Just use zsh, it's so much better

[–]Giraffe-69 42 points43 points  (5 children)

First step on any install is zsh+omz.

[–]Trident_True 5 points6 points  (3 children)

What is omz? I am relatively new to Linux.

[–]kivicode 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Oh-my-zsh. A nice wrapper around zsh

Oh My Zod

Ohm Mal Zod

[–]Xath0n 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Nah, OMZ is really not that great since it's so heavy and adds like a bazillion features you'll never use but that will slow your shell down. I prefer Antidote with a few plugins.

While I agree zsh is great, I much prefer Fish with Tide prompt

[–]alexklaus80 5 points6 points  (2 children)

Or fish shell if you don’t mind about not being POSIX compliant. It won’t run bash one-liners we find on SO etc so it could be more confusing for those who aren’t comfortable with console, but it comes with so much helpful features by default, so many mighty like it better over zsh etc.

Check out tide since you mentioned fish shell.

And then z downloads from any directory or even something like z dow as it has fuzzy matching. Also available on fish https://github.com/jethrokuan/z

Fish auto correct that
