PP
-If used for filename generation, a pattern may end in a qualifier
-of the form \fB(X)\fP or \fB(^X)\fP, where \fBX\fP is a character that
-specifies which filenames that otherwise match the given pattern
-will be inserted in the argument list.  \fBX\fP may be any one of the
-following:
-.PD 0
-.RS
-.TP
-.B /
-directories

-.TP
-.B W
-world-writeable files (0002)
-.TP
-.B X
-world-executable files (0001)
-.PD
-.RE
-.PP
-Thus:

-.B
-*(%)
-.RE
-.PP
-lists all device files in the current directory,
-and
-.RS
-.PP
-ls
-.B /tmp/foo*(^@)
-.RE
-.PP
-lists all files beginning with the string
-"foo" in /tmp, ignoring symlinks.  A "/" at the end of a pattern
-is equivalent to "(/)".
-.SS Quoting
-Each of the
-.I metacharacters
-listed above (See
-.I Definitions
-above)
-has a special meaning to \fBzsh\fP
-and causes termination of a word unless quoted.
-A character may be
-.I quoted
-(that is, made to stand for itself)
-by preceding
-it with a
-.BR \e .
-The pair
-.B \enewline
-is ignored.
-All characters enclosed between a pair of single quote marks (\^\fB\(fm\^\(fm\fP\^),
-are quoted.
-A single quote cannot appear within single quotes.
-Inside double quote marks
-(\fB"\^"\fP),
-parameter and command substitution occurs and
-.B \e
-quotes the characters
-.BR \e ,
-.BR \f(CW`\fP ,
-\fB"\fP,
-and
-.BR $ .
-Inside grave quote marks
-.Pn ( `` )
-.B \e
-quotes the characters
-.BR \e ,
-` ,
-and
-.PP $ .
-If the grave quotes occur within double quotes then
-.BR \e
-also quotes the character
-\fB"\fP.
-.PP
-The special meaning of reserved words or aliases can be removed by quoting any
-character of the reserved word.
-The recognition of function names or builtin names listed below
-cannot be altered by quoting them.
-.SS Arithmetic Evaluation
-An ability to perform integer arithmetic
-is provided with the builtin
-.BR let .
-Evaluations are performed using
-.I long
-arithmetic.
-Constants are of the form
-[\fIbase\fB#\^\fR]\fIn\^\fP
-where
-.I base
-is a decimal number between two and thirty-six
-representing the arithmetic base
-and
-.I n
-is a number in that base.
-If
-.I base
-is omitted
-then base 10 is used.
-.PP
-An arithmetic expression uses nearly the same syntax, precedence, and
-associativity of
-expressions in C.
-The following operators are supported (listed in decreasing order
-of precedence):
-.PP
-.PD 0
-.RS
-.TP
-.B + \- ! \(ap ++ \-\-
-unary plus/minus, logical NOT, complement, {pre,post}{in,de}crement

-= += \-= *= /= %= &= ^= |= <<= >>= &&= ||= ^^=
-assignment
-.TP
-.B ,
-comma operator
-.PD
-.RE
-.PP
-The operators &&, ||, &&=, and ||= are short-circuiting,
-and only one of the latter two expressions in a ternary operator
-is evaluated.  Note the precedence of the logical AND, OR,
-and XOR operators.
-.PP
-Named parameters can be referenced by name within an arithmetic expression
-without using the parameter substitution syntax.
-.PP
-An internal integer representation of a named parameter
-can be specified with the
-.B integer
-builtin.
-Arithmetic evaluation is performed on the value of each
-assignment to a named parameter declared integer
-in this manner.
-.PP
-Since many of the arithmetic operators require
-quoting, an alternative form of the
-.B let
-command is provided.
-For any command which begins with a
-.BR (( ,
-all the characters until a matching
-.B ))
-are treated as a quoted expression.
-More precisely,
-.BR (( .\|.\|. ))
-is equivalent to
-.B let
-\fB"\fP\|.\|.\|.\fB"\fP.
-.SS Prompting
-When used interactively,
-\fBzsh\fP prompts with the value of
-.B PROMPT
-before reading a command.
-If at any time a newline is typed and further input is needed
-to complete a command, then the secondary prompt
-(that is, the value of
-.BR PROMPT2 )
-is issued.
-.SS Input/Output
-Before a command is executed, its input and output
-may be redirected using a special notation interpreted by \fBzsh\fP.
-The following may appear anywhere in a simple-command
-or may precede or follow a
-.I command
-and are
-.I not
-passed on to the invoked command.
