    There is a thing which provides zsh completions. It’s zsh. If that’s what you’re wanting, then maybe don’t stop using it?

    “In my experience Emacs simply isn’t a very good terminal to run a shell in anyway”

    Do you know about vterm and eat? If yes, what is the problem with these?

      not OP, but i tried eat for about 2 seconds and immediately gave up. The backspace key produces spaces.

      Then I tried vterm. The backspace key works! OK the basics are out of the way. Let’s try my basic git workflow, using ncurses program tig to view a log. Nope, lots of random jumpy scrolling.

      Maybe these issues have work arounds. But iterm2 + tmux + Emacs already work flawlessly. Years of use with 0 issues.
