[Zsh](http://www.zsh.org) should be installed (v4.3.9 or more recent). If not pre-installed (`zsh --version` to confirm), follow the following step to make it work:
+ 1. Install with your package manager of choice (ie: `sudo apt-get install zsh`)
+ 2. Make sure it installed by running `zsh`
+ 3. Make it your default shell: `chsh -s $(which zsh)`
+ 4. Log out and back in.
### Zsh?
Oh-My-Zsh is a framework for [Zsh](http://www.zsh.org), the Z shell.
* In order for Oh-My-Zsh to work, Zsh must be installed (v4.3.9 or more recent).
* Please run `zsh --version` to confirm.
* Additionally, Zsh should be set as your default shell.
* Please run `echo $SHELL` from a new terminal to confirm.
### Install Zsh
If you need to, follow the following step to make it work:
1. Install Zsh
* with your package manager of choice (ie: `sudo apt-get install zsh`)
* from [source](http://zsh.sourceforge.net/Arc/source.html), following [instructions from the Zsh FAQ](http://zsh.sourceforge.net/FAQ/zshfaq01.html#l7)
2. Make sure it installed by running `zsh --version`
3. Make it your default shell: `chsh -s $(chsh -l | grep "zsh" -m 1)`
* Note that this will not work if Zsh is not in your authorized shells list (`/etc/shells`)
4. Re-open all terminals and make sure it worked by running `echo $SHELL`.
