# The Z Shell Manual

This Info file documents Zsh, a freely available UNIX command interpreter (shell), which of the standard shells most closely resembles the Korn shell (ksh), although it is not completely compatible. Zsh is able to emulate POSIX shells, but its default mode is not POSIX compatible, either.

Version 5.9, last updated May 14, 2022.
