[Pkg-mc-devel] Bug#665291: mc: no (documented) startup scripts for zsh subshell

[Samuel Bronson]

Package: mc
Version: 3:4.8.1-2
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

The mc help file and the mc(1) manpage say, in the section named "The
subshell support":

,----
|        The subshell support is a compile time option, that works  with
|        the shells: bash, tcsh and zsh.

[irrelevant stuff snipped]

|        If  you are using bash you can specify startup commands for the
|        subshell in your ~/.local/share/mc/bashrc file and special key‐
|        board  maps  in the ~/.local/share/mc/inputrc file.  tcsh users
|        may specify startup commands  in  the  ~/.local/share/mc/tcshrc
|        file.
`----

What if I'm using zsh? Don't I get any rc files then?
