zsh configuration proposal

[Eric Hattemer]

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 :).
