Hey sublime,

Good the shell works, and I wouldn't worry too much about bash vs zsh, they=
're
the same idea.  They're both POSIX shells, which means they implement the
unix spec and can execute #!/bin/sh scripts like all the other POSIX shells=
,
so you're learning *real* shell syntax.  What you learn with zsh applies
to bash and sh.  The main benefit of zsh is the interactive use, nicer tab
completion etc., at least once configured like with tiles-shell.

Glad the coordinates are better and I agree about the crowding.

Make sure you ran `sudo ./install-numen` or goblins will sour your milk.

I know nothing about jobs and that, I'm hoping to get somewhere writing
free software.  qutebrowser and its success with donations gives me hope.
Besides numen, I'd like to write a game and the software to make it possibl=
e
to create and play it handsfree, but I might need to think ahead more.
