From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Possibly a n00b question. What’s the benefit of fish over zsh or bash? Does it provide something extra?
I’m using zsh at the moment.
The auto suggestion from Fish shell is something I cannot live without anymore. Saves me so much time and avoiding typos. Not sure if zsh can do the same, maybe with a plugin ? If so, I'd like to hear about it. I use zsh for a few things, besides bash and fish to keep their history apart.
There IS a plugin for zsh that does exactly that and I've been using it without issue for a few months now!

Thanks. Got it installed, and works after reading the Debian README :
Last time I checked it's like zsh but preconfigured and dumbed down. Like the zsh4humans repo, but worse.
