wbase

A stripped down version of Grml's zsh config.

Why?

Faster startup. wbase.zsh avoids the many Zsh version checks of Grml's config (requires Zsh 5.4 or newer)
Better integration with plugin managers like zplug
No prompt, because there are better alternatives. You can set your own prompt for example with git-prompt.zsh or powerlevel10k

zplug "woefe/wbase.zsh"

Clone this repo or download the wbase.zsh file. Then source it in your .zshrc. For example:

mkdir -p ~/.zsh
git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/woefe/wbase.zsh ~/.zsh/wbase.zsh
echo "source ~/.zsh/wbase.zsh/wbase.zsh" >> .zshrc

less colors
ls colors (requires alias ls=ls --color=auto)
text width of man limited to 120 characters
Menu completion with sections
Large history (100000 items)
Autopushd and persistent dirstack
Easier dirstack handling. (Type cd -<TAB> or cd +<TAB> to go to recently visited directories)
Terminal title for xterm based terminals
Useful keybindings:
- Alt+q: push-line; save current command line, and re-display in next prompt.
- Alt+h: run-help; show man page of current command
- Alt+1 to Alt+5: get first to fifth parameter of previous command
Useful functions:
- mkcd: make directory and cd into it
- cdt: make a temporary directory and cd into it
- cl: change directory and list files
- mkqrcode: create QR-Code from stdin or arguments (depends on qrencode)
