Mac OS X Lion zsh installation with brew guide
brew install zsh cd $HOME git clone https://github.com/robbyrussell/oh-my-zsh.git .oh-my-zsh sudo chsh -s /usr/local/bin/zsh yourusernamehere cp ~/.oh-my-zsh/templates/zshrc.zsh-template ~/.zshrc
Since I am a git nut, I fell in love with zsh right away after I saw the following when I was testing the auto-completion feature of zsh (glad the default zshrc.zsh-template has git enabled in the plugins setting):
The big yellow X means there are changes under current repository, “exp” in red is the name of the current branch. Once I committed the changes, the big yellow X sign disappeared. In other words I don’t even need to type git status to check if current repository is clean – can’t stop loving this feature.

Great thanks that is the best (because simple) tutorial I found to install zsh for newbies.
