setting up new zsh with oh my zsh

firs installing zsh involves

brew install zsh

While I don’t really trust and run randomly downloaded shell files. This one is quite painless.

sh -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ohmyzsh/ohmyzsh/master/tools/install.sh)"

typical packages:

• git
• zsh-autosuggestions
• poetry
• zsh-syntax-highlighting
• command-time
• poetry

plugins=(git zsh-autosuggestions poetry zsh-syntax-highlighting command-time poetry)

problems
