# ZSH
## Install
Install for this follows the norm for the rest of the dotfiles. `cd` to this directory and run
```make install```
or if you are on a machine where BSD Make is installed by default:
```gmake install```
## File Structure.
The file structure looks something like this: Nodes with a trailing "δ" are directories.
```

├── makefile
