r/zsh

This is my first Zig project!!!

Part of my workflow is to use fzf to search my command history. And I always wanted to have a cli-tool to clean duplicate commands from my history (I don't know if such a tool already exists, I never searched). I could've tried to write that tool in any other language (Python, bash, C#) but the task wasn't interesting, and I wanted it to be a proper bin.

When I started learning Zig, it seemed a proper starting point to make a file manipulation project. So, histclean was born. A cli-tool to clean command history.

Since it's my first project, I'm looking for some feedback, or if someone can review my code. I want to learn more about Zig, but it's tiresome to feel I'm working alone. So any input is welcomed.

Another point is that, I use bash and I never used zsh or any other shell. And I think I could benefit some feedback regarding them, or if some use cases could generate bugs or unexpected output.

A list of things I still don't understand enough to have full confidence about:

• build.zig and the build system.
• fuzzy testing.

I use iterm2 on Mac with zsh today and I have evaluated ghosttly also.

I like starship for my prompt but I also liked oh-my-zsh in the past.

I have the same problem with iterm2 and ghosttly. Tab title is bad and the font is too small.

In iterm I am able to set the title to exactly PWD regardless if I e.g. start Claude code. In ghost it is not possible. I also like the color options in iterm2 much more. I don’t want pwd, just the current directory, but that seem impossible.

Iterm has some advanced settings that increases the font, but that breaks pwd as title.

Did anyone figure out how to enjoy large font tab title that is just the directory? And also hopefully possible to set the tab color across the whole tab
