EDITOR=emacs should absolutely not be there. That was a mistake. I
left that in from my own personal configuration. I will take that out.
I will try to consider a better way to handle the prompt in zsh to fix
that problem. If anyone has any suggestions that don't involve messing
with bash files, let me know. I will make all these changes and upload
a new package sometime soon like tomorrow. Today its homework and
computer games, though :).
