# Source Prezto.
if [[ -s "${ZDOTDIR:-$HOME}/.zprezto/init.zsh" ]]; then
  source "${ZDOTDIR:-$HOME}/.zprezto/init.zsh"
fi
alias ls='ls -1 -F -a'
alias cp='cp -p'
alias vsound='vsound  -t'
alias rsyncwlym='rsync --progress -avh -e "ssh -p 2222 -l covici"'
alias rsyncasterisk='rsync --progress -av -e "ssh -l martin"'
umask o-rx
prompt gentoo
setopt clobber