-Substitution occurs before
-.I word
-is used except as noted below.
-If the result of substitution on
-.I word
-produces more than one filename,
-redirection occurs for each
-separate filename in turn.
-.TP 14
-.BI < word
-Use file
-.I word
-as standard input (file descriptor 0).
-.TP
-.BI > word
-Use file
-.I word
-as standard output (file descriptor 1).
-If the file does not exist then it is created.
-If the file exists, and the
-.B clobber
-option is not set,
-this causes an error;
-otherwise, it is truncated to zero length.
-.TP
-.BI >! " word"
-Same as
-.BR > ,
-except that the file is truncated to zero length
-if it exists, even if
-.B clobber
-is not set.
-.TP
-.BI >> word
-Use file
-.I word
-as standard output.
-If the file exists then output is appended to it.
-If the file does not exist, and the
-.B clobber
-option is not set,
-this causes an error;
-otherwise, the file is created.
-.TP
-.BI >>! " word"
-Same as
-.BR >> ,
-except that the file is created if it does not
-exist, even if
-.B clobber
-is not set.
-.TP
-.BI << word
-The shell input is read up to a line that is the same as
-.IR word ,
-or to an end-of-file.
-No parameter substitution, command substitution or
-filename generation is performed on
-.IR word .
-The resulting document,
-called a
-.IR here-document ,
-becomes
-the standard input.
-No interpretation
-is placed upon the characters of the document.
-.TP
-.BI <& digit
-The standard input is duplicated from file descriptor
-.I digit
-(see
-.IR dup (2)).
-Similarly for the standard output using
-.BR >&
-.IR digit .
-.TP
-.BI >& word
-Same as
-.BI > word
-.B 2>&1 .
-.TP
-.BI >>& word
-Same as
-.BI >> word
-.B 2>&1 .
-.TP
-.B <&\-
-The standard input is closed.
-Similarly for the standard output using
-.BR >&\- .
-.TP
-.BI <&! " digit"
-Same as
-.B <&\-
-.BI <& digit .
-.TP
-.BI >&! " digit"
-Same as
-.B >&\-
-.BI >& digit .
-.TP
-.B <&p
-The input from the coprocess is moved to standard input.
-.TP
-.B >&p
-The output to the coprocess is moved to standard output.
-.PP
-If one of the above is preceded by a digit,
-then the
-file descriptor number referred to is that specified
-by the digit
-(instead of the default 0 or 1).
-For example:
-.RS
-.PP
-\&.\|.\|. \|2>&1
-.RE
-.PP
-means file descriptor 2 is to be opened
-for writing as a duplicate
-of file descriptor 1.
-.PP
-The order in which redirections are specified is significant.
-\fBzsh\fP evaluates each redirection in terms of the
-.RI ( "file descriptor" ", " file )
-association at the time of evaluation.
-For example:
-.RS
-.PP
-\&.\|.\|. \|1>\fIfname\^\fP 2>&1
-.RE
-.PP
-first associates file descriptor 1 with file
-.IR fname .
-It then associates file descriptor 2 with the file associated with file
-descriptor 1 (that is,
-.IR fname ).
-If the order of redirections were reversed, file descriptor 2 would be associated
-with the terminal (assuming file descriptor 1 had been) and then file descriptor
-1 would be associated with file
-.IR fname .
-.PP
-If the user tries to open a file descriptor for writing more than once,
-\fBzsh\fP opens the file descriptor as a pipe to a process that copies
-its input to all the specified outputs, similar to tee(1).  Thus:
-.RS
-.PP
-.B date >foo >bar
-.RE
-.PP
-writes the date to two files, named "foo" and "bar".
-Note that a pipe is an implicit indirection; thus
-.RS
-.PP
-.B date >foo | cat
-.RE
-.PP
-writes the date to the file "foo", and also pipes it to cat.
-.PP
-If the user tries to open a file descritor for reading more than once,
-\fBzsh\fP opens the file descriptor as a pipe to a process that copies
-all the specified inputs to its output in the order
-specified, similar to cat(1).  Thus
-.RS
-.PP
-.B sort <foo <fubar
-.RE
-.PP
-or even
-.RS
-.PP
-.B sort <f{oo,ubar}
-.RE
-.PP
-is equivalent to "cat foo bar | sort".  Note that
-a pipe is in implicit indirection; thus
-.RS
-.PP
-.B cat bar | sort <foo
-.RE
-.PP
-is equivalent to "cat bar foo | sort" (note the order of the inputs).
