Adding the FAQ entry for zsh.

But buggy applications like bash and irssi for example don't do this. A fast

solution for them is to use the following command:

 | 
			
		||||
	$ echo ^[?1h^[= >/dev/tty
 |

	$ printf "\033?1h\033=" >/dev/tty

or

	$ echo $(tput smkx) >/dev/tty

If you are using zsh, then read the zsh FAQ
 | 
			
		||||
(http://zsh.sourceforge.net/FAQ/zshfaq03.html#l25):
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
	It should be noted that the O / [ confusion can occur with other keys
 | 
			
		||||
	such as Home and End. Some systems let you query the key sequences
 | 
			
		||||
	sent by these keys from the system's terminal database, terminfo.
 | 
			
		||||
	Unfortunately, the key sequences given there typically apply to the
 | 
			
		||||
	mode that is not the one zsh uses by default (it's the "application"
 | 
			
		||||
	mode rather than the "raw" mode). Explaining the use of terminfo is
 | 
			
		||||
	outside of the scope of this FAQ, but if you wish to use the key
 | 
			
		||||
	sequences given there you can tell the line editor to turn on
 | 
			
		||||
	"application" mode when it starts and turn it off when it stops:
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
		function zle-line-init () { echoti smkx }
 | 
			
		||||
		function zle-line-finish () { echoti rmkx }
 | 
			
		||||
		zle -N zle-line-init
 | 
			
		||||
		zle -N zle-line-finish
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
Putting these lines into your .zshrc will fix the problems.
