====== Z Shell ======
After installation (apt-get install zsh), one can change the default shell by invoking chsh command. If the person is root, the default shell for every user is changed, otherwise just the current users.
===== Keyboard Shortcuts =====

ctrl+r searches, ctrl+r again searches even further ...
ctrl+u deletes line (like pressing backspace until line is empty)

(Almost) All infos come from [[http://blog.peter1402.de/archives/2008/03/20/ZSH-madness|Beters Plog]].
