The Linux Manuals (man pages) document is an important part of Linux documents. Linux Manuals are organized as several sections. Each section has a group of commands for a specific area in Linux usage, administration or development.
NAME zshoptions – zsh options SPECIFYING OPTIONS Options are primarily referred to by name. These names are case insensitive and underscores are ignored. For example, `allexport‘ is equivalent to `A__lleXP_ort‘. The sense of an option name may be inverted by preceding it with `no‘, so `setopt No_Beep‘ is equivalent to `unsetopt beep‘. This inversion can…
NAME zshmodules – zsh loadable modules DESCRIPTION Some optional parts of zsh are in modules, separate from the core of the shell. Each of these modules may be linked in to the shell at build time, or can be dynamically linked while the shell is running if the installation supports this feature. Modules are linked…

NAME zshcompwid – zsh completion widgets DESCRIPTION The shell’s programmable completion mechanism can be manipulated in two ways; here the low-level features supporting the newer, function-based mechanism are defined.

NAME zshcompsys – zsh completion system DESCRIPTION This describes the shell code for the `new’ completion system, referred to as compsys. It is written in shell functions based on the features described in zshcompwid(1). The features are contextual, sensitive to the point at which completion is started.

NAME zshbuiltins – zsh built-in commands SHELL BUILTIN COMMANDS Some shell builtin commands take options as described in individual entries; these are often referred to in the list below as `flags‘ to avoid confusion with shell options, which may also have an effect on the behaviour of builtin commands. In this introductory section, `option‘ always…
NAME zshall – the Z shell meta-man page OVERVIEW Because zsh contains many features, the zsh manual has been split into a number of sections. This manual page includes all the separate manual pages in the following order: zsh Zsh overview zshroadmap Informal introduction to the manual zshmisc Anything not fitting into the other sections…

NAME zsh-lovers – tips, tricks and examples for the Z shell SYNOPSIS Just read it. ;-) OVERVIEW Whenever we look at the zsh manual we wonder why there are no examples or those simply things in (shell) life. The zsh contains many features, but there was no manpage with some examples (like procmailex(5)). That’s why…
NAME zrun – automatically uncompress arguments to command SYNOPSIS zrun command file.gz […] DESCRIPTION Prefixing a shell command with “zrun” causes any compressed files that are arguments of the command to be transparently uncompressed to temp files (not pipes) and the uncompressed files fed to the command.
