My .zshrc may not suit your needs. Feel free to read and
understand. Steal anything. My opinion is that you can't have an
universal .zshrc. If you don't agree, take a look at
Prezto.
You need to create your own .zshrc. First solution is to symlink
~/.zsh/zshrc. The other solution is to source ~/.zsh/zshrc from
your own ~/.zshrc. The later case allows you to set the plugin you
want to enable.
You can copy your installation to a remote host with install-zsh
function.
~/.zsh/run contains runtime files, like history. ~/.zsh/local
contains local files that should not be copied to a remote host.
I am targetting compatibility with Zsh 5.0.2 (the one in CentOS 7,
5.0.7 is in Jessie). Notably, I cannot use local array=(el1 el2), as
this is only allowed since Zsh 5.1.
If you are one of those young people not concerned about arbitrary code execution, you can do:
curl -sL https://github.com/vincentbernat/zshrc/releases/download/latest/zsh-install.sh | sh
