    I wasn't familiar with zsh until I used grml (a fairly handy debian-based live distro, I use for fixing things on occasion). It comes with a pretty spiffy zshrc and zsh by default, which opened me to some of the features of it... pretty nifty... Now I use zsh on everything.

    Some info about grml's use of zsh, here.

    You should have got a Windows style C:prompt, including truncated directroy names if they were over 8 characters.

    Try an "export" before the command, and see if that helps