-.PP
-If a simple command consists of one or more redirection operators
-and zero or more parameter assignments, but no command name,
-the command \fBcat\fP is assumed.  Thus
-.RS
-.PP
-.B < file
-.RE
-.PP
-prints the contents of \fBfile\fP.
-.PP
-If a command is followed by
-.B &
-and job control is not active,
-then the default standard input
-for the command
-is the empty file
-.BR /dev/null .
-Otherwise, the environment for the execution of a command contains the
-file descriptors of the invoking shell as modified by
-input/output specifications.
-.SS Environment
-The
-.I environment
-(see
-.IR environ (7))
-is a list of name-value pairs that is passed to
-an executed program in the same way as a normal argument list.
-The names must be
-.I identifiers
-and the values are character strings.
-\fBzsh\fP interacts with the environment in several ways.
-On invocation, \fBzsh\fP scans the environment
-and creates a
-parameter
-for each name found,
-giving it the corresponding value and marking it exported.
-Executed commands inherit the environment.
-If the user modifies the values of these
-parameters
-or creates new ones,
-using the
-.B export
-command they become part of the
-environment.
-The environment seen by any executed command is thus composed
-of any name-value pairs originally inherited by \fBzsh\fP,
-whose values may be modified by the current shell,
-plus any additions
-which must be noted in
-.B export
-commands.
-.PP
-The environment for any
-.I simple-command
-or function
-may be augmented by prefixing it with one or more parameter assignments.
-A parameter assignment argument is a word of the form
-.IR identifier=value .
-Thus:
-.RS
-.PP
-TERM=450 \|cmd \|args                and
-.br
-(export \|TERM; \|TERM=450; \|cmd \|args)
-.RE
-.PP
-are equivalent (as far as the above execution of
-.I cmd
-is concerned).
-.PP
-If the
-.B keyword
-flag is set,
-.I all
-parameter assignment arguments are placed in the environment,
-even if they occur after the command name.
-.SS Function
-.PP
-The
-.B function
-reserved word, described in the
-.I Commands
-section above,
-is used to define shell functions.
-Shell functions are read in and stored internally.
-Alias names are resolved when the function is read.
-Functions are executed like commands with the arguments
-passed as positional parameters.
-(See
-.I Execution
-below).
-.PP
-Functions execute in the same process as the caller and
-share all files
-and present working directory with the
-caller.
-A trap on
-.B EXIT
-set inside a function
-is executed after the function completes in the environment
-of the caller.
-.PP
-The builtin
-.B return
-is used to return
-from function calls.
-Errors within functions return control to the caller.
-.PP
-Function identifiers
-can be listed with the
-.B function
-builtin.
-Functions can be undefined with the
-.B unfunction
-builtin.
-.PP
-The following functions, if defined, have special meaning to \fBzsh\fP:
-.PP
-.PD 0
-.RS
-.TP
-\fBchpwd\fP
-Executed whenever the current working directory is changed.
-.TP
-\fBprecmd\fP
-Executed before each prompt.
-.TP
-\fBperiodic\fP
-If the parameter
-.B PERIOD
-is set, this function is executed every
-.B PERIOD
-minutes, just before a prompt.
-.TP
-\fBTRAPxxx\fP
-If defined and non-null,
-this function will be executed whenever \fBzsh\fP
-catches a signal \fBSIGxxx\fP, where \fBxxx\fP is a signal
-name as specified for the \fBkill\fP builtin (see below).
-In addition, \fBTRAPERR\fP is executed whenever a command has a non-zero
-exit status, \fBTRAPDEBUG\fP is executed after each command, and
-\fBTRAPEXIT\fP
-is executed when \fBzsh\fP exits,
-or when the current function exits if defined
-inside a function.
-If a function of this form is defined and null,
-\fBzsh\fP and processes spawned by it will ignore \fBSIGxxx\fP.
-.PD
-.RE
-.SS Jobs
-.PP
-If the
-.B monitor
-option of the
-.B set
-command is turned on,
-an interactive shell associates a \fIjob\fR with each pipeline.
-It keeps
-a table of current jobs, printed by the
-.B jobs
-command, and assigns them small integer numbers.
-When a job is started asynchronously with
-.BR & ,
-\fBzsh\fP prints a line which looks
-like:
-.PP
-.DT
-    [1] 1234
-.PP
-indicating that the job which was started asynchronously was job number
-1 and had one (top-level) process, whose process id was 1234.
-.PP
-If you are running a job and wish to do something else you may hit the key
-\fB^Z\fR (control-Z) which sends a STOP signal to the current job.
-\fBzsh\fP will then normally indicate that the job has been `suspended',
-and print another prompt.
