Description-en: Fish shell like syntax highlighting for zsh
This package provides syntax highlighting for the shell zsh. It enables
highlighting of commands whilst they are typed at a zsh prompt into an
interactive terminal. This helps in reviewing commands before running
them, particularly in catching syntax errors.
.
This feature is inspired by the Fish shell, which provides it by default.
.
There are numerous ways to configure the colors used for highlighting,
and to configure what is highlighted.
