Using shellsink with ZSH is easy

You don't have to use bash to use shellsink. Shellsink will work with any shell that supports the following features:

• Concept of a command that always executes before your command is run
• Concept of a history file
• Concept of appending to the history file each time you run a command

Z-Shell is another great shell and when configured correctly it supports all these things. Here is a set of instructions to make shellsink work for zsh.

1. Grab the sample zshrc
2. Concatenate that to ~/.zshrc
3. make a symlink from .bash_history to .zhistory like this:

   ln -s ~/.zhistory ~/.bash_history

4. Restart your shell

Easy, right? Here is a list of my References:
