Needless to say this is exploratory:


function zshaddhistory ()
{
LITERAL=( "${(@s/;/)1}" )
#print -rl $LITERAL

LITERAL[1]=${LITERAL[1]/ #/}
LITERAL[2]=${LITERAL[2]/ #/}
LITERAL[3]=${LITERAL[3]/ #/}
LITERAL[4]=${LITERAL[4]/ #/}
LITERAL[5]=${LITERAL[5]/ #/}
#print -r $LITERAL[1]
#print -r $LITERAL[2]
#print -r $LITERAL[3]
#print -r $LITERAL[4]
#print -r $LITERAL[5]
}

function test ()
{
    print -r "you typed: $LITERAL[1]"
}


$ test \r * \n""''
you typed: test \r * \n""''

$ test $HOST
you typed: test $HOST



... but it seems to do exactly what I want the only thing lacking is to 
associate each

member of the array to the appropriate command, if there are several on 
the same line.

I can think of a few hacks that might do it, but is there a robust way?  
Would precmd()

be able to keep count?  Something of that nature?  This is going to come 
out right.
