The zsh_reload plugin defines a function to reload the zsh session with just a few keystrokes.
To use it, add zsh_reload
to the plugins array in your zshrc file:
plugins=(... zsh_reload)
To reload the zsh session, just run src
:
$ vim ~/.zshrc # enabled a plugin
$ src
re-compiling /home/user/.zshrc.zwc: succeeded
re-compiling /home/user/.oh-my-zsh/cache/zcomp-host.zwc: succeeded
# you now have a fresh zsh session. happy hacking!
