Oh-my-zsh gets big performance updates

I'll admit upfront that bash may well be able to do the following, but what sold me on ZSH is that by installing ZSH and then oh-my-zsh, I had a shell that was doing things that no shell has ever done for me before:

* Fuzzy completion of paths: I now find myself typing things like: scr/mus_ser<tab> and having that expand to script/musicbrainz_server.pl. It feels very natural!

* Interactive tab completion: I now usually queue music with: nyxmms2 add /media/music/<tab><tab><tab> and I can now select an artist using my arrow keys from all the tab completions. This of course works anywhere that you can use completion (ie, filename completion).

* Corrective typing: If I make a mistake typing something, ZSH notices and asks me if I want to correct this: "mv moneyz.csv ~/backups" might say "Did you mean moneys.csv" (assuming moneyz.csv doesn't exist).

* Completion seems to work in so many more places. For example, I can use tab completion with scp and ssh and it completes paths on the remote machine. This is seriously useful.

Like I said, you might very well be able to do all this with bash and other shells. But I don't have to worry about setting it up, because it's all just done for me now.

Care to point me to a good "Why you should use zsh, instead of bash" guide / page?

That should be happening in Bash too...

There is a secret undocumented update command:

  cd ~/.oh-my-zsh; git pull origin master

there is a documented one: upgrade_oh_my_zsh

tbere's a broken auto-updater that'll be fixed asap!
