I'll bend it to my will as much as I can, however 90% of changes since I 
started have been me getting used to zsh rather than the other way 
around.  Still, you don't know what you don't know and however naive, my 
comment blocks do work.   If there's a crash and burn coming up I'm sure 
I'll burn.

I'm prepared to find out the hard way.  Guys like me suffer.

There's an interesting idea!  My editor doesn't but that would be quite 
a feature.
