---------------------------------------------
|

|

This is the `main` highlighter, that highlights:

|
* Arguments
|
|
|

This highlighter is active by default.

|
|
|
|
To override one of those styles, change its entry in `ZSH_HIGHLIGHT_STYLES`,
|
|
|
|
for example in `~/.zshrc`:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# Declare the variable
|
|
|
|
typeset -A ZSH_HIGHLIGHT_STYLES
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# To differentiate aliases from other command types
|
|
|
|
ZSH_HIGHLIGHT_STYLES[alias]='fg=magenta,bold'
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# To have paths colored instead of underlined
|
|
|
|
ZSH_HIGHLIGHT_STYLES[path]='fg=cyan'
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# To disable highlighting of globbing expressions
|
|
|
|
ZSH_HIGHLIGHT_STYLES[globbing]='none'
|
|
|

|
|
The syntax for values is the same as the syntax of "types of highlighting" of
|
|
|
|
the zsh builtin `$zle_highlight` array, which is documented in [the `zshzle(1)`
|
|
|
|
manual page][zshzle-Character-Highlighting].
