2:27PM ::
Slow day. Heard about Z shell the other day, looked into some of the documentation. Claims it combines the best of bash, ksh, and tcsh and improves on some things. So, I've decided to give it a try. In the process of configuring it now. Here's the zsh Arch Wiki.

12:46AM ::
Update (technically it's next day). While zsh is nice, new, and shiny, I've determined that bash cannot be ruled out completely. While zsh might have some improved features, bash is still a more commonly used scripting language. However, I do like zsh as an interactive shell, and once I have it configured to my liking, it will no doubt outpace bash.

1:20AM ::
Came accross this script, after the user dumps the output of pacman -Ss to a file, the script parses the file and outputs a better formatted version of the data. Minor error toware the end, line 193 should read "if which zenity &> /dev/null..." so as to redirect error output as well as the which function's normal output.