-You can then manipulate the state of this job,
-putting it in the background with the
-.B bg
-command, or run some other
-commands and then eventually bring the job back into the foreground with
-the foreground command
-.BR fg .
-A \fB^Z\fR takes effect immediately and
-is like an interrupt in that pending output and unread input are discarded
-when it is typed.
-.PP
-A job being run in the background will suspend if it tries to read
-from the terminal.
-Background jobs are normally allowed to produce output,
-but this can be disabled by giving the command ``stty tostop''.
-If you set this
-tty option, then background jobs will suspend when they try to produce
-output like they do when they try to read input.
-.PP
-There are several ways to refer to jobs in \fBzsh\fP.
-A job can be referred to by the process id of any process of the job
-or by one of the following:
-.PD 0
-.TP
-.BI % number
-The job with the given number.
-.TP
-.BI % string
-Any job whose command line begins with
-.IR string .
-.TP
-.BI %? string
-Any job whose command line contains
-.IR string .
-.TP
-.BI %%
-Current job.
-.TP
-.BI %+
-Equivalent to
-.BR %% .
-.TP
-.BI %\-
-Previous job.
-.PD
-.PP
-\fBzsh\fP learns immediately whenever a process changes state.
-It normally informs you whenever a job becomes blocked so that
-no further progress is possible.  If
-.B notify
-is not set, it waits until
-just before it prints
-a prompt before it informs you.
-.PP
-When the monitor mode is on, each background job that completes
-triggers any trap set for
-.BR CHLD .
-.PP
-When you try to leave \fBzsh\fP while jobs are running or suspended, you will
-be warned that `You have suspended (running) jobs.'
-You may use the
-.B jobs
-command to see what they are.
-If you do this or immediately try to
-exit again, \fBzsh\fP will not warn you a second time; the suspended
-jobs will be terminated, and the running jobs will be sent
-a \fBSIGHUP\fP signal.
-To avoid having \fBzsh\fP terminate the running jobs, either
-use the \fBnohup\fP(1) command or the \fBdisown\fP builtin (see below).
-.SS Signals
-The INT and QUIT signals for an invoked
-command are ignored if the command is followed by
-.B &
-and job
-.B monitor
-option is not active.
-Otherwise, signals have the values
-inherited by \fBzsh\fP from its parent
-(but see the \fBTRAPxxx\fP special function above).
-.SS Execution
-Each time a command is executed, the above substitutions
-are carried out.
-If the command name matches one
-of the
-.I builtins
-listed below,
-it is executed within the
-current shell process.
-Next, the command name is checked to see if
-it matches one of the user defined functions.
-If it does,
-the positional parameters are saved
-and then reset to the arguments of the
-.I function
-call.
-When the
-.I function
-completes or issues a
-.BR return ,
-the positional parameter list is restored
-and any trap set on
-.B EXIT
-within the function is executed.
-The value of a
-.I function
-is the value of the last command executed.
-A function is also executed in the
-current shell process.
-If a command name is not a
-.I builtin
-or a user defined
-.IR function ,
-a process is created and
-an attempt is made to execute the command via
-.IR exec (2).
-.PP
-The shell parameter
-.B PATH
-defines the search path for
-the directory containing the command.
-Alternative directory names are separated by
-a colon.
-The default path is
-.B /bin:/usr/bin:
-(specifying
-.BR /bin ,
-.BR /usr/bin ,
-and the current directory
-in that order).
-The current directory can be specified by
-two or more adjacent colons, or by a colon
-at the beginning or end of the path list.
-If the command name contains a \fB/\fP then the search path
-is not used.
-Otherwise, each directory in the path is
-searched for an executable file.
-.PP
-Whenever \fBzsh\fP executes an external command, it gives
-control of the tty to the command.  If the command
-completes with a zero return code, \fBzsh\fP does not reset
-the tty; otherwise, the tty modes are reset to what they were
-before the command was executed.  If a process is suspended,
-\fBzsh\fP saves the state of the tty and resets the tty modes;
-if the process is later restarted, the tty modes are restored
-to what they were when the process was suspended.
-.SS Command Re-entry.
-The text of the last
-.B HISTSIZE
-(default 128)
-commands entered from a terminal device
-is saved in memory.
-The builtin
-.B fc
-is used to list or
-edit a portion of this file.
-The portion of the file to be edited or listed can be selected by
-number or by giving the first character or
-characters of the command.
-A single command or range of commands can be specified.
-If you do not specify an editor program as
-an argument to
-.B fc
-then the value of the parameter
-.B FCEDIT
-is used.
