I used to do this with bash...

/bin/bash --rcfile /home/sindhu/bin/misc_scripts/shellrc/.bashrc_1

how can I accomplish the same with zsh?

Thank you.z

I'm a bash user willing to switch to a more friendly and advanced shell. I read a lot of good things about zsh, but I gave a quick test at fish and it seems great too. Both seem very close in term of features, what is your opinion about those two shells especially as regards shell programming? >>> More

zsh make **/*.cpp **/*.cxx **/*.hpp not result in error

I have "v" aliased to "vim */.cpp */.hpp */.cxx" Problem is, if I'm in a directory without any .cxx files, zsh treats this as an error. Is there anyway to tell zsh to create the absence of */*.cxx files as "" instead of an error? >>> More
