====== Initialization Options ======

''all_export''
  * automagically export defined variables; not recommended.

''global_export''
  * if set, parameters defined in functions are defined in global contexts as well; I don't like that one.

''rcs''
  * if unset, none of the [[config:files|initialization files]] are sourced (except for the global zshenv file).
  * this also affects history saving: when 'rcs' is unset, the shell history will *not* be saved to $HISTFILE.

''global_rcs''
  * if unset the global 'zprofile', 'zshrc', 'zlogin' and 'zlogout' files are not read.

''login''
  * login shell. this option can be set manually or automatically when the shell is invoked as '-' (actually, when the first character of argv[0] is '-')

====== Files loaded on startup ======
The following files will be sourced in this order if they exist, provided the options on the right are set. See also //STARTUP/SHUTDOWN FILES// in **zsh**(1).