-If
-.B FCEDIT
-is not defined then
-.B /usr/ucb/vi
-is used.
-The edited command(s) is printed and re-executed upon
-leaving the editor.
-The editor name
-.B \-
-is used to skip the editing phase and
-to re-execute the command.
-In this case a substitution parameter of the form
-\fIold\fP\fB=\fP\fInew\fP
-can be used to modify the command before execution.
-For example, if
-.B r
-is aliased to
-.B \(fmfc \-e \-\(fm
-then typing
-`\fBr bad=good c\fP'
-will re-execute the most recent command which starts with the letter
-.BR c ,
-replacing the first occurrence of the string
-.B bad
-with the string
-.BR good .
-.SS Readline
-This is the library that handles reading input when using an interactive
-shell.
-By default, the line editing commands
-are similar to those of Emacs.
-A vi-style line editing interface is also available.
-.PP
-In this section, the Emacs\-style notation is used to denote
-keystrokes.  Control keys are denoted by C\-\fIkey\fR, e.g. C\-n
-means Control\-N.  Similarly,
-.I meta
-keys are denoted by M\-\fIkey\fR, so M\-x means Meta\-X.  (On keyboards
-without a
-.I meta
-key, M\-\fIx\fP means ESC \fIx\fP, i.e. press the Escape key
-then the
-.I x
-key.
-The combination M\-C\-\fIx\fP means ESC\-Control\-\fIx\fP,
-or press the Escape key
-then hold the Control key while pressing the
-.I x
-key.)
-.PP
-You may change the default key\-bindings with an
-.B \(ap/.inputrc
-file.  Other
-programs that use this library may add their own commands and bindings.
-.PP
-For example, if you wanted to make M\-C\-u execute the command
-.IR universal\-argument ,
-then
-in your
-.B \(ap/.inputrc
-file you would put:
-.RS
-.PP
-M\-Control\-u: universal\-argument
-.RE
-or
-.RS
-C\-Meta\-u: universal\-argument
-.RE
-.PP
-You can use the following names for characters: RUBOUT, DEL, ESC,
-NEWLINE, SPACE, RETURN, LFD, TAB.
-.PP
-You can start with a vi-like editing mode by placing
-.RS
-.PP
-set editing-mode vi
-.RE
-.PP
-in your
-.B \(ap/.inputrc
-file.
-.PP
-You can have readline use a single line for display, scrolling the input
-between the two borders by placing
-.RS
-.PP
-set horizontal\-scroll\-mode On
-.RE
-.PP
-in your
-.B \(ap/.inputrc
-file.
-.PP

-.SS Invocation
-The shell first executes the the file
-\fB/etc/zshrc\fP

-\fB\(ap/.zshrc\fP,
-if it exists.
-If the shell is invoked by
-.IR exec (2),
-and the first character of argument zero
-.RB ( $0 )
-is
-.BR \- ,
-then the shell is assumed to be a
-.I login
-shell and
-commands are read from
-.B /etc/zlogin
-and
-.BR \(ap/.zshrc ,
-if it exists.
-If the
-.B \-s
-flag is not present and
-.I arg
-is, then the first
-.I arg
-is taken as the name of the script to execute.
-The script
-.I arg
-must have read permission and any
-.I setuid
-and
-.I getgid
-settings will be ignored.
-Commands are then read as described below;
-the following flags are interpreted by the shell
-when it is invoked:
-.PP
-.PD 0
-.TP 10
-.BI \-c "\| string"
-If the
-.B \-c
-flag is present then
-commands are read from
-.IR string .
-.TP
-.B \-s
-If the
-.B \-s
-flag is present or if no
-arguments remain
-then commands are read from the standard input.
-Shell output,
-except for the output of the
-.I builtins
-listed above,
-is written to
-file descriptor 2.
-.TP
-.B \-i
-If the
-.B \-i
-flag is present or
-if the shell input and output are attached to a terminal (as told by
-.IR ioctl (2))
-then this shell is
-.IR interactive .
-In this case TERM is ignored (so that \fBkill 0\fP
-does not kill an interactive shell) and INTR is caught and ignored.
-In all cases, QUIT is ignored by the shell.
-.PD
-.PP
-The remaining flags and arguments are described under the
-.B setopt
-command above.
-.SH EXIT STATUS
-Errors detected by the shell, such as syntax errors,
-cause the shell
-to return a non-zero exit status.
-Otherwise, the shell returns the exit status of
-the last command executed (see also the
-.B exit
-command above).
-If the shell is being used non-interactively
-then execution of the shell file is abandoned.
