prezto/modules/pacman/README.md
Indrajit Raychaudhuri 1ff9421f7b general: Update documentation better qualifying runcom paths 
Zsh and Prezto files don't always reside in `~/`. Instead, they have
a more spec compliant location (`${ZDOTDIR:-$HOME}/`). Make them
unambiguous in the documentation. Likewise, for `$GNUPGHOME`.

Further, add instruction for optionally setting up Prezto in
`$XDG_CONFIG_HOME`.

While at this, also add clarification on relative ordering of some of
the modules, apply more formatting tweaks and doc improvements.

Pacman

Provides aliases and functions for the Pacman package manager and frontends.

Settings

It is possible to use a Pacman frontend with the pacman aliases provided by this package as long as that frontend supports the same command line options (The AUR Helpers page has a good comparison which lists if the command line options are pacman compatible).

Please note that installing packages with an AUR Helper is not officially supported by Archlinux. It is currently recommended to manually build AUR packages using the provided instructions. The aurutils project has a set of small utilities to make this easier.

To enable a different Pacman frontend, add the following to ${ZDOTDIR:-$HOME}/.zpreztorc, and replace '<frontend>' with the name of the preferred frontend.

zstyle ':prezto:module:pacman' frontend '<frontend>'
