Hi,

After installing xmonad on an Arch Linux system, my zsh history has begun to misbehave. HISTFILE is read from .zshenv after logging into the console, but once I start xmonad and a terminal, HISTFILE is empty. The other environment variables from .zshenv have their expected values.

I should note that I don't know whether switching from LightDM/XFCE to
xmonad has anything to do with this issue. I mention it only because of
the timing.

Here is a link to my .zshenv: https://git.theadamcooper.com/adam/dotfiles/src/branch/master/arch/zsh/.zshenv

Any ideas would be welcome. Thanks!
