In a more recent post you claimed you don't have much understanding
of things at this level. OK, but then: did you manually switch from
the default bash shell to zsh? I wonder what else is different in
your system (and that you might not be aware of) that could be
making the system type check fail...
Sorry for the confusion.
At the shell/commandline level, I know my way around a lot. Been
doing that for 12+ years.
On the gcc/programming/compiling level, I know "configure" and "make"
and "make install".... if that doesn't work, I'm hosed.
Sorta like being a good driver but having no idea what to do under
the hood of a car :-)
I started using zsh back in the day because I had a friend who was a
programmer who taught me how to do a lot with it back when t/csh was
what most people were using and I was trying to write scripts, etc.
Have used it ever since.
